Industrial Weighing Scales for Tough Working Environments

What are Industrial Weighing Scales?

Weight management is essential in a wide range of industries. Optimising weighing practices, allows industries to boost efficiency and productivity, whilst also reducing costs. Accurate industrial weighing scales are a useful weighing solution in various industries, allowing for accurate measurements. Industrial weighing scales are heavy duty scales, often including a platform or ramp for easy on and offloading.1 Without proper scales, inaccurate measurements are likely and can result in errors and unforeseen costs.2

How Accurate are Industrial Weighing Scales?

Accurate Industrial Weighing Scales

The accuracy of industrial weighing scales is very dependent on the model you are using due to their differing capacities. Precisa’s industrial scales exceptional performance features and built-in automatic self-calibration system gives users full confidence in achieving accurate weighing results – approved and certified. With user-friendly, multi-application terminals designed to meet every weighing, Precisa provides reliable industrial weighing solutions.

Industrial Weighing Scale Advantages

Industrial weighing scales offer numerous advantages that other weighing scales lack:

  • Suitable for almost any industry, weighing a range of objects from food to livestock.
  • Improves workflow as procedures are made quicker, simpler, and more precise
  • Accurate reading ensures conformity to shipping regulations
  • Can easily record and print data
  • As heavy-duty scales, they are able to withstand a higher capacity and tend to have larger weighing pans, with industrial weighing scales offering capacities at 50 kg, 100 kg and up to 500 kg.
  • Again, as heavy-duty scales, they are robust and can withstand factory and warehouse environments3

Industrial Weighing Scale Uses and Applications

industrial weighing scales for food weighing | Industrial weighing scale uses

FOOD: Industrial food weighing scales are perfect for various jobs within the food industry, including production catering – where large quantities of ingredients will be needing weighed. These scales are perfect for getting the job done efficiently. Additionally, industrial food weighing scales are useful in food retail as they can be used to determine a products value by calculating price per kilo – something that is especially important for meats, fruit, and vegetables.

PRODUCTION AND MANUFACTURING: Permits heavy, large items to be weighed for manufacturing. As heavy-duty scales, they can withstand the tough warehouse environment, and are useful for the final product weighing to ensure the correct weight is recorded for transportation.

CHECKWEIGHING/TOLERANCE WEIGHING: A key feature in many scales designed for commercial and industrial uses to verify package contents and determine if the weight of a particular product meets the required specifications.

TRANSPORTATION AND SHIPPING: Accurately weighing goods provides reliable shipping costs, not only saving companies money by avoiding additional fees but also conforms to health and safety requirements. Many modes of transportation must know the weight of items in order to ensure an even distribution on transportation to create a balanced weight to avoid accidents.

AGRICULTURE: Can be used to measure fertiliser, animal feed, and more. It is additionally useful for animal weighing. By monitoring animals’ weight, farmers can identify health issues visible from weight inconsistencies. The low profile of industrial scales makes them a handy option for animals as it is easier for animal to step on and off.

CONSTRUCTION AND MINING: Ensures the health and safety of workers by weighing equipment to avoid going over the load limit when moving materials and equipment. Machinery can then be loaded safely, protecting workers, and avoiding any damages to the equipment.4
