What are the types of scales?

The types of scales include scale, bench scale, bench scale, spring scale, electronic scale, pallet scale, electronic scale and loader electronic scale.

Balance is a weighing instrument for measuring the mass of an object. There are common scales, such as steelyard, bench scale and bench scale. Generally speaking, the spring scale can replace the demand of the object with the weight of the object to be measured.

The development of ancient steelyard has long been based on the use of rope buckles, non-quantitative weights and wooden, bamboo and bone scales. It was not until the 20th century that the steelyard gradually changed from the traditional rope buckle structure to the outer knife buckle plus knife bearing structure or the inner knife buckle plus knife bearing structure.

Extended data

steelyard

A small weighing instrument, with a wooden or metal rod with star point and taper as the main body, is equipped with a weight, a weight rope and a weighing pan (or hook). According to the scope of use and the size of the scale, it can be divided into shovel scale, pot scale and hook scale.

Platform scale/balance

The load-bearing device is a rectangular desktop, usually a small scale used on the ground. According to the structural principle, it can be divided into mechanical platform scale and electronic platform scale.

spring balance

A weighing instrument that measures the weight of an object by using the deformation of a spring under the gravity of the object. Its weight can range from 1 mg to dozens of tons.
