Crane Scale Benefits

Load monitoring prevents crane accidents, ensures compliance, maintains employee safety and protects equipment. Scales should meet OSHA, ANSI, ASME and other safety design standards (5:1 Ultimate Safety Factor).

Process control helps meet the requirements of in-process crane scales, which include accurate weighments, real-time information and integration with manufacturing software.

Data integration systems increase informational precision and control, stream data from the weighing system to a customer’s database and help reduce human error.
