multiLink reads live weight data from any serial scale or checkweigher and instantly broadcasts it over MQTT, SignalR, Webhooks or back out over Serial โ with zero line reconfiguration when you swap equipment.
Trusted by food producers, packers & processors worldwide
multiLink speaks the language of food manufacturing โ RS-232, RS-485, MQTT, and more โ so your IT team doesn't have to.
Connect scales, checkweighers, fillers and label printers via RS-232 or RS-485. multiLink auto-parses vendor protocols (Mettler-Toledo, Ishida, Bizerba, Avery Weigh-Tronix and more) so you get clean weight data instantly.
Replace a faulty or end-of-life scale with any supported model and multiLink remaps the serial protocol automatically. Downstream systems โ your ERP, MES, SCADA โ never know the hardware changed.
Broadcast every weight reading simultaneously over MQTT (IoT/SCADA), SignalR (live dashboards), Webhooks (ERP / cloud apps) and raw Serial out (legacy PLCs and printers) โ all from a single device connection.
Every reading is timestamped, operator-tagged and stored in an immutable audit log. Meet HACCP, BRC and FDA 21 CFR Part 11 traceability requirements without adding a separate compliance tool.
Three steps โ device in, multiLink in the middle, every output simultaneously.
Plug any serial scale or checkweigher into multiLink via RS-232 or RS-485. Pick your baud rate, choose a vendor template (or define custom strings) and you're live.
Raw serial strings are parsed, validated against weight tolerances and enriched with line ID, operator, product code and timestamp โ then fanned out to every configured output simultaneously.
Each weight event is delivered to all your downstream consumers at once โ no polling, no custom adapters, no middleware to maintain.
Real results from food manufacturers who replaced custom serial glue-code with multiLink.
"We had six different scale models across three packing lines, each with its own serial driver. multiLink replaced all of them in a single afternoon. Our MES now receives live weight events over MQTT without a single line of custom code."
"A checkweigher on our poultry line failed mid-shift. We swapped in a different brand, pointed multiLink at the new COM port, selected the vendor template โ and the line was back up in under ten minutes. Incredible."
"The SignalR output feeds our supervisory dashboard with live weight data at every oven station. Our BRC audit was the easiest we've ever had โ the immutable logs and timestamps answered every traceability question on the spot."
Start free, scale as you grow. No hidden fees, no surprises.
Ideal for a single packing or portioning line with one or two serial devices.
For multi-line facilities that need all four output protocols and full traceability.
Unlimited devices across your entire site, with on-premise deployment option.
Connect your first serial device in under 15 minutes. No drivers, no custom code, no integration consultant required.
