Ship container scales are specialized weighing systems designed to provide accurate and reliable weight measurements for cargo containers, ensuring compliance with SOLAS regulations, optimizing load distribution, enhancing transport efficiency, and improving safety in maritime and logistics operations.

COMPASS container scale

VGM + VERMAS EDIFACT: container operated with spreader / RMG or RTG port crane / reach stacker

TheĀ FLINTAB COMPASSĀ system allows you to streamline the operation of containers (and in particular individual packages) to determine the GROSS value of their mass and manage the weighing result associated with the other mandatory data that are written on the container. This process is completely automatic, with the operator being guided step by step during the operation of the containers. Weighing data are subject to the current Directive 2014/32 / EU. The COMPASS system contains the following modules:

  • Container scale - for weighing containers 20 ', 40', 45 'takes the GROSS value of the mass of the container in kg, date and time of weighing, eccentricity container in percent and center of gravity in coordinates
  • ACCR system - for reading container codes
  • Automatic terminal - for data acquisition
  • System interface - for bidirectional interfacing with the operator / service technician
  • FLINTAB server - for managing and storing FLINTAB data, system interfacing and sending VERMAS messages

VGM + VERMAS EDIFACT: truck container

The truck enters the Truck Scales and stops at the red light. Infrared barriers ensure proper scales. The ALPR system reads the registration numbers of the truck and the ACCR system reads the container code, data which – together with the weight – are sent to a PC station.

The green color of the traffic light validates the transaction and the driver can leave the road balance. All VERMAS EDIFACT messages and VGM certificates are the same as for the above automated system.
The COMPASS weighing system is the recommended solution for weighing containers. COMPASS is under construction HEAVY DUTY and high precision.
