A clear next step for every ingredient
The display shows the step number, target weight, tolerances, remaining quantity and current net weight. Ingredients appear in sequence below, alongside recipe-view and continue controls.
Recipe weighing with Neutron NT
Guide operators through a recipe made up of weighing, timer and confirmation activities. Neutron NT combines target weights, tolerances, instructions and execution records so you can repeat the process and trace who completed each step.
Key features
Weighing, timer or confirmation
Build a recipe from different activity types. Alongside weighing, include a timer or an instruction message that the operator must acknowledge before continuing.
Tolerance rules to suit the process
By default, the weight must be within tolerance before a weighing can be confirmed. Settings can also allow the operator to save an out-of-tolerance weighing when your process permits it.
Automatic confirmation of stable weight
Set a weighing step to confirm automatically when the weight is stable and within tolerance, allowing operators to work through the recipe with fewer manual confirmations.
Edit recipes on Neutron NT
Create and edit recipes directly on the terminal. Define activities, target weights, tolerances and the instructions operators need when preparing the mixture.
How it works
Prepare the recipe
Define the sequence of weighing, timer and confirmation activities on the terminal. Enter target quantities, tolerances and operator instructions.
Follow the activities
Weigh to the displayed targets, follow timers and acknowledge messages. For weighing steps, use manual confirmation or automatic confirmation of stable weight within tolerance.
Complete and review the batch
Ingredient and complete-recipe results are retained. Review the operator, execution times, settings and achieved values for each activity.
Trace every activity and the complete recipe
Each activity stores its start and end time, operator, activity type and associated data and settings, such as target weight and tolerances. Results are saved for individual ingredients and the complete recipe, allowing you to review how the batch was prepared.
Example of use
Build a bread recipe from ingredient weighing, a timer for a preparation stage and a message requiring operator acknowledgement. Use target weight and tolerances for weighing steps; each activity retains its execution times and operator.
Choosing a workstation for your process
List the ingredients, minimum and maximum quantities and tolerances when selecting a solution. Add timed activities and instructions requiring operator acknowledgement. Distributors can use a customer example to demonstrate the complete process, from a recipe on the terminal to the recorded activities.
Local operation. Connected data.
The applications run locally on the Neutron NT terminal, so the weighing process does not depend on a continuous internet connection. Measurements are saved automatically to the SD card and, when connected, to Scale Monitor Cloud. The free web application also lets you edit indicator screens, databases, dynamic fields and print layouts.
Weighing history and the details behind each record
Automatic saving and a history view that suits your work
Measurements are saved automatically to the local SD card and, when connected, to Scale Monitor Cloud. Choose which fields appear in the history table and tailor the view to your application, products and daily information needs. Recipe records also retain ingredient and complete-recipe results.
From a table row to the complete record
Open a saved weighing to see all its parameters. A dosing record includes the formula, target, achieved weight, cycle and elapsed time, so you can review the result alongside the settings used to produce it.
Customise the workstation without programming
Use the free Scale Monitor Cloud web application to adapt Neutron NT to your process quickly and easily. Customise the entire indicator screen, create your own databases and dynamic fields, and design receipts or labels.
An indicator screen designed around your process
Use the graphical editor to customise the layout, appearance, buttons and displayed data without programming. Show operators the information they need for the application they are using.
Your own databases, with Excel import
Create product, customer or other databases for your workstation. Import data from Excel or integrate databases with other systems through the REST API to reduce manual re-entry.
Dynamic fields for your process data
Add your own fields, such as batch, work order or an extra identifier. Set the field name, data type and default value, and choose whether an entry is required before saving.
Fully customisable receipts and labels
Use the free Scale Monitor Cloud editor to design POS receipts or packaging labels. Arrange weighing data, text, a logo, barcodes or QR codes and your own dynamic fields.
Add identification, printing and photo capture
Extend the workstation to suit the job: select a product by barcode, identify an operator with RFID, label the packaging or capture a photograph when a weighing is saved.
SM-LP230-E label printer
Label packaging with weight, piece count, product, batch, operator and machine-readable codes. Fully customise the layout in the free Scale Monitor Cloud application.
View the label printerSM-PET20-T POS printer
Print a weighing ticket or receipt with measurement and process data. Design its contents and layout in the free Scale Monitor Cloud editor.
View the POS printerWireless barcode reader
Scan a 1D or 2D code to select a product, enter a batch or identify an order. The industrial SM-BS1D2D-IGD connects directly to Neutron NT over Bluetooth.
View the barcode readerCS-CAM-SO camera
Capture a photograph when a weighing is saved. Add a visual record of the material, product or packaging to the weight record for later review.
View the cameraCS-A-NFC-RFID2 NFC/RFID reader
Identify an operator with a contactless badge. The embedded NFC/RFID reader simplifies operator identification at the workstation and associates the task with the identified user.
View the NFC/RFID readerFrequently asked questions
Can a recipe include more than weighing?
Yes. A recipe consists of activities that can be weighing, timers or confirmations. A confirmation activity can display a message that the operator must acknowledge before continuing.
Must a weighing be within tolerance before continuing?
By default, yes. Settings can allow out-of-tolerance saving. A step can also confirm automatically when the weight is stable and within tolerance.
What is recorded for each activity?
The start and end time, operator, activity type and associated data and settings are recorded, including target weight and tolerances for weighing activities. Ingredient and complete-recipe results are saved.
