Electronic measuring instruments are designed to provide very accurate results. For industrial applications, there are instruments for measuring temperature, pressure, voltage and current, color, light levels, sound frequency and amplitude, velocity, and a very wide variety of other values. One of the most common applications is for electronic scales to accurately measure weight. There are … Continued
Scales have always been an important piece of equipment to accurately measure the weight of things. Many consumers may have scales in their homes to track their own weight. However, scales also play a very important part in various types of industries. Scales are considered vital in many different types of businesses. There are various … Continued
While technology has seen great advances over the last sixty or so years, it is only recently that these advances have shifted into the industrial realm of scales. Prior to these advances, industries whose operations required weight measurements had to choose between the two standard types of scale technology — strain gage and magnetic force … Continued
We live in a society that is governed by change. “The only constant is change,” a quote by Heraclitus in 500 B.C.E., applies to this day and age as much as it did 1500 years earlier. Good decisions take into account the direction the world is headed. This axiom is clear in the directives of … Continued
Industrial scale technology has been fairly stagnant for a number of years. The predominant technology has been strain gage load cells. When increased accuracy is required, magnetic force restoration, also known as magnetic force motor transducers are used. The disadvantage of force restoration is significantly increase cost. Recently, though, Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) scales have … Continued
Over the last few decades, industrial scale technology has become stagnant. Strain gage load cells have been the predominant technology. However, these scales may not be as precise as some industries require. When strain gage scales are not capable of providing the necessary measurements, magnetic force restoration scales are used. However, these scales are much … Continued
So often in our industry, we find our competitors buying foreign scales and subassemblies and rebranding them. Mixing parts detracts from the overall quality and performance of the scale; so does buying low quality devices from overseas. At Arlyn Scales, we do not conduct business this way. When you’re looking for the best industrial bench … Continued
Multi use platform scales provide the exact function that their name suggests. They are functional for a wide variety of uses. As an example, in the medical community, they might be used to weigh patients in a standing position but also to weigh those who are confined to a chair. The multiple uses of this … Continued
The Technology of Arlyn Scales Vs. Traditional Technology Arlyn scales are electronic weighing systems designed to provide the most precise results possible. Arlyn manufacturers focus on utilizing the most advanced technology of the contemporary age in order to construct a product with utmost quality and value. The precision of Arlyn scales is comparable with that … Continued
Sometimes standard scales are not equipped with the necessary elements to make them resistant to corrosive materials. Certain industrial environments make it difficult to use these scales to weigh cylinders and containers of chemicals and other corrosives. Aggressive acids and caustics present in these environments affect the materials used in standard scales, which ultimately render … Continued
There are some sports where every ounce matters, and where every pound can make the difference between champion, qualifying or being disqualified from the start. Whether it’s wrestling or another kind of athletic event, tournament weigh-in scales are an important factor in determining who gets to compete, who might win, and who will never make … Continued
One man’s trash is another man’s treasure and even a source of income. There are many people who make a living by buying scrap metal that other people consider junk. Scrap metal is sold by weight. Therefore, special types of metal scales are needed to get an accurate weight on scrap metal. Different types of … Continued
