Functions of a Counting Scale
A counting scale specially designed for counting from BOSCHE can determine unknown quantities, check known quantities, portion, and commission. These high-quality precision scales are primarily used in goods receipt, production, storage, inventory, and for internal control weighings.
Calibrated Counting Scales – Made in Germany
Many BOSCHE counting scales are calibratable. If a counting scale is used for consumer protection or sales purposes, it must be calibrated. For this purpose, BOSCHE employees are authorized to perform the EU initial calibration of scales in accordance with Directive 2014/31/EU. This calibration ensures compliance with legal regulations. As a buyer of calibrated scales, you benefit from timely production tailored to your requirements.
Displays and Accessories for Counting Scales and Counting Systems
A high external and multiple internal resolution ensures smooth counting of large quantities of small parts. The automatic reference optimization improves the average value of the part weight. The display on three LCD screens allows the operator to view all essential data at a glance.
To calculate the number of pieces from these values, the total weight is simply divided by the piece weight (also called the reference weight):
Number of Pieces = Total Weight / Reference Weight
The weight and the number of pieces (counting results) can be added to the memory. BOSCHE counting scales are equipped as standard with quantity and weight control using adjustable limits (an audible signal sounds when the selected quantity or weight is exceeded). All counting scales from the Damme-based company can be optionally equipped with a rechargeable battery. The rechargeable battery ensures maximum mobility, making these scales indispensable, mobile, and daily helpers. The weighing range can be selected at the time of order.
Durable Constructions
With state-of-the-art weighing sensor technology, you receive a counting scale designed for long-term professional use in industry and commerce. By using robust components and protecting all load cells and cables within the frame or structure, these scales are optimally shielded against the harsh environments of industry or craftsmanship. An increased load capacity of the measuring devices also ensures a significantly longer service life.
Frequently Asked Questions About Counting Scales
What is a Counting Scale?
A counting scale or counting system is a scale that determines the number of placed items based on a known piece weight. The core function is therefore weighing and counting large quantities as quickly as possible, such as during regular inventories.
How Does a Counting System Work?
The total weight on the counting scale is divided by the known piece weight. This results in the number of pieces. It is important that all items have the same individual weight.
What Types of Counting Scales Are There?
Counting scales are available in various designs: as table scales, platform scales, or floor scales. Special scales also include pallet trucks with counting scales. In terms of weighing principles, counting scales do not differ from regular table scales. Counting scales use a strain gauge load cell and weighing electronics.
Where Are Counting Scales Used?
Counting scales are predominantly used in warehouses and inventory management. They are used as inventory scales, for counting small parts (such as screws), or larger quantities in production.
Buying a Counting Scale - What Factors Influence the Selection of the Right Counting Scale?
Counting scales are essential for logistics and industry in determining precise quantities and weights. Therefore, a few factors should be considered before choosing a specific model. These include:
- Smallest piece weight
- Maximum total weight or load capacity
- Size of the weighing platform
Only by aligning the technical capabilities with your individual weighing requirements can a reliable and satisfactory result be achieved. Our team is happy to assist with any questions or uncertainties and advise you on our industrial scales with counting functions.
