Oil Intake & Weighbridge
Connect automatic truck identification, intelligent weighbridge control, oil-transfer measurement, quality monitoring and SAP integration in one traceable operational workflow.
Automatically identify the truck and link it to its transaction history.
Accept the weighbridge value only after three consistent readings within tolerance.
Monitor mass flow, temperature and density throughout the unloading process.
Automatically prepare completed transaction data for the enterprise system.
One connected process. From gate to SAP
The module connects identification, weighing, routing, oil transfer, validation and enterprise integration into one controlled transaction with fewer manual touchpoints.
Automatic truck identification
Two ANPR cameras independently read the licence plate and compare confidence levels. The identified truck is linked to the current transaction and relevant historical records.
Stable weighbridge capture
The system waits for three consistent weight readings within the configured tolerance before accepting the inbound weight, reducing unstable values and manual transcription.
Automatic workflow selection
Current transaction information and truck history can be used to direct the vehicle into the correct cargo or oil-intake workflow.
Continuous transfer measurement
During unloading, oil quantity, mass flow, temperature and density are recorded continuously, creating a measured picture of the complete transfer rather than only a before-and-after weight.
Close and validate the physical transaction
The empty truck returns to the weighbridge for a stable tare measurement. Gross weight, tare weight and measured oil can then be compared to identify discrepancies.
Automatic SAP handover
Completed transaction data — including truck identification, weights, measured oil quantity and timestamps — is automatically prepared for SAP without manual re-entry.
One transaction. Multiple independent measurements
Each oil transfer becomes a complete operational record combining truck identity, gross and tare weight, measured oil quantity, timing, flow, temperature and density — with discrepancies calculated automatically.
Measure more than
weight
Continuous process data makes it possible to evaluate both unloading performance and the physical characteristics of every delivery.
Measured versus expected oil
Compare measured oil quantity with the expected or invoiced amount and expose the discrepancy in kilograms directly in the transfer record.
Transfer profile
Review startup, steady-state flow and shutdown behaviour to identify interruptions, unusual rate changes or process instability.
Continuous quality indicators
Record temperature and density throughout unloading instead of relying only on a single point measurement.
Transfer and truck intelligence
Compare previous deliveries, tare-weight consistency and visit patterns to identify recurring deviations and support arrival planning.
A full-load quality picture
Density and temperature are recorded while the complete tanker load passes through the intake line. This gives operators a broader view of product consistency than a single sample can provide.
Additional measurements such as viscosity or water content can be integrated where the process and instrumentation require them.
Track product characteristics throughout the full unloading period.
Visualise density variation across the complete transfer.
Highlight unusual behaviour that may not be visible in a single sample.
HMI control and platform insight working together
The local HMI remains focused on safe operation of the physical process, while the platform provides transaction history, analytics, reporting and enterprise-level visibility.
Operate the process
Visualise tanks, buffer vessel and flow status, start or stop the process, handle alarms and use manual mode where required.
Understand the operation
Analyse completed transfers, compare measurements, investigate trends, report performance and connect the intake process to wider plant data.
The intake does not end at the weighbridge
Once stored in the Manomay Industrial Intelligence Platform, the delivery becomes part of the plant's wider operational data. The same information can support production reporting, supplier analysis, alarms, maintenance, truck-history analytics and enterprise-level dashboards.
Better traceability. Less manual reconciliation
Automated chain of custody
Identification, weighing, transfer measurement and SAP handover remain linked to the same truck transaction.
Independent quantity validation
Compare gross/tare-derived weight with measured oil flow instead of depending on one measurement source.
Continuous process visibility
Monitor flow, temperature, density and discrepancies while the delivery is still in progress.
Less manual data handling
Truck data, weights, measurements and timestamps move through the workflow automatically and are prepared for SAP.
Connect weighing, intake, quality and ERP.
We can adapt the module to your plant, weighbridge infrastructure, oil-transfer equipment and SAP or ERP environment as one engineered solution.
