Belt
A belt scale system is used to monitor the flow rate for loose bulk material, such as gravel, sand, grain and more. Belt scale systems generally include a weigh frame, speed sensor and an integrator. Weigh frames are the weighing structure and usually consist of load cells and either rollers or idlers on the load cells, which support the conveyor belt. As conveyors carry material, weight is measured by the load cells while the speed and distance are recorded by the speed sensors. An integrator, or indicator, processes the data and displays the weight per hour and total weight. Belt scales are ideal for a wide variety of industries including mining, quarries, and process control.
Bench
A bench scale is ideal for use in a wide range of industrial applications and it can be designed to withstand the demands of harsh environments. Bench scales are a durable platform scale that may have a removeable cover to simplify cleaning processes. Additionally, bench scales can be paired with a variety of weight indicators and an optional column that keeps the indicator at eye level. For load cell protection, there is an overload stop within the frame to ensure that even in accidental shock-loading conditions, the load cell is guarded from harmful forces.

Checkweighers
A static checkweigher, also called a check scale or an over/under scale, is used to ensure that items being weighed are within a specific weight range. This type of scale requires an operator to place an item on the scale and if it is outside of the weight range it is taken out of the production line to be adjusted. Any scale can be used as a static checkweigher, but many manufacturers use bench scales specifically for checkweighing. These models may also have lights to visually indicate if the item is under, within or over acceptable weight limits.

Dimensional
Dimensional weight (dim weight) is the amount of space, or the volume, that a parcel or pallet occupies in relation to its actual weight. Because most carriers rely on dimensions to determine shipping rates, it is critical for logistics personnel to accurately determine dim weight. Using dim weight to plan truck loading also ensures carriers are optimizing truckload potential.
