As a result of the rapid digital change in industry, conveyor systems – once viewed as passive infrastructure – are developing into intelligent data sources. Tru-Trac COO Shaun Blumberg notes that the belt scale is at the center of this shift.
“This technology was previously focused on weighing material flow, but is now evolving into a strategic tool for real-time production visibility, process optimization and predictive analytics,” he says.
Tru-Trac’s AI-powered AccuTrac™ belt scale platform is at the forefront of this evolution. It is not a retrofit of legacy hardware, but rather the principle that mass flow measurement should be dynamic, contextual and adaptive – not static and reactive. Developed in collaboration with Germany-based SHG, the system fundamentally changes the way material flow is measured and managed in industrial environments.
Blumberg explains that traditional belts…
