Weighing solution for the NEC

The National Exhibition Centre has almost doubled the amount of waste it recycles with the help of an Avery Weigh-Tronix weighing solution in its Waste Pre-treatment Centre.

The new centre allows waste to be weighed, separated and treated prior to collection. The Avery Weigh- Tronix system consists of two H520 floor scales, E1310 indicators and custom-developed software.Waste is collected from each hall and transported to the pre-treatment facility in Euro bins where it is weighed and bundled ready to be recycled. Bins are simply dropped off at the centre and loaded straight onto the H520 pit-mounted platform scale. The E1310 indicator shows the weight on a bright display and interfaces with the NEC's software for accurate data analysis.

The system allows the NEC to charge customers according
