Level & Weight Measurement Technologies for Accurate, Automated Operations

Level sensors and bin scales have their own unique applications. Utilizing both in one inventory management system provides many benefits, including real-time monitoring and redundancy to verify the accuracy of measurements.

But in which situation or conditions is each method of measurement best suited? Will remote inventory monitoring software be necessary, or is local data integration a better fit?

Find the answers and learn more about these systems in BinMaster's whitepaper, "Level & Weight Measurement Technologies for Accurate, Automated Operations."

Maximize Automated Inventory Management with Professional Setup

Inventory management can be complicated, but it certainly doesn't need to be! In the transition to Industry 5.0, operators are seeking smart systems to give their team real-time visibility into bulk inventory, helping them anticipate future needs and prevent costly downtime due to outages, dry runs, or maintenance.

It's crucial to choose a licensed professional to perform these installation tasks thanks to their beneficial knowledge of permitting and electrical codes. Electricians may also offer expert advice that could make future installations easier, and perhaps even cheaper, for the user.

Read BinMaster's whitepaper to compare two case studies—one company who chose to install sensors one silo at a time vs. another company's full-day install—and learn the importance of professional installation. Plus, learn what aspects make up a SmartSilo system, and the best practices for installing them.
