Is the floor scale still as efficient as it used to be?

Choosing the right scale

In industrial sectors, it is essential that products can be weighed. LTL, 3PL, OEM, dealer or end user; companies all over the world need to be able to accurately track their incoming goods and inventory. For years, the industrial floor scale was the product of choice for companies to weigh their fleet. But is it really the most efficient product?

Is a floor scale the right solution?

Industrial floor scales are standard equipment in the manufacturing and distribution industries. From large-scale product quality checks to pallet weights for logistics, floor scales can be used for all kinds of weighing purposes.

Over the years, however, floor scales have proven to be a hindrance to many manufacturers, logistics companies and end users. Initially, this was the only way to weigh products during the work process. Many users find this approach outdated, inefficient and cheap.

No matter how large or small your process is, taking a product to a central point on the work floor for weighing can slow down your daily operations. If stocks and inventory are constantly being moved within your company, you need to be able to weigh products quickly, safely and directly. These tasks require a lot of personnel.

The low price is obviously very appealing when purchasing a floor scale. But does this cheap option also save money in the long run? Does it save your company money or earn you more money?
