The RoboCrib with ScaleMate option is a unique approach of combining the popular high security RoboCrib system with a counting scale (load cell). This gives the RoboCrib the ability to dispense multiples of items from a single bin in a high security format.
ScaleMate for RoboCrib provides for a significant increase in security over drawer based dispensing systems. In the typical drawer based system the user is asked to tell the system how many of a specific item they are taking. This results inaccurate bin counts, which ultimately cause overages and/or stock outs. With a ScaleMate RoboCrib the system does not rely on the user to give a count of what was taken. Further, if the user attempts to put something in the bin in an effort to change the issue quantity, the system checks to make sure the new weight is divisible by the per piece weight. If not, it will report bin contamination to the system administrator.
