Scales and balances are used in classrooms and laboratories for educational purposes. Allowing students to accurately measure ingredients for cooking, technology or science lessons. Scales for schools must be able to withstand high use, regular movement and rougher than usual operation.
Scales and weighing systems for education
The needs of the education system are varied, tightly governed and subject to ever-increasing budget constraints. Scales are used both for educational purposes in classrooms and laboratories as well as for operational functions like waste management.
Balances used to measure ingredients for technology lessons or scientific research must be done using quality weighing equipment to ensure accurate outcomes and the careful management of material costs. Likewise, measuring and recording waste from kitchens or recycling from around the facility requires floor scales that are easy to use, require little maintenance and offer a long operational life to accommodate tight budgets. Accurately weighing waste will allow schools, colleges and universities to transport and dispose of materials in the most cost-effective way, and even earn revenue for recycled materials.
Scales for the education sector must be able to withstand robust use, be cost-effective to purchase and maintain, and be accurate, to ensure safety standards are met and operational efficiencies can be achieved.
Some of the world’s most important industries, like automotive, aerospace, telecommunications and agriculture rely on academic research centres for scientific studies. Such work requires high-precision scales and weighing systems that deliver repeatable, accurate measurements of often expensive or even explosive raw materials.
Schools, colleges and universities need easy to use floor scales or bench scales for waste management. On-site measuring facilities like these allow educational facilities to measure their waste against local and national expectations, arrange for cost-effective transportation and disposal services, and make revenue from recyclable materials.
