Etheridge Automation

CESI is an Exclusive Sales Representative for Etheridge Automation in the state of Colorado for Plug-In Automation Systems™, Etheridge Software Scales™, Etheridge Software Speed Switches™.


The aggregate industry is driven by efficient production, and the measurement of tonnage produced is one of the most important tools to monitor and improve operations. The most used tool to measure production today, the load cell-based belt scale, is a design that has numerous maintenance costs and inherent inaccuracies. Etheridge Software Scales developed an alternative to load-cell based conveyor scales. They are designed to be installed in the motor starter of the conveyor, with no electrical components outside of the MCC and no moving parts whatsoever.


Benefits to the Software Scale™ design include:


  • Ease of installation – no parts or wiring to install on         the conveyor
  • Automatic calibration
  • No moving parts and no maintenance
  • Easily transferrable from one conveyor to another
  • Accuracy is not compromised over time 

WHAT CUSTOMERS HAVE TO SAY

"They are consistent and durable. Running for 4+ years now. If you’re looking automation with ease, Software Scales has made our operations easier over the years.

Erik A., Iowa

“We like them because, no moving parts. Very little error once calibrated correctly. Initial calibration is more involved. Once dialed in, they are maintenance free compared to traditional belt scale. Important note: must reinitialize the calibration process if you change any components mechanical like motor, belt, etc. or, the angle of the conveyor.”

Dan S., Michigan

“We are very happy with scales in the correct application. Recommendation is to use on a level of conveyor, offers more consistent compared to a stacker and slacking conveyor belts. Think about it, if the differential load and energy build up do not match, you get misleading amps. Easy maintenance and calibration was quick. Right fit for the right application like, standalones.” 

Peter M., Ohio

“The scales are good as long as the belt has some incline. If it is a flat belt or, goes up and down over small hills they're misleading. As a Process Control Engineer, I like the simplicity of the scale working off of the amps of the motor. I researched these scales myself when all other scales at the time were not quite Ethernet compatible. Overall, we have been pleased with them and their ability to have 8 scales on one scale head.”

Mike V., California
