摘要
The repetitive task of capturing data from consignment notes presented at Sezela weighbridge often resulted in errors. Errors were caused by incorrect data on consignment notes, carelessness, stress at peak delivery periods and fatigue. The problems have been eliminated with the development and introduction of an automated data capture and weighing system at the Sezela weighbridge. Apart from eliminating incorrect data capture, the system improved millyard productivity and effected significant cost savings. The development and operation of the system and the problems encountered are discussed in this paper.
