We have just developed a new program that interfaces a Zebra GK420d label printer to most scales that feature an RS232 output. The printing solution is £399.00, this can then be connected to a majority of scales we offer.
The new package allows you to print weights on labels with upto 4 lines of fixed header information, such as a company name and phone number or product information. We can also now print date and times on to the labels, this is dependant on the type of indicator used.

Buying scales calibrated by the supplier is a good idea to ensure correct weight readings.

This was a question posed to me by a new customer yesterday, (they have bought 8 x ATEX platform scales and indicators for weighing IBC’s of resin and other materials).
Our customer didn’t understand the difference between the traceable certificate we supply and EC verification, its a common problem and that is the reason for this post.

We have launched a crazy offer this month for fans of Apple and Ohaus weighing scales. Simply spend over £1000 on Ohaus weighing scales of balances to qualify for a free iPod Shuffle worth £50.00, any customer that spends over £2000.00 will qualify for a free iPod Nano worth £120.00.
We are happy to ship the free gifts to an alternative address if needed.
Unfortunately this deal is only in conjunction with Ohaus products at present.

Historically ATEX weighing equipment was a lot more expensive than standard area weighing scales. The technology to protect the area from risk of explosion often multiplied the costs of basic scales.
