Weighbridge Automation & Unmanned Weighbridge Solutions
Weighbridge automation brings intelligence, accuracy, and efficiency to material weighing by eliminating manual errors and operator dependency. With an unmanned weighbridge, trucks can be identified automatically, weighed precisely, and recorded in real time—24/7, without human intervention.
Equipped with RFID, IoT controllers, cameras, and ERP integration, our solution ensures tamper-proof data, faster turnaround, and complete auditability. From raw material receipts to dispatches, every transaction is seamlessly captured into ERP systems like SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, and PACE360.
Designed for industries like mining, cement, agriculture, logistics, and construction, our unmanned weighbridge system reduces costs, prevents pilferage, and transforms weighing operations into a transparent, fraud-free process.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is weighbridge automation?
Weighbridge automation uses electronic hardware and software — RFID readers, ANPR and CCTV cameras, positioning sensors, boom barriers, and robotic process automation — to weigh heavy vehicles without manual intervention. It ensures the material delivered matches what’s documented, maintains load compliance, and captures every transaction for reporting, audits, and dispute resolution.
Q2:How does the system verify driver identity on an unmanned weighbridge?
Softweb’s SmartWeigh uses a driver-facing smart kiosk with facial recognition to validate and authenticate each driver before weighment. This ties every transaction to a verified individual, strengthening compliance documentation and closing a common gap in unmanned operations — impersonation or unauthorized drivers at the gate.
Q3: Can SmartWeigh generate challans and e-way bills without manual paperwork?
Yes. RPA bots within SmartWeigh automatically generate and print challans or e-way bills the moment a vehicle completes weighment — no operator has to key in data or trigger the printout. This removes a major bottleneck in semi-automated setups and keeps documentation error-free and instant.
Q4: How are vehicles guided into the correct position on the weighbridge?
SmartWeigh combines IoT-enabled positioning sensors with automated PA voice guidance to direct drivers into the correct spot on the platform in real time. This reduces mispositioned readings, re-weighments, and the need for a staff member to physically direct traffic at the bridge.
Q5: What's the difference between a semi-automated and a fully unmanned weighbridge?
A semi-automated weighbridge still needs staff for select steps — ticket printing, manual vehicle checks, or exception handling. A fully unmanned SmartWeigh setup runs end-to-end: RFID identification, facial recognition-based driver validation, sensor-guided positioning with voice prompts, automated weight capture, RPA-generated challans/e-way bills, and ERP sync — all without a human in the loop.
