Mission Statement n n Our mission: Scale-Tron Inc. specializes in automation with focus on weighing and batching, plus several specialized sensors for aspects of concrete production and related industries. Our goal is to advance the art of automation and concrete production through innovative products and excellence in service. We believe in honesty, integrity and in solving technical problems with enthusiasm. Scale-Tron has over 40 years continuous experience in design and manufacturing of control systems for food and concrete with equipment in use across North America, the Middle East and the Far East. Through several associated companies, we have the capability for the design of complete plants and supply of equipment in all areas of concrete production. 3/16/2018 2

’ 70 s Our beginnings n First control systems produced in 1971 n First computer control system in 1982 n PC computer based system 1989 n ’ 80 s Replaced by current PLC and touch screen system 1996 ’ 90 s Current 3/16/2018 3

Scale-Tron’s current products n n Batch. Tron II PLC and touch screen batch controllers automate concrete production and other applications. Highly reliable and easily customized Batch. Link Order Entry / Dispatching software and Batch. Link Reporting software take care of the paperwork and streamline the office work 3/16/2018 4

Batch. Tron III handles plants with 2 and 3 mixers n n n Complex precast plants have many conveyors and holding hoppers Larger screen and double screens Ability to handle more ingredients 3/16/2018 5

Demand stations n Our equipment is designed from the ground up to do things the way your production crew wants them. Typical precast Demand Station allows batches to be called and delivered on demand, allowing the batch controls to run unattended – a big saving, and the operator can be more effective in other critical tasks. We improve your efficiency Some applications need a small touch screen in the demand station for entry of moisture values etc. 3/16/2018 6

Moisture measurement n n Radar. Tron microwave sensor measures moisture in sand granular materials. Accurate and very reliable; your mix designs will always be correct Mix. Tron mixer moisture controller corrects moisture and slump variations in the mixer. Microwave sensor with long life Silicon Nitride cap. Controller is PLC / touch screen. Also available as built-in option of Batch. Tron at low extra cost 3/16/2018 7

Silo weighing n n Silo. Weigh uses Silex sensor that bolts onto the silo leg to weigh silo contents, eliminating the risk of empty or overfull silos Silo. Weigh. Net is a complete Internet based silo inventory database system, giving both local and remote silo level displays, alarms and trend data as well as automating the ordering and truck dispatch process 3/16/2018 8

Temp. Tron temperature sensor n n Ruggedized sensor for measuring aggregates in bins and concrete in mixer Sensor has heat conductive tip, giving fast response Mixer mount allows sensor to mount behind liner plate for long life or through liner for fastest response Related products include Infrared sensor for mixers and temperature control of aggregates 3/16/2018 9

Concrete cooling n n n With partner company Con. Cool, we offer: Wet belt cooling of aggregates Fluid bed sand cooling Liquid nitrogen additional cooling Controls for complete aggregate refill system, with temperature measurement and feedback 3/16/2018 10

High Pressure Washout n n For cleaning concrete mixers, European spray heads are matched to a North American pump to give awesome cleaning power Cleans all mixer types except rotary drum models Gives an extra 30 minutes of production every day Improves safety – no need to enter mixer 3/16/2018 11

Fiber bag dispenser n n n Dispenses all sizes of bag totally reliably Connects to control system as an admix, giving 1 bag per cu. m. of concrete Printed record as an admix Last bag detector prevents batches until refilled Can also dispense microingredients such as preweighed granular colors 3/16/2018 12

OEM scales and load cells n n n Scales for use in self-checkout Platform scales, all sizes Small conveyor scales Special load cell assemblies with overload protection Related high-accuracy electronics 3/16/2018 13

Custom systems, training n n Custom weighing and automation systems are installed in many countries. Illustrated is powder batching system at Rehau, Montreal Service & Training by Internet allows our engineers to monitor the whole system to find and fix problems, download new software and train plant personnel through Skype and Go.
