Anti-Fraud Key Features
UniWin®’s anti-fraud capabilities are designed to protect your operations against common fraud risks associated with weighbridge and scale systems. From advanced software functionality to seamless integration with hardware tools, UniWin® offers a comprehensive approach to safeguarding accuracy, compliance, and operational integrity. Below, we highlight the system’s key features in detail.
Information Protection (Standard Feature)
UniWin® ensures that access to its system is tightly controlled through a multi-tiered user management system. Administrators can assign specific roles to users, each with customizable permissions that limit access to critical functions such as manual weighing or configuration changes. This minimizes the risk of unauthorized actions or internal fraud.
Additionally, UniWin® maintains detailed logs of all user activities. These logs act as a tamper-proof record, enabling easy identification of unauthorized access attempts or unusual activity. The logging system ensures compliance with corporate security policies and provides a valuable resource for audits and investigations.
Manual Weighing
(Standard Feature)
Manual weighings are often necessary in specific situations, but they can also be exploited if not properly controlled. UniWin® protects this function with an additional layer of security, requiring user authentication before a manual weighing can be performed. Each manual weighing is logged with the username and timestamp, creating an unalterable record.
On weigh tickets, manual weighings are clearly marked, ensuring full transparency and compliance with Weights and Measures Legislation. Reports specifically dedicated to manual weighings can be generated, making it easy for auditors or management to review these transactions and identify anomalies.
Motion Detection
(Standard Feature)
A moving vehicle on the weighbridge can lead to inaccurate measurements or intentional fraud. To counter this, UniWin® enforces motion detection both at the weighbridge indicator level and through its own software. The system blocks weighings while motion is detected, ensuring that measurements are only taken when the vehicle is stable.
This dual-layer motion detection not only ensures accuracy but also complies with industry regulations. By preventing weigh tickets from being generated during motion, UniWin® eliminates a common avenue for fraudulent manipulation of weighbridge data.
Empty Weight Verification
(Standard Feature)
UniWin® includes a “zero-check” feature that ensures no vehicle is weighed twice without first clearing the weighbridge. This prevents operators from manipulating results by duplicating weighings without resetting the scale. The system requires a zero reading below a customizable threshold (e.g., 200 kg) before a new weighing is allowed.
This feature is particularly useful in operations with high vehicle turnover, where errors or deliberate fraud could otherwise go unnoticed. For scenarios where vehicles are loaded or unloaded directly on the weighbridge, this function can be selectively disabled to accommodate operational requirements.
Empty Weighbridge Enforcement
(Standard Feature)
To prevent fraudulent weighings of non-existent loads, UniWin® enforces an “empty weighbridge” rule. If the weight on the platform is below a defined threshold (e.g., 200 kg), the system blocks the weighing process and prevents ticket generation.
This safeguard ensures that weighings are only performed when an actual load is present on the platform, eliminating the possibility of false weight readings. By maintaining this strict control, UniWin® helps protect the integrity of your weighing operations.
Automatic Zeroing
(Standard Feature)
After each transaction, UniWin® automatically resets the weighbridge to zero. This ensures that residual weights from previous weighings do not interfere with subsequent measurements. The system sends a zero command directly to the weighbridge indicator, provided the indicator supports external commands.
This feature not only enhances accuracy but also simplifies operations by automating a critical step in the weighing process. Automatic zeroing ensures that every transaction starts with a clean slate, leaving no room for error or manipulation.
Movement Tracking
(Standard Feature)
UniWin® logs every movement on the weighbridge, regardless of whether a weighing is performed. This includes recording the date, time, maximum weight, and stable weight for each instance the platform registers movement above a specified threshold.
The system generates daily log files that are securely stored and accessible only to authorized personnel. This invisible yet powerful tool provides a detailed record of weighbridge activity, making it easier to identify misuse, such as unauthorized loading or unloading on the platform.
Weighbridge Tracking
(Standard Feature)
This module detects and records all weighbridge movements, ensuring that any misuse is immediately logged. The system measures and logs each instance where the platform weight exceeds a specified threshold, recording the highest stable weight and the weight used in a transaction.
The module also validates the sequence of events, such as beam activation and weight registration, to ensure consistency. Unauthorized or out-of-sequence movements are flagged, providing a powerful tool for detecting and preventing fraudulent activity.
Vehicle Positioning
(Requires Hardware)
UniWin® ensures that vehicles are correctly positioned on the weighbridge during weighings. Using infrared sensors, photocells, or other position detection tools, the system verifies proper alignment of the vehicle’s tires on the platform. If the vehicle is misaligned, the system halts the weighing process and alerts the operator.
This feature prevents errors caused by partial weighings or fraudulent attempts to manipulate results by improperly positioning the vehicle. When combined with physical barriers or guide rails, it further enhances accuracy and operational efficiency.
Camera Integration
(Requires Hardware)
UniWin® integrates seamlessly with IP cameras to provide a visual record of each weighing transaction. The system captures snapshots during the weighing process, storing these images alongside transaction data in a secure folder. Each image is uniquely linked to its respective weighing ticket for easy retrieval.
Depending on the camera setup, these images can serve various purposes, such as verifying the vehicle’s load, confirming its identity, or ensuring the correct number of passengers. This visual evidence adds an additional layer of security and transparency to your operations.
