How is Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) technology different from a standard industrial scale?
SAW technology is an all-digital, patented platform that measures weight by tracking frequency changes in a crystalline sensor. This method is significantly more accurate and stable than traditional analog strain gauge systems—delivering lab-level precision with superior resistance to temperature drift and signal noise.
Can I really get laboratory-level accuracy in an industrial environment?
Yes. Ultra Precision SAW Scales provide up to 0.005% accuracy—10–20x better than typical industrial models—while also withstanding heavy use, shock loading, and harsh conditions. You get true lab-grade results, plus industrial durability.
What is the difference between the standard indicator and the UpScale touchscreen?
The MKE-5 digital indicator is a clear, fast, industrial display included with every scale. The UpScale 7” touchscreen upgrade offers an intuitive interface, advanced app capabilities, enhanced data management, and support for the latest automation protocols.
How stable are these scales if my plant has temperature swings or vibration?
SAW technology is engineered for minimal drift (less than 3 parts per million per degree Celsius). Built-in filtering ensures stable, reliable readings—even in environments with vibration, humidity, or changing temperatures.
Can I use these scales for parts counting or batching?
Absolutely. All SAW models include parts counting as a standard feature, with superior accuracy for lightweight or high-value components. Setpoints, batching, and process automation features are available with relay and control upgrades.
How do I connect the scale to my computer, PLC, or ERP system?
All models support USB, Ethernet, RS-232, and industrial protocols like Modbus and PROFINET (UpScale required). You can log data locally, to a PC, or direct to the cloud using Google Sheets or AxChange Monitoring.
What is the overload protection on these scales?
Ultra Precision SAW Scales are built tough, with 250% safe overload protection and warnings at 102% capacity. They are designed to handle real-world shocks without damage.
Are intrinsically safe models available?
Yes. For hazardous or classified environments, Arlyn offers FM Approved, intrinsically safe Ultra Precision SAW models. See our ArlynGuard S Series or contact our team for more details.
Can I order a custom platform size or configuration?
Definitely. We manufacture in the USA and offer custom platform sizes, capacities, multi-platform systems, and special configurations for unique applications. Contact us for tailored solutions.
What kind of support can I expect?
You receive direct support from our Long Island, NY facility—engineers and technicians who know your scale inside and out. We pride ourselves on responsive, knowledgeable service, from initial setup to ongoing maintenance.
