Mobile Weighing or Floor Scale Weighing - What is better?
Weighing products is essential in the Industrial industry. Whether they are an LTL, 3PL, OEM, Dealer, or End User, companies worldwide need to consider their incoming goods and maintain their inventory accurately. For years, the industrial floor scale was the go-to product for companies to manage the weight of their fleet. But, is it the most efficient?
Should You Use Industrial Floor Scales?
Industrial Floor Scales are a staple when it comes to manufacturing and distribution. From quality control checks for large batches of produced products to pallet weights for shipping and logistics, floor scales have endless amounts of helpful weighing purposes.
However, over time many manufacturers, logistics companies, and end-users have found floor scales to operate as bottlenecks in their operations. Initially designed as the only way to weigh products within the process of your fleet operations, many users have found this method of weighing to be outdated, inefficient, and cheap.
Notwithstanding the size of your operations, taking a product to a single point on the floor to weigh inventory can cause causes many inefficiencies to your day-to-day operations. If your company is constantly turning around stock and inventory, you need to quickly, safely, and promptly weigh the product. Also, you have to consider the workforce you are investing in to handle these tasks.
A floor scale may be a cheaper option at first glance when purchasing a weighing scale. But is it the more affordable option in the long run? Will it save your company money or make it money?
