Conveyor Scale FAQs

Conveyor scales are weighing systems that are designed to weigh items as they move along a conveyor belt or other type of conveyor system. They are commonly used in industries such as logistics, manufacturing, and food production to accurately weigh items during the production or shipping process.

Conveyor scales typically consist of a conveyor belt or other conveyor system, along with load cells that measure the weight of items as they move along the conveyor. The weight measurements are then recorded and displayed on a digital readout or transmitted to a computer or other data collection system.

When choosing a conveyor scale, some features to consider include its accuracy, speed, capacity, durability, and connectivity options (such as data logging and reporting capabilities).

Yes, many conveyor scales are designed to be integrated into production lines to provide real time weight measurements and ensure that items are within the acceptable weight range.

To calibrate your conveyor scale, you will typically need a set of certified calibration weights that are traceable to a national or international standard. You can then follow the manufacturer’s instructions for calibrating the scale, which may involve adjusting the calibration settings or performing a zero calibration. It is important to calibrate your conveyor scale regularly to ensure accurate measurements.

Yes, many conveyor scales can be customized to meet specific application requirements. This may include customization of the conveyor system, load cells, or other components to ensure that the scale is suitable for the specific application. It is important to work with a manufacturer or supplier who can provide customized solutions to ensure that the scale meets your specific needs.

"I received a call from a gentleman at Conway Freight regarding your service at Conway in Louisville.  Apparently he was extremely impressed with the service, repairs and installations American Scale completed at the terminal.  During the years we have been doing national service, this is the first time one of the national accounts has called specifically to compliment a dealer.  He has never walked into a terminal and not called me with some issue that needs to be fixed.  He said a couple times over there was not one little thing wrong with the scales that he could find. I want to thank your for everything you have done to present because American Scale represents Rice Lake and you have made both companies look great!  The gentleman who called is also the person who controls the reweighs and scale purchases for Conway corporate.  With that said, he was impressed!"
