Keeping your scrap yard compliant with local legislation seems to be an ever changing process that has no end in sight. Images and documents being uploaded to data bases has become the norm for much of the industry, but some of the required pictures remain very hard to get.

According to TranAct, the Florida-based scrap industry software and technology supplier, the company’s latest JPEGger Plus technology is designed as an innovative solution for enhancing image management needs at the scrap yard. JPEGger by itself is a powerful transaction imaging tool, allowing scrap yards to store images and documents within the ticket and automatically upload at the end of the day. With JPEGger PLUS, TranAct says a whole yard opens up to instantaneous pictures.

Fixed cameras are a great way to snap pics at the scale and cashier station but what about the VIN number? JPEGger Plus with the Scrap Yard Dog feature, allows users to use mobile/hand held devices, smart phones or iPads to take hard-to-get pictures and attach to the corresponding ticket. Event codes allow easy organization of needed pics of particular commodities for uploading.

The power of JPEGger fits in the palm of the users hand, and the Scrap Yard Dog feature included with JPEGger PLUS is beneficial to any scrap yard management system.

Scrap yard operators and owners can now roam the yard and take hard to get pictures with ease, including:

• Container Images
• Unwanted Debris
• License Plates
• Documents
• VIN Numbers
• Customer Pics
