Check-Weigher

By law, every product you ship needs to reflect what is printed on your product label. Staying compliant means each package weighs equal to or greater than the product’s label weight. However, checking product weight for legal compliance can slow down production. Every second spent weighing, could be time spent packing and shipping. While there’s no magic solution currently to by-pass checkweighing, you can get your products out the door faster through the help of checkweighers.

Balance Scale

Designed to measure small increments in product in the sub-milligram range, these balance scales use a tuning fork to achieve high accuracy with 3 decimal places 410 g x 0.001g.

Mechanical Scale

Mechanical scales are perfect for explosive or wet environments where electrical usage is not a safe option.

Platform Scale

When it’s too heavy to lift onto a bench, Platform scale provide an ideal heavy duty platform solution for warehouses, and large stores where you need to deliver fast accurate weighing of bulk goods.

Factors To Consider Before Purchasing An Industrial Weighing Scale:

  • Application– Determine how and where you are going to use the equipment.

  • Capacity– Know the quantities you will be weighing frequently.

  • Materials– Choose equipment made from a variety of materials in the market.

  • Surroundings– Know the type of surroundings and environment you will be using the scales in. 

  • Regulations– Make sure that your scales and procedures are in compliance with the industry regulations.

  • Cost– Choose the best scale based on your business needs and budget.

  • Maintenance and Calibration – Calibration of measuring devices has three purposes: It checks the accuracy of the instrument, determines the traceability of the measurement and it repairs the device if it is out of calibration. This usually involves a report provided by the calibration expert, showing the error in measurements of the measuring device before and after the calibration.

Regular calibration of your measuring device plays a huge role in the smooth functioning of your operations, as well as the profitability of your business. It is easy to calculate the annual costs of the calibration process, including equipment and labor and conclude that calibration requires money to be spent. It is, however, difficult to calculate the costs of not calibrating enough, or making bad calibrations. If you want to avoid these unwanted and unnecessary costs, it naturally takes resources and investments to be made. 

It is extremely important to calibrate equipment to help assure accurate measurements and production of quality products with minimal errors and recalls. Thanks to calibration, any error or uncertainty of the measuring device is resolved by ensuring the accuracy of the test equipment.
