Production facilities run continuous material flows across multiple zones, lines, and shifts. Raw materials arrive from suppliers, move through processing stages, generate waste and scrap, and exit as finished goods. Forklifts and warehouse trucks are present at every one of these stages.The challenge is not weighing at one point. The challenge is capturing accurate weight data at each stage without creating manual entry steps, separate weighing stations, or workflow interruptions that production supervisors will work around.LOGIWEIGH systems turn the handling equipment already inside the facility into active weighing and reporting points, connected directly to the ERP or production management system.Reference customers include Strauss, which uses LOGIWEIGH weighing systems for goods receipt in its production facilities, with weight data flowing directly into the ERP through the LOGIWEIGH WebService layer.
Raw material deliveries are invoiced by weight. Most production facilities rely on supplier-declared weights unless verification happens during unloading. Without that verification, short deliveries are absorbed as production losses rather than resolved as supplier claims. A weight discrepancy caught at receipt is a recoverable event. A discrepancy discovered during production is a cost.
When materials move between production lines, storage areas, or processing stages, weight records create accountability at each transfer point. Without recorded weights, discrepancies between what was sent and what was received accumulate invisibly across the facility.
Production waste and scrap have measurable value, whether for recycling, disposal cost calculation, or yield analysis. Tracking waste weight by production line provides the data needed for yield improvement. Facilities that track waste weight by source and destination have the data to reduce it. Facilities that estimate do not.
LOGIWEIGH systems transmit weight data in real time over your existing Wi-Fi network using WPA3 encrypted communication. Through our WebService layer, data flows directly into your ERP or WMS with no manual entry or intermediate steps.
Additional integrations available via API and WEBSERVICE
Finished goods leaving the facility are weighed before dispatch, either at the point of palletizing or at the point of loading. The weight record is tied to the shipment reference and sent to the ERP, supporting freight billing accuracy and providing documentation in the event of a delivery dispute.
Raw materials and packaging components arriving from suppliers are weighed at the point of unloading. The recorded weight is compared against the delivery note and sent directly to the ERP. Discrepancies are logged before the delivery vehicle leaves the site.
Forklifts collecting waste from production lines are equipped with weighing systems that allow the operator to select the waste type and destination directly from the cab interface. The system logs the collection event and reports it to the ERP in real time, without requiring a separate data entry step at a workstation.In a corrugated packaging facility, this approach is used to track scrap collection across multiple production lines, with each event reported automatically to the connected ERP system.
Materials moving between production lines, storage areas, or processing stages are weighed at the point of transfer. Each movement generates a weight record tied to the source, the destination, and the handling event, creating a complete internal material trail.
Production facilities operate a mixed fleet of handling equipment across multiple zones. LOGIWEIGH provides weighing systems for each type of vehicle used in the facility, with all systems connecting to ERP and production management platforms through the same integration infrastructure.
SLIDE&WEIGH adds weighing capability to any standard forklift in under 60 seconds. The unit slides over the forks and connects wirelessly to the indicator. When weighing is not needed, the unit is removed and the forklift returns to normal operation with no restrictions.Suited for facilities where weighing is needed at specific stages, where forklifts move between weighing and non-weighing tasks, or where flexible weighing coverage is preferred over fixed installation.
In high-volume production zones where every lift needs a weight record, integrated weighing systems capture weight automatically during each handling event. The operator selects the relevant process parameters from the cab interface, and the system logs and transmits the data without additional steps.
Weighing forks replace standard forklift forks and generate a weight record every time a pallet or load is lifted. The weight is transmitted wirelessly to a cab-mounted indicator and from there to the connected ERP or production management system.
LOGIWEIGH systems transmit weight data in real time over your existing Wi-Fi network using WPA3 encrypted communication. Through our WebService layer, data flows directly into your ERP or production management system with no manual entry. Confirmed integrations include SAP, Oracle, and Priority. Additional integrations are available via API and WebService.
LOGIWEIGH offers three types of weighing systems suited to production environments: removable forklift weighing sleeves (SLIDE&WEIGH) for on-demand use across a mixed handling fleet; integrated weighing systems for warehouse trucks and electric order pickers operating in high-volume production zones; and weighing forks for counterbalance forklifts handling goods receipt and finished goods dispatch. All three connect to ERP and production management systems through the same Wi-Fi and WebService infrastructure.
LOGIWEIGH systems connect via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, RS232, or WebService, depending on the integration requirements. Each weighing event generates a timestamped record that can be matched to a delivery reference, production order, material type, or operator within the ERP. Confirmed integrations include SAP, Oracle, and Priority. The LOGIWEIGH WebService layer handles the data transfer without manual entry or intermediate steps.
Yes. LOGIWEIGH systems support operator-driven reporting from the cab interface, where the forklift operator selects the waste type and collection destination at the point of pickup. The system logs the collection event with the recorded weight and reports it directly to the ERP in real time. This approach is in use in production facilities where waste is collected from multiple lines by a single forklift covering the facility floor.
Yes. SLIDE&WEIGH is designed for standard industrial forklifts and is suited to the conditions found in production and manufacturing environments. The unit slides onto standard forks in under 60 seconds, connects wirelessly to a cab-mounted or handheld indicator, and transmits weight data to the connected ERP over Wi-Fi. When not in use, it is removed in the same time, leaving the forklift fully available for all other tasks.
LOGIWEIGH's parent company, Shkila Ltd., has been manufacturing professional weighing systems since 1983 and holds ISO 9001 and ISO 17025 certifications. Production facility deployments include Strauss, which uses LOGIWEIGH systems for goods receipt with direct ERP integration, and a corrugated packaging manufacturer using the system for production waste tracking across multiple lines.
LOGIWEIGH systems are deployed across production, logistics, and air cargo environments. LOGIWEIGH operates through international distribution partners.
