Ultra Precision Industrial Scales with New Technology Introduced By Arlyn Scales

Electronic Industrial Scales are among the most common instruments used throughout a variety of different industries. Industrial engineers and purchasers of electronic scales have two overriding characteristics that they must trade off in their purchasing decision; accuracy and cost. There have traditionally been two predominant technologies that are used by the vast majority of these scales. The first is strain gage load cells, which offer good accuracy and lower costs. The second is force motor, or force restoration technology which offers excellent accuracy and high costs. Arlyn Scales has developed a second generation of Ultra Precision Scales using an internationally patented third technology, Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) load cells, which provide superior accuracy to even the force motor scales at a cost which is comparable to high quality strain gage digital scales.
