When your process demands more than standard accuracy, Arlyn Scales delivers. Our Ultra Precision Scales are powered by patented Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) technology, offering 10-40x the accuracy of traditional strain gauge scales while matching or exceeding the performance of costly magnetic force restoration (MFR) balances at a fraction of the price.
Designed and manufactured in the USA, these scales combine laboratory-grade precision with industrial toughness. With capacities ranging from benchtop models to large high-capacity platforms, Arlyn’s Ultra Precision line provides the accuracy, stability, and durability your operation needs without compromising where it matters.
Why Precision Matters
In industries where even the smallest error can mean wasted materials, compliance issues, or costly rework, accuracy isn’t optional. It is critical. Traditional strain gauge scales often lack the resolution needed for sensitive formulations, while laboratory balances can be too fragile and expensive for real-world industrial environments.
That’s where Arlyn’s Ultra Precision SAW Scales make the difference:
- Pharmaceuticals & Nutraceuticals – Ensure exact dosing and formulation for safety and compliance.
- Paints, Coatings & Chemicals – Eliminate costly misbatches by measuring pigments and additives with pinpoint accuracy.
- Aerospace & Electronics – Count and verify high-value parts where every milligram matters.
- Water Treatment & Environmental Labs – Monitor trace elements with stability and repeatability.
- Food & Beverage – Meet sanitation requirements while achieving precise ingredient control.
With accuracies as fine as 0.005% of full scale and rugged platforms built for daily use, Arlyn Ultra Precision Scales deliver the confidence you need when precision isn’t negotiable.
