Laboratory Balance Weighs Food Fortification Powders
Accuweigh’s Newcastle branch recently supplied a precision laboratory balance to Nature’s Selection Tuggerah plant in NSW for weighing precise amounts of food additives.
To achieve the required high accuracy in weighing the food fortification powders, an A&D laboratory balance was installed. With a weighing capacity of 4,000g by 0.1g increments and the ability to accurately weigh both very minute and large volumes of food additives; AND’s EK-4100i laboratory balance was ideal for this application.
AND’s EK laboratory balances are fully trade approved and replaced a faulty set of balance scales that was no longer suited for the high accuracy needs of this weighing application.
For increased OH&S compliance, a remote display was connected to the serial port of the laboratory balance and mounted at eye level. This optional accessory eliminates operator neck strain caused by the need to continually look down at the main scale display to see the weight readings.
Accuweigh is Australia’s largest industrial weighing company and has branches in all mainland states providing complete after sales service and support on laboratory balances.
