Integrated barcode recognition
June 25th 2008

Specialist in electronic weighing technology for use on off-highway vehicles, RDS Technology has increased its focus on data capture and handling with the recent launch of the new Loadmaster i generation of on-board weighing instruments with integral SD card reader.

The Loadmaster has been specially designed to aid data capture in a variety of ways. It has an internal database of 1000 stores, of which 500 can be programmed as ‘Customers’. The details of each can be uploaded to the instrument via an SD card or programmed in directly.

RDS also now offers an on-board weighing system with integrated barcode recognition. Particularly useful in warehouses and yard environments, this innovation speeds up the entry of vehicle, product or other category entered by simply scanning a barcode. The instrument registers this information and weighing proceeds in the normal manner, automatically allocating the weight of the load to the category combination.
