Customized Solution Service (CUSOS)
With CUSOS – Customized Solution Service, KERN develops custom weighing systems and precision measurement solutions for applications that cannot be covered by standard equipment. Based on a targeted requirements analysis, we create solutions that fit your processes exactly – from customized platform and floor scales to fully integrated measurement stations. Whether special dimensions, tailored software, or rugged designs: every solution is engineered to match your existing workflows and on-site conditions. If it doesn’t fit, we make it fit.
Typical application areas include industrial manufacturing and logistics, food processing and agriculture, as well as specialized solutions for animal husbandry, such as horse scales or group animal scales. We also implement solutions for conveyor lines, packing stations, and integrated industrial processes.
KERN IoT-Line – Smart Weighing Solutions for Industrial Digitalization
With the KERN IoT Line, KERN offers IoT-enabled weighing systems that go far beyond conventional measurement functions. The scales operate as intelligent, networked systems with direct data connectivity and bidirectional communication, allowing seamless integration into existing IT, production and quality assurance systems.
Modern interfaces such as RS-232, USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, analog and the standardized KCP protocol enable secure, automated real-time data transfer. Combined with EasyTouch and BalanceConnection, scalable systems are created – from simple data acquisition to automated workflows.
