The main value of steelyard

1. As a traditional weighing instrument independently invented by China, the steelyard is no less scientific than the electronic scale. It has been used in China for thousands of years, and its social value can be said to be ubiquitous, which is difficult to describe in words-in real life, because the steelyard is easy to carry, farmers in the mountains will also carry a steelyard to prevent merchants from being cheated. This proves that the steelyard still has its application value, and in a certain sense, it still retains the original ecology and sustainable development of green measurement tools.

The steelyard is more humanized than the electronic scale. During the sales process, the seller shouted with a big smile, "Look, the steelyard is high", and the buyer looked at the steelyard that was tilted high, feeling that it really got great benefits and paid the money with great joy. It has humanistic characteristics, and the business done by steelyard embodies the uniqueness of China culture. China people pay attention to the exchange of human feelings under certain principles, which is different from the accurate calculation under foreign hard principles, so they don't exchange hard money in business, which is more like an emotional exchange between people.

13. Its ups and downs record the history of social life changes. Under the global background that the big industrial civilization challenges the handicraft civilization, under the guidance of the concept of "scientificity, modernization and cooperation", China has restricted, criticized, reformed and cracked down on the traditional steelyard and its production from the ideological, technical and industrial systems for decades. Even so, today, electronic scales have been widely used in commercial measurement, and the traditional steelyard still has a certain mass market.

3. The traditional manual weighing technology in China originated thousands of years ago, which concentrated the high wisdom of orientals in emphasizing intuition and advocating simplicity and practicality, and also condensed a lot of exquisite technology and rich professional knowledge. It still has special research value in science and technology, history, humanities and sociology, and it is bound to have its future survival and development status.
