Abstract
A coating composition system for weighing and formulating coating compositions comprises a physical enclosure enclosing an electronic coating composition networking device. The electronic coating composition networking device comprises a local communication interface configured to receive a physical connector from an electronic scale and a network communication interface configured to communicate with an internet gateway. Additionally, at least one sensor may be integrated within the electronic coating composition networking device. The electronic coating composition networking device also receives, through the local communication interface, a mass variable from the electronic scale and a sensor variable from the at least one sensor. The electronic coating composition networking device then generates a network data structure comprising the sensor variable and the mass variable. The electronic coating composition networking device communicates, through the internet gateway, the network data structure to a remote server.
