IoT scale iSCALE
iSCALE was developed for Würth Industrie Service GmbH & Co. KG and Kellner & Kunz AG as a fully automated scale solution.
Fully automated
Logistic warehouse management by sensor-controlled scale system for Kanban containers according to VDA standard
Heavy Duty
Designed for heavy duty, industrial + production environments
Solid sensor technology
Weighing sensors determine the content of the boxes
Direct ERP connection
Secure material supply through self-learning replenishment processes
Cost-efficient
Savings through optimization of time-consuming C-parts processes
Flexible
Deployable at customer sites throughout Europe: assembly line, material warehouse or directly at the assembly/workstation
Wireless technology
Control without mains power and via narrowband IoT technology
Service life
Flexible use thanks to long-life battery with up to 5 years runtime

iSCALE - digitalized logistics warehouse management
Via weighing sensors, the intelligent system continuously determines the exact demand for material. It then delivers this information independently to the C-parts supplier’s inventory management system via encrypted interfaces. There, the system automatically triggers the subsequent order and subsequent delivery, including invoicing.
24/7 monitoring
24 hours a day, seven days a week, the iSCALE system determines the material requirements at various locations in the industrial environment.
Self-sufficient system
iSCALE does not require a gateway or local W-LAN. An integrated radio module transmits the digital signal to Würth Industrie Service via NB-IoT.
Industrial environments
The IoT scale is directly connected to the Kanban container and can be moved autonomously. Conceived for all Würth Industrie Service containers manufactured according to VDA standards, designed for use in industrial environments.
Sensor-controlled
Intelligent sensor technology in a robust housing manufactured for industrial environments enables safe and reliable use.
Flexible + Durable
iSCALE operates without a local power supply. The integrated battery enables reliable use for up to five years.
Direct ERP connection
The Kanban containers equipped with an IoT scale transmit the measured values directly to the Würth Industrie Service merchandise management system.
iSCALE - significant advantages
The iSCALE IoT scale system offers all the significant advantages of digitalized warehouse management for C-parts: Time-consuming inventory determinations, reordering and intermediate storage at the customer’s premises are eliminated. Fluctuations and peak requirements are detected at an early stage.
Transparent supply chain
Complete, transparent digitalization of ordering and delivery processes as well as seamless supply to the exact point of need and the individual assembly station.
Automated ordering
After the weight has fallen below a defined value, a message is automatically generated to Würth Industrie Service, an order is triggered and thus a subsequent delivery is initiated.
Efficient use of space
Compared to conventional storage solutions, the iSCALE system requires only half the shelf depth previously occupied: optimal for ideal use of space.
