Any manufacturing environment that receives raw materials by the truckload stands to benefit from using a truck scale. In stone manufacturing, the sheer weight of the incoming and outgoing goods means that a truck scale should be used to determine the weight of incoming goods and to avoid overloading outgoing vehicles. For busy sites, truck scales can be paired with indicators, barriers, and traffic lights to create complete traffic management systems.
Scales and weighing systems for ceramics, stone and glass manufacturing.
Manufacturers of ceramics, glass, concrete and stone need to operate as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible. Weighing scales and systems from Avery Weigh-Tronix can help to measure inputs, collect and analyze data, and monitor wastage.
By pairing electronic scales such as truck scales, deck scales, bench scales, checkweighers or counting scales with sophisticated software and indicators, it is possible to create weighing systems capable of delivering the highest level of accuracy for ceramics, stone, and glass manufacturers. All of our scales can be easily integrated into existing operations and networks and are designed to stand up to tough manufacturing environments.
The use of tank weighing systems is common in ceramic manufacturing to measure the weight of liquids and binders which are stored in tanks and vessels. As well as being an ideal way to manage inventory, load cells can be paired with indicators to meet precise batching and ingredient parameters, to ensure consistent product quality and process control.
Scales and weighing equipment used in glass manufacturing must be able to stand up to extremely high temperatures. Our range of bench bases and checkweighers are built to withstand high temperatures, as well as having IP69K protection from dust and water ingress.
Their robust design and build, along with high accuracy weighing, make them ideal for use in the glass manufacturing process, from weighing incoming raw materials, mixing and blending, and weighing of outgoing finished goods.
In any environment where fine particles of flammable gases are present, using intrinsically safe, or ATEX FM, equipment can reduce the risk of explosions. Avery Weigh-Tronix has a range of weighing equipment that is specifically designed and certified for use in explosive environments.
