Improve Safety, Efficiency, and Automation

Paired with SURVIVOR truck scales, Rice Lake’s automated ticketing systems (ATS) and kiosks improve more than just speed and vehicle throughput—an ATS keeps drivers in their cabs, enhancing safety for all. Optional ATS and truck scale accessories for scrap and recycling stations include printers, traffic lights, barrier gates and messaging and remote displays.

Rice Lake’s indicators/controllers are smart, fast and built with the user’s process in mind. When a scrap/recycling enterprise’s business depends on measuring incoming and outgoing material, an accurate weight reading is paramount. Rice Lake offers indicators and controllers that provide not only remarkably accurate weight readouts, but also intuitive programmability and the ability to record data, automate applications, print customer tickets and more.

RailBoss™, Rice Lake’s affordable and versatile railroad scale, is the ideal solution for scrap and recycling yards that can’t afford the space, time and cost of a conventional rail scale, but need to accurately measure the total gross weight of rail cars. Less than one-third the cost of traditional rail scales and with an eight hour installation time, RailBoss fits in the scrap yard and the budget.

Rice Lake’s SURVIVOR RT pit-type and PL modular-type railroad scales are Legal for Trade and combine robust features with incredible accuracy to weigh capacities over 200 tons, standing up to the weight of the heaviest scrap metal and recycling loads.

In scrap and recycling facilities, weight can be the driving factor behind business. From massive onsite scrap metal transfer stations with truck and rail scales to the ticket that prints the load readout, strength, durability and accurate performance are the strongest factors in scrap and recycling equipment, and they’re qualities Rice Lake stands by.
