Automated Combination Weighing
Industrial scales are one of the most frequently used devices in industry. Almost every shipping and receiving venture in the world will have a use for an industrial scale. They are used for weighing food, chemicals, electronics, or auto parts. Knowing the exact weight of a shipment is necessary for industry and the weight distribution of ships or trucks.

However, not all businesses or corporations will have the same use for the same scales. There are a lot of different scales needed for each industry. For instance, lab scales are used to measure the weight of different chemicals. Depending on the accuracy needed; the scale could be something as simple as a bench scale or a very expensive specialized scale with shields to prevent air movement inside the chamber. If the lab needs to weight larger batches of substances, they would need a specialized instrument. Most bench scales will have a cap at 200lbs, while industrialized chemicals and compounds can greatly surpass this weight.
Some scales will only be able to send output signals to other specialized equipment within the same field. These signals can be used for batching or for turning off pumps, valves, feeders or other electrical devices. Most scales use standard USB and Ethernet output connections to send data to other devices. USB flash drives or larger external hard drives can also be used to store the data for future use.
Another common scale used in industry is the platform scale. This scale has a platform that the object being weighed must sit on. After a few seconds, the scale will give the object’s weight. These are similar to your common bathroom scale, but with much more accuracy. There are a lot of different platform scales available for each industry. When the load becomes heavy, it might be important to use a platform scale with a lower profile. This gives the load more maneuverability. Scales are also used in the agricultural industry to weigh livestock. Usually a floor scale is used this application. Floor scales are primarily used when the load exceeds a ton. Larger floor scales can be used for loads that are 10 tons or more.
