AccuWeigh recently converted a stainless steel tank, for a northern NSW cosmetics manufacturer, in to a weigh tank by installing four shearbeam load cells, one under each tank leg. In doing this, immediate production benefits became available to this customer by understanding how much product is currently in the tank.

The adage “You can’t manage what you can’t measure” is so true in business and converting storage bins, silos, hoppers, mixing tanks and other vessels in to weigh vessels, simply by adding suitably rated load cells, is a prudent and efficient way to manage product on your site.

AccuWeigh has converted vessels of all shapes and sizes to weighing systems. An added benefit of converting a vessel in to a weighing system is that the digital indicator can be networked to other equipment to either control or to assist in controlling product feed, reporting and statistical analysis, and batching.

AccuWeigh can also provide conversion kits to customers, should they wish to perform as much of the conversion themselves, to assist in keeping costs down. The conversion kits include the load cells, cabling, digital indicator, interface plates or mountings, and documentation to assist with installation.

AccuWeigh has access to a very broad range of load cell brands and types to suit all types of weighing applications. Check out a range of load cells here.
