The weighing of small animals presents some peculiar problems to those who must perform the task routinely. 1. The most obvious problem of course is that animals don’t stand still waiting to be weighed. They have to be coached onto or into the device and they move around constantly. It is difficult to get an … Continued
Veterinarians use scales to weigh small to medium sized animals including kittens and puppies along with more exotic species like birds and reptiles. We offers veterinary scales for animals and pets ranging from the smallest birds to horses and other livestock. The general types of veterinary scales are: Floor scales – These are low profile scales … Continued
In the agricultural field, there are many uses for small livestock scales. Different types of scales are needed to weight different sizes of livestock. One of the main problems with a livestock scale can arise from how to get the animal on the scale and then how to keep them there. Another problem can arise … Continued
When we think of industrial scales, we often think of large platform scales with very high capacities that weigh large masses of ingredients and products in the industrial process. However, oftentimes, it just is as important to weigh the tiniest components that may weigh much less than a pound, and it is necessary to have … Continued
The most critical part of any industrial scale is the transducer which senses force as an input and provides an electrical signal as an output. These transducers are used in most standard types of digital scales. For smaller capacities, a single transducer in the middle of the scale platform is utilized for bench scales. Parts … Continued
Electronic measuring instruments are designed to provide very accurate results. For industrial applications, there are instruments for measuring temperature, pressure, voltage and current, color, light levels, sound frequency and amplitude, velocity, and a very wide variety of other values. One of the most common applications is for electronic scales to accurately measure weight. There are … Continued
Scales have always been an important piece of equipment to accurately measure the weight of things. Many consumers may have scales in their homes to track their own weight. However, scales also play a very important part in various types of industries. Scales are considered vital in many different types of businesses. There are various … Continued
While technology has seen great advances over the last sixty or so years, it is only recently that these advances have shifted into the industrial realm of scales. Prior to these advances, industries whose operations required weight measurements had to choose between the two standard types of scale technology — strain gage and magnetic force … Continued
We live in a society that is governed by change. “The only constant is change,” a quote by Heraclitus in 500 B.C.E., applies to this day and age as much as it did 1500 years earlier. Good decisions take into account the direction the world is headed. This axiom is clear in the directives of … Continued
Industrial scale technology has been fairly stagnant for a number of years. The predominant technology has been strain gage load cells. When increased accuracy is required, magnetic force restoration, also known as magnetic force motor transducers are used. The disadvantage of force restoration is significantly increase cost. Recently, though, Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) scales have … Continued
