Platform Weighing Scales When it comes to the weighing of large bulky objects such as goods in a warehouse or a logistics hub, a heavy duty weighing platform scale is the best option. The criteria that define such a scale are durability, strength, and a wide area, where the latter is needed to place large sized goods. The platform scales are available in many sizes and are generally made of stainless steel to lend that extra strength. Besides, these may contain wheels as well for easy movement.
The many functions that form part of such scales are counting, checkweighing, percentage weighing, zero, tare, animal weighing, accumulating and others. These scales are used in a number of places such as airports, retail, transport hubs, hospitals to weigh wheelchair bound patients, post offices, and warehouses of manufacturing or commercial establishments where large goods are needed to be weighed.
Platform Scale with Accessories
The scales can be paired with washdown IP66 or IP67 rated indicators, protecting fence, printers, and computers to carry out functions like counting, checkweighing, and data processing. The data obtained from such scales and processed through computers can be used in inventory management.
Factors to Choose a Brand
Choosing the right platform scale can be challenging given the number of brands that are available that too at varying costs. Merely buying a weighing platform scale that costs less is not a prudent move, for the same could end up giving erroneous readings, not complying with regulatory standards or developing faster wear and tear. So, choosing a brand should be guided by a slew of factors such as
1. Experience of the company producing such scales
2. Quality certification of the company and its products through ratings such as ISO, OIML, IP etc
