BatchLink Order Entry upgrades your BatchTon batching controller into a flexible and powerful single plant Ready-Mix operation, handing all your scheduling of orders, dispatching, truck management and inventory on a daily basis, as well as giving you reports on all important activities and, if you wish, tying into your accounting software.

The BatchTron controller connects to your existing or new PC computer by a single cable up to 4000 ft. long, or by radio link if desired, allowing batching by remote control. The BatchTron controller can still be used on its own, to make fully automatic batches, at any time.

Standard Windows interface, familiar and easy to learn.
Multiple mix designs limited only by hard drive capacity. Store as many as you want.

STI (Service and Training by Internet)

Redilink's reliability is excellent. This is not where we stop, however. Our customers tell us - loud and clear - when they do have a problem. In order to solve problems quickly and efficiently we have called upon the latest Internet technology. Through your company network and its Internet connection, or even through a phone connection to the Internet, we can access your system and monitor its progress to pinpoint faults. Even if the faults are caused by mechanical problems in the plant (90% of all faults are), we can see the resulting holdup and guide the operator to a successful outcome, anywhere in the world.

Our engineers can monitor or control the PC computer running BatchLink or RediLink software, drilling down through levels of menus to check setup data, correct it and, most important, train personnel to understand the processes. Together with a speaker phone, training sessions for groups can be conducted almost as easily as our trainer being on site. The cost saving and convenience is obvious. Scale-Tron is pioneering this technology to make your experience the best possible.

THE COST

BatchLink is, surprisingly, very inexpensive. Use your own PC computer; BatchLink's installation software runs automatically and sets everything up for you. AND IF YOU DON'T ALREADY HAVE A BATCHTRON batching controller, BATCHLINK IS ONE MORE REASON TO GET ONE. The BatchTron cable plugs right into your computer and you are ready to go.
