Buying a low quality scale will cost you more in the long run than buying a premium quality scale that could be a bit more expensive.

​

A premium quality scale will not only last longer (durability) but are also more likely to provide accurate readings and need calibration less often.

 

It is important for scale seekers in Roodepoort, Gauteng to not only get a premium quality scale, but also go with a trusted scale supplier such as Q-Weigh.  It does not help that you spend money on a scale but it is not from a trusted brand.

What are the benefits of having a premium quality scale from Q-Weigh?

Reliable Measurements

The first thing that comes to mind regarding the benefits of having a good quality scale is that it will provide accurate measurements whereas a low quality scale might provide questionable readings.

​

A good quality scale will also provide a choice of measurement units such as kilograms (kg) and pounds (lb).

​
Increased productivity in the workplace

In the event that your inventory is weighed, the quality of the scale and its ability to provide accurate readings will influence how accurate your inventory tracking is.  This can have a significant impact on your planning and affect costing calculation of inventory.

​

Likewise a good quality scale can assist with measuring the correct amount of product to be shipped to the customer and avoid unhappy customers who may check that they receive the correct amount ordered.

​

Buying a premium scale can assist with avoiding downtime and disruptions in your business as well which increases productivity.

 

Cost-effective

The better the quality scale, the less likely it is to need overly regular calibration or maintenance which in turn saves our scale and weighbridge customers in Roodepoort money.

​

In Afrikaans there is a saying that goes “Goedkoop koop is duurkoop” which essentially means if you buy cheaply, you pay dearly.  Although it does not necessarily mean that you get bad quality when the price is good, nor is it certain that if you pay a lot for something the quality will be great – it is however often the case.  

​

Therefore it is better for our customers in Roodepoort and elsewhere to pay more when buying the scale (still make sure that the quality you get is worth the price) than to get a cheap scale of bad quality and need to either buy a new scale again or often pay for repairs and maintenance.

The Importance of Industrial Scales in Warehouses

​

Businesses in Roodepoort often have warehouses where supplies and other products are stocked. Sometimes these supplies must be weighed for various reasons.

Accuracy

When using scales in the warehouse environment it can enable the business to monitor inventory with more accuracy.  This can in turn expose theft and assist with avoiding errors.

​

Complying with Safety Regulations

There are various rules that apply in industrial settings and some of these relate to cargo and other weight limits.  Using an industrial scale can assist the warehouse staff to stay within the weight limits as stipulated by safety regulations and law.  

​

This applies not only for inside the warehouse, but also for loading vehicles.  If a vehicle is loaded too heavily there may be trouble with law enforcement on the road which could result in fines.  It can also cause more wear and tear on the vehicle which could result in more expensive repairs.

​

Minimizing the paperwork

Some industrial scales can be connected to a printer and you are able to easily access the relevant documents with regards to weight. Besides for being able to access and print barcodes, inventory lists and other weight details, you can also track records and data more accurately due to the fact that readings are not added manually by a person which means no human error can occur.

 

Various Options Available

Industrial scales are available in many different shapes, sizes and capabilities.  It is a good idea to do some research as to what type of scale will suit your weighing requirements best before buying a scale or weighbridge in Roodepoort, Gauteng.

 

An Industrial Scale is a Long-term investment

A premium quality industrial scale should be a long term investment, not a short term solution to get by.  These scales are made to be durable and to withstand shocks to a certain extent.
