Automated Loadout Control Systems
Smarter Loadout Automation for Bulk Material Operations
The ILS Loadout Control Interface allows ScaleQ to integrate directly with existing silo loadout systems, helping operations automate truck loading while improving accuracy, efficiency, and operational consistency.
Designed and built in-house by Interface Logic Systems, the Loadout Control Interface works with ScaleQ to automate material loading with minimal operator involvement, reducing manual processes and helping operations move trucks through the loading process more efficiently.
Integrate with Existing Loadout Equipment
The Loadout Control Interface is designed to integrate with existing silo loadout gates and loading systems.
Once integrated, ScaleQ can automatically control the loading process based on the transaction and target load information, reducing the need for continuous operator interaction.
This allows operations to automate loading workflows while maintaining control and visibility throughout the process.
Automated Loading with Improved Accuracy
ScaleQ uses transaction information and weight data to control the loading process and achieve the desired target weight.
The system can learn the performance characteristics of your loadout equipment over time, allowing material to be loaded accurately without requiring operators to continually "jog" material into the truck at the end of a transaction.
The result is a more efficient loading process that reduces operator workload while improving consistency and throughput.
Manual Loadout Mode
While automation can significantly improve efficiency, there are situations where manual control is preferred.
The Loadout Control Interface includes a manual loadout mode that allows personnel to operate silo gates directly when needed, making it easier to perform silo cleanout procedures or other maintenance-related activities without relying on automated control.
Built with Safety in Mind
Safety is an important part of every loadout operation.
The Loadout Control Interface includes an emergency stop button designed to immediately stop all output signals being sent from the controller to the loadout gates.
This provides operators with a simple method to halt loading activity when necessary and supports safer operation in demanding industrial environments.
Designed and Built by ILS
Unlike many solutions that rely entirely on third-party hardware, the ILS Loadout Control Interface is designed, built, wired, and tested in-house by Interface Logic Systems.
This approach allows ILS to deliver solutions that are designed specifically for scale, loadout, and material handling applications while providing greater flexibility for customer requirements and future enhancements.
