Digital floor scales are much more reliable and precise than analog models, so the validity of recorded weights need not be brought into question as long as the scales are regularly calibrated. Digital scales are far more accurate, and offer features that analog scales do not offer. For example, digital scales nearly universally come equipped with an automatic tare feature. This feature alone can preserve the accuracy of the scale measurements being taken, and remove many opportunities for user error in the recording process.
Simply forgetting to manually enter a on a scale that does not have an automatic tare feature can compromise the accuracy of the reading of the scale. When looking for the perfect scale for your business, ensure that you are searching for the scale that will best fit the requirements of your weighing procedures. This should be the first and foremost priority. Consider the weight of the items that you plan on having to weigh on a frequent basis, and account for higher and lower weights within reason.
There is no need to purchase a scale designed to weigh items up to 2 ton if the heaviest object that you ever expect to weigh is going to be 5 kg. However, you certainly want to ensure that the scale you purchase will always meet your needs, so it is important to realistically consider what type of articles that you intend having to weigh. Replacing a scale can be a costly and unnecessary venture, so always choose a maximum capacity for weight that is somewhat higher than your ordinary requirements.
Consider the features that you find to be important in a perfect scale. For example, the size of the digits on the scale indicator is important to many people. The industry standard for most digital floor scales is to have digits that are one inch tall. However, displays with larger digits are also available. Rugged construction or water-resistant scales may be valuable to you, so a floor scale utilizing stainless steel load sensors would be desirable.
If you work with chemicals, you may need to use explosion proof scales, or intrinsically safe scales. Additionally, consider the type of printer attached to the scale. Ensure that it is capable of printing and recording weights in the quantity and in the units that you believe are necessary to properly meet the needs of your business. This can include the communication method used between the floor scale and the printer, such as RS-232, USB or Ethernet.
A variety of options are available for printers and data storage space, so with some research you should have no problem finding exactly the type of digital floor scale with a printer that will meet the needs of your particular business
