A system and method for monitoring the amount of alcoholic beverages dispensed from bottles in a business establishment that serves alcoholic beverages. The system and method uses a pair of scales located on opposite ends of at least one shelf upon which are positioned bottles of alcoholic beverages. The scales detect changes in weight on the shelf and provide that data, along with calibration data, to a system database and a processor which analyzes all that data to detect a change of weight of the shelf as well as position on that shelf of where that change of weight occurred. A point of sale system of the business establishment is also in communication with the system database/processor so that change of weight data, position data and sales data can be analyzed to display revenue and cost data on a computer including a software application that configures the computer for displaying spreadsheets of all of this data.

An electronic fish scale, associated systems, components thereof, and associated methods. An electronic scale holdable by a hand of a user is configured to determine a weight of a fish. The scale can include an accelerometer that facilitates weighing of the fish. Multiple scales can be networked to provide a tournament fishing scale system.

A system and method for producing a bale having a target weight set by a user. A processor compares stored actual weights to the target weight, and, based on a difference, adjusts the bale-forming process. The processor may calculate a load value for a connecting rod, measure an actual load value for the rod, and, based on a difference, set a new pressure value for the process, and then repeat these steps until the bale is fully formed. The processor may determine a first line relating a calculated load on the connecting rod to a current pressure, determine a second line relating a measured load on the rod to the current pressure, identify a pressure value at the intersection of the first and the second lines, and make this the new pressure value for the process, and then repeat these steps until the bale is fully formed.
