SmartScale uses RFID technology to automatically capture individual animal weights, accurately tracking weight and weight change over time. This data forms the foundation of performance and efficiency analysis, helping identify which animals gain weight most efficiently.
SmartScale records individual animal weights automatically — no manual handling, no extra chute work. Simply set up the scales, let your animals do what they do, and start receiving accurate daily weight data
SmartScale delivers daily individual weights so you can track growth rates, identify underperformers, and make confident management decisions around feeding, sorting, and marketing — all backed by real data.
Unexpected weight loss is often the first sign something is wrong. SmartScale flags unusual changes in an animal's weight trend, helping you catch health issues, nutritional gaps, or stress events early, before they impact your bottom line.
Individual-level weight tracking gives you a complete performance picture across your operation, so you can reward your best genetics, cull with confidence, and manage each animal with precision.
Body weight is a key indicator of animal health and performance, yet it is rarely measured at the individual level in group settings more than once or twice. Traditional weighing methods are labor-intensive and infrequent, leaving producers and researchers without the consistent data needed to detect variation between animals or make timely management and nutrition decisions.
SmartScale delivers daily, automated, individual-level weight monitoring for group-housed cattle. Using RFID identification, the system logs every weigh-in and records accurate weights for each animal, giving producers and researchers reliable daily data to support performance tracking, feed efficiency analysis, and health monitoring.
SmartScale records every weigh-in interaction and converts these measurements into structured datasets delivered to users. Final data gives simple, clear insights into the following individual animal statistics:
When paired with SmartFeed, SmartScale connects weight gain with feed intake data to identify your most feed-efficient animals and drive more profitable management decisions.
Track how individual animals respond to ration changes over time and use real weight data to refine your feeding program with confidence.
Identify unexpected weight loss or stalled gain that may indicate illness, stress, or nutritional issues, enabling earlier intervention and improved animal outcomes.
Track individual daily weights to understand growth trends and ensure animals are performing to expectations across your herd.

SmartScale provides individual real-time animal weight and performance at your finger tips.
All raw and processed data is accessible in a secure archive with a simple online interface. Data is transmitted wirelessly with WiFi or cellular network.
SmartScale can be operated in “noisy” RFID environments without complications and work with any low-frequency RFID tag.
Designed to fit your existing water source. Can be used in virtually any production setting.
For remote applications, a solar power kit can be added
to each unit. The kit includes one solar panel, frame,
batteries, and a battery control box.
All of our units read HDX - Half Duplex and FDX
