The JWS Division of Command Alkon has developed four great new products that will save you time, money, and make your jobs easier. If you’re interested in one of these products, please contact your sales representative.

The Apex Kiosk is used in conjunction with the Apex Auto ID module to offer an integrated solution for the automation and optimization of bulk materials facilities. The Kiosk provides unattended vehicle identification, check-in/check-out, tare in/ticket out, loader notification and auto load. The integrated touch screen also allows driver input/verification of load information, purchase order number, trailer number, inbound material, and other required information. The Kiosk can also communicate with a variety of input/output devices including traffic lights, site lights, traffic gates, and vehicle position photo sensors.

Our custom built Remote Printer Enclosure is designed to house a thermal ticket printer with cutter or a laser printer. It has a sliding and pivoting printer shelf for easier access to the printer and an optional swing arm stand. The moveable stand ensures that the entire enclosure glides out of the way if bumped. When installed at cab height, the driver may pick up his scale ticket after weighing without leaving the vehicle or obstructing other vehicles. This enclosure is constructed of industrial steel and comes standard with a heater and a cooling fan system. Optimal placement is one truck length from the scale. The stand is designed to swing 90 degrees if bumped to the incoming/outbound truck.

The Apex Vehicle & Truck Tracking Solution, COMMANDtrack, uses existing GPS tracking technology to let you know where your trucks are at all times and to help you achieve greater efficiencies in managing your truck fleet. COMMANDtrack’s flexible, user-friendly dashboards display real-time status information on each vehicle, from loading at the plant to delivering to the job and returning to the plant. The program seamlessly integrates with Apex 4 Order/Vehicle Dispatch module for scheduling product deliveries. The graphical scheduling interface provides ease and accuracy in reassigning your fleet of trucks.

Benefits of Truck Tracking include an improvement in ontime deliveries, maximization of hauling capacity, an increase in revenue from own and brokered vehicles, and faster and more accurate ticketing and reporting capabilities.

Outdoor Remote Displays can be used in conjunction with our Auto ID module to display messages to drivers and use remote displays for tare-in/ticket to assist drivers in knowing where to go and/or what product they will be loading. The display communicates directly with the Apex Kiosk/Auto ID module to display information. Our displays are available in normal exterior or high bright optional output lighting. The units are configurable to display in either 2-line mode (2”, 20 characters) or 1-line mode (4”, 10 characters).
