At Cogo Scales, we understand the importance of efficiently and safely managing vehicle inputs and outputs at industrial sites.
For this, we developed PORTER, an innovative Access Control System that manages the entry of vehicles into plants, performing crucial checks to ensure operational efficiency and safety.
Functionality of the PORTER Access Control System
Our access control system offers a full range of features:
- Entry Enablement: Checks whether a vehicle is authorized to enter the site, ensuring that only authorized vehicles enter.
- Driver identification: Each driver is identified at the entrance, improving safety and accountability.
- Loading/unloading point indication: The system guides drivers to their specific loading or unloading points, optimizing workflow.
- Customer administrative check: Checks the customer’s administrative status at the weighbridge to approve loading based on quantity and price.
- Supplier administrative check: Checks the administrative status of the supplier to approve the discharge according to the expected quantity.
- Issuance of weighing tag and packing slip: Drivers receive a weighing tag and packing slip for accurate recording.
PORTER is managed by our sophisticated Matrix Access software integrated with the customer’s management system. This integration enables real-time monitoring of the inputs and outputs of vehicles, materials and drivers, providing a complete overview of site activities.
