Rice Lake’s VIRTUlink Cloud Monitoring System transforms analog platform scales into IoT-connected devices by leveraging the iQUBE® digital junction box and secure cloud infrastructure. This system enables real-time visibility into scale status, diagnostics, and data analytics, unlocking insights that were previously out of reach.
With enhanced onboard diagnostics, VIRTUlink identifies cell drift, signal noise, and potential faults before they impact operations. Its load cell emulation feature ensures operations remain uninterrupted by compensating for faulty cells until service is scheduled.
Through the cloud-hosted dashboard, users can review scale data, monitor equipment status, configure alerts, and access technician notes. Whether you operate a single scale or a network of devices, VIRTUlink enables scalable monitoring and performance optimization, bringing digital clarity to analog operations.
This system is ideal for industrial settings that require remote diagnostics, proactive maintenance, and detailed performance logs to ensure weighing system accuracy, uptime, and compliance.
