MQTT

An efficient transfer protocol with consistent standards

  • Overview

    Doran’s MQTT support for the 2200CW SS Series publishes weight data the moment it is captured, sending it to your systems without polling and custom middleware. Because MQTT was designed for constrained networks, it moves data efficiently over connections that would strain heavier protocols — remote facilities, wireless links, and shared plant networks included. Your scale becomes a data source that any authorized system can subscribe to, on the floor or in the cloud.

     

    KEY PERFORMANCE FEATURES INCLUDE


    Publish Once, Deliver Everywhere

    The scale publishes each weighment to a broker, and every subscribed system receives it at the same moment. Add a dashboard, a historian, or a cloud analytics platform without touching the scale configuration.

    Efficient on Any Network

    MQTT’s compact message format keeps bandwidth demands low, making it well suited to wireless connections, cellular links, and networks shared with other plant traffic.

    Real-Time Data

    Weight readings reach your systems as they happen rather than on a polling interval, so operators and supervisors are working from current production data.

    Controlled Access

    The broker sits between your scales and the systems that consume their data, giving you a single place to manage which applications are permitted to publish and subscribe.

    Built for Cloud and IoT Platforms

    MQTT is the native protocol for most major IoT services and modern SCADA platforms, so weight data flows into your existing analytics stack without a translation layer or custom driver development.

    Wired or Wireless

    Run MQTT over your existing Ethernet infrastructure or over WiFi where cabling is impractical. The protocol behaves the same either way.

    Scales With Your Operation

    Adding checkweighers means adding publishers, not reconfiguring receivers. A line with one scale and a line with twenty use the same architecture.
