From Manual Guesswork to Real-Time Certainty Across Every Location

How One Manufacturer Turned Disconnected Scales into a Real-Time Data System

Zatkoff successfully modernized its entire fleet of counting scales across multiple offices. By integrating the high-precision Monobloc scales directly into their mainframe via Raspberry Pi, they achieved real-time inventory accuracy and seamless data flow.

Problem:
A regional leader in seal distribution was running on outdated counting equipment that couldn’t keep up with their systems.Their scales lacked the precision required for small, lightweight part counting—and worse, they couldn’t communicate with the company’s mainframe. The rubber seals they are counting have inherent variability and weigh almost nothing, presenting a challenge that can’t be met with standard off-the-shelf counting scales. 

That meant:
- Manual workarounds
- Data delaysRisk of costly counting errors
- At the leadership level, the stakes were high.

The president needed to protect the company’s reputation for accuracy. Meanwhile, their internal engineer was tasked with solving a complex integration challenge—bridging industrial hardware with modern software infrastructure.

Solution:
Cech Scale provided certified installation, calibration, and service support using NIST-traceable standards. Our technicians worked closely with Mettler Toledo’s engineering and service teams to establish standardized procedures, ensuring every installation met exacting precision and regulatory requirements. Custom maintenance programs were also developed to extend equipment life and maintain long-term accuracy.

Result:
Through this partnership, Mettler Toledo achieved consistent performance across all serviced installations and strengthened customer satisfaction in the region. Downtime was reduced, compliance was streamlined, and customers benefited from faster, more reliable local support—reinforcing both brands’ reputation for excellence in precision measurement.

What Was at Risk:
Without change, they were stuck operating in a “data blind spot.”

Inventory accuracy couldn’t be trusted

Systems weren’t connected

Growth was constrained by outdated tools


They weren’t just dealing with old equipment.They were losing confidence in their numbers.And when numbers can’t be trusted, margins are always at risk.

The Goals:
- Standardize counting accuracy across all locations
- Eliminate manual data gapsIntegrate shop-floor equipment with top-floor systems
- Create real-time visibility into inventory

In short: Stop guessing. Start relying on numbers that actually mean something.
