cattle management software

All CattleMax-compatible weigh scale indicators can be connected to a computer that is chute side. As each animal is weighed, CattleMax captures the weight real-time and adds it to the animal record you have selected. Add weights of all types - birth, weaning, yearling, gains, and sales to easily compare how cattle are weighing compared to each other and as a group.

Several weigh scale indicator models have a memory capability that allows for storing of cattle and weights without the need for a computer in the field. After weighing cattle, the indicator can be connected to the computer and the weights can be downloaded into CattleMax. This option works well for producers who are not able to have a computer chute side or at the time cattle are being weighed.

Choosing a weigh scale that is compatible with CattleMax will help your plans for a complete, integrated solution between CattleMax and your weigh scale.  Through the cooperation with weigh scale manufacturers, a compatibility chart is available for you to compare the features of available weigh scales.  The CattleMax Electronic Weigh Scale Comparison Chart (PDF) provides more information about CattleMax-compatible weigh scale manufacturers and weigh scale features.

Cattlesoft does not manufacture or sell weigh scales and therefore remains independent in the weigh scale choices.  We encourage you to contact each manufacturer or manufacturer reseller to assist you with choosing a weigh scale indicator that will work best for your specific operation and needs.
