Optimizing Truck Scale Operations

Designed to integrate seamlessly with truck scale systems, the ZM223 ensures accurate, reliable, and user-friendly performance for logistics, freight, and agricultural applications. With its rugged IP69K stainless steel enclosure and high-visibility display, it delivers dependable results even in demanding environments.


Streamlining Inventory & Production Control

The ZM223 enhances check counting and part counting processes, making it an invaluable tool for inventory management, production lines, and quality assurance. By offering fast and accurate counting with real-time weight verification, businesses can improve throughput while reducing costly errors.


Smarter Batching & Hopper Filling

For industries that rely on batching, blending, and bulk material handling, the ZM223 brings automation and control to hopper filling operations. Its precision weight monitoring helps reduce material waste, ensure consistency, and improve production efficiency.


Real-Time In-Motion Checkweighing

In fast-moving industrial environments, the ZM223 enables in-motion checkweighing on conveyors. This capability allows manufacturers to capture weight data in real time, supporting automated packaging, sorting, and quality control, all without slowing down the production line.


Spot Checks & Quality Control

When quick weight verification is needed on the shop floor, the ZM223 excels at spot check weighing. By ensuring products meet compliance and quality standards, it helps businesses maintain consistency while preventing costly rework or recalls.


Enhancing Logistics & Shipping

In shipping and dispatch operations, the ZM223 integrates with labeling systems, shipping scales, and logistics software to deliver fast and accurate results. This connectivity helps improve throughput, reduce paperwork errors, and keep supply chains moving efficiently.


Flexibility Across Industrial Applications

Beyond core manufacturing, the ZM223 adapts to specialized needs:

  • Analog load cell integration – for capturing precise measurements in industrial monitoring systems.

  • Food production environments – with hygienic, IP69K-rated design ensuring compliance with food safety standards.

  • Peak hold functionality – capturing the highest weight values during force testing, impact weighing, and quality checks.

  • Custom label creation – when paired with the Remote Assist™ mobile app, enabling fast and flexible label customization.

  • Multi-scale switching – allowing users to toggle between multiple scale bases and configurations remotely, ideal for multi-station or flexible production setups.


A Future-Proof, Connected Solution

With built-in support for RS232, USB, Ethernet, Bluetooth, Modbus TCP, cloud integration (HTTPS/MQTT/REST APIs), and a 16GB micro-SD card, the ZM223 is designed to integrate into any modern industrial workflow. Combined with the Avery Weigh-Tronix Remote Assist™ app, it gives supervisors the power to control processes, configure settings, and capture data remotely – delivering unmatched flexibility in industrial weighing.
