Ingredient weighing systemsoftware that runs your existing scales.
Search results for 'ingredient weighing system' are dominated by hardware vendors. V5 is the software layer that turns those scales into a validated, recipe-driven, audit-ready weighing system — without rip-and-replace. Bring your Mettler, Sartorius, Rice Lake, A&D or Avery scales; V5 reads them live, gates the dispense against the active formula and bonds every gram to the lot genealogy.
What changes once Ingredient weighing system is live.
Indicative ranges from V5 pilot deployments. Your numbers will land near these once the workflow is operator-led and e-signed at the step.
What changes the day you switch this on.
Manual, paper-driven, and only audited after the fact.
Tribal knowledge in spreadsheets and shared drives.
Errors caught at month-end — too late to fix the batch.
Different teams keep their own version of the truth.
Scale-agnostic — keep what you have
Recipe-driven dispense workflow
Hard-gated tolerance bands
Tare + gross + net captured
What you actually get
Operator-led, e-signed, immutable. Engineered for regulated manufacturers — not retrofitted.
Scale-agnostic — keep what you have
Bluetooth, serial, USB and networked indicators (Mettler IND/ICS, Rice Lake 1280, Sartorius Combics, A&D, Avery E1310) talk to V5 over TCP/IP, Modbus TCP, OPC UA or REST.
Recipe-driven dispense workflow
Operator scans the WO, the kiosk drives them through the BOM in sequence, refusing out-of-spec or expired lots. No 'pick the next one that looks right' moments.
Hard-gated tolerance bands
Per-line target ± tolerance straight from the formula. The dial turns green only inside band; overcharges and undercharges raise a structured deviation, not a sticky note.
Tare + gross + net captured
Auditors can reconstruct the weighing, not just see the net. Tare, gross, net, lot, operator, scale ID and timestamp all seal into the eBMR.
Multi-station and parallel weighing
Run multiple kiosks against the same WO with shared-container groups. V5 prevents double-dispense and consolidates the genealogy.
Validation evidence on day one
IQ / OQ / PQ templates, traceability matrix and GAMP 5 categorisation ship in the validation pack — no add-on fee.
Curious how this lands in your environment?
Where AI actually earns its place.
AI's job here is to make the software layer smarter about the scales you already own — flagging weighing patterns before they become an out-of-band deviation.
- 01
Overcharge/undercharge pattern flagged across a shift
If a particular scale or operator is trending toward the edge of tolerance across multiple weigh-outs, AI surfaces the pattern before the next reading tips into a deviation, rather than treating each weigh as an isolated event.
- 02
Deviation drafted with tare, gross and net context
When a weigh falls outside the BOM-line tolerance, AI drafts the deviation with tare, gross, net, lot, scale ID and operator already populated from the captured record.
- 03
Validation pack gaps flagged before go-live
AI reviews the IQ/OQ/PQ templates against the scale models actually connected and flags any missing test case, so validation is checked complete rather than assumed complete.
AI never adjusts a tolerance band or approves a validation protocol — bands are set from the signed formula, and validation sign-off remains a qualified human's decision.
One operator action — a complete, signed record.
What it leaves behind
- Works with existing Mettler, Sartorius, Rice Lake, A&D, Avery scales
- Bluetooth + serial + USB + Ethernet/IP
- Tare/gross/net sealed to the BMR with operator e-sig
- Hard-gated tolerance + structured deviation on out-of-band
- Free trial, no credit card, onboard in days

The rest of the platform this plugs into.
V5 isn't a bolt-on. Every module shares the same data, the same audit trail, the same operator. Pick where to look next.
MES
