Choosing the right scale and the right scale company for your application is extremely important. Whether you are looking for a small Ohaus balance or a large Rice Lake 80 foot long Truck Scale, you can save a lot of time and headaches by choosing the right company from the start. Even in today’s tough economy, consumers need to understand the total cost of ownership. For example, downtime often is the most significant cost incurred in industrial settings. In operations like landfills, aggregates, and quarries, many vehicle scales act as the “cash register.” If the scale isn’t

Digital Counting scales look at the weight of the items you place on the weighing platform and divide the weight by the number of pieces you entered, to compute the average piece weight (APW). This is how a digital counting scale displays the number of pieces or parts. The item(s) you are counting must be uniform in weight. No counting scale will ever work if there is a significant variation in the weight of the items. The larger the initial sample (100 pieces versus 5 pieces) the better results the counting scale can provide since it averages out any variations in the piece weights.
So, how do I know which counting scale is best for me? First, find a model that meets your capacity and accuracy requirements (remember the least amount of capacity you can handle is better). In fact, if you’re going to be weighing really light pieces, then possibly a balance with parts counting would be your best choice. Then, look at the features required for your applications (both now and in the future) such as computer/printer interfacing capability, battery operation, ability to connect a larger platform scale (remote scale), etc…

Every now and then we all are tempted to go with a “no name” item as opposed to a proven product that is made by a manufacturer that you know. Whether it is a food product, clothes, television or yes….even a scale, there are “no name” products out there. Most of course are imported from overseas. In fact, in today’s world of cheap imports, they are definitely out there. Some pretty good…some alright and some are downright

I had to write this entry based on the last couple of weeks. We here at CCS always try to stay on top of the newest trends…especially when it comes to scales. So I had a new lower priced import scale shipped in here so we could evaluate it.
Every distributor in all kinds of industries attempt to come up with lower priced
