Retail Platform Scales

Everything You Need to Know about Retail Platform Scales, in a Nutshell

Digitalisation has become the mantra in the industrial age, and this applies to retail platform and weighing scales as well. Readings are received instantly and accurately using digital scales, helping you to provide your customers with the information they need to make an informed purchasing decision. Platform scales offer some added benefits, along with having all the features that are standard with normal retail scales. The main advantage of platform scales is that the movement of the object to be weighed is minimised. This is a great advantage when dealing with heavy and bulky objects. What is more, the weighing takes place quickly, with little likelihood of breakdowns occurring during the process.

These platform scales are able to weigh large loads, and come equipped with bases on which the material to be weighed can comfortably be placed. The resulting digital reading gives the exact measurement of the object being weighed. The scales have digital displays and can differ in capacities, sizes, and prices, according to your specific needs. One of our most popular retail platform scales is the DS-560 series digital weighing platform scale. It has helped countless retail stores boost their operations and efficiency through the years, and continues to set the standard for excellence in the industry.

Why You Need the DS-560 Series Digital Weighing Platform Scale 

This state-of-the-art platform scale has many handy features making its operation a breeze. One of these features, the selectable automatic shut-off time, makes sure that the scale is not drawing power when not in use. Its intelligent power control also minimise electricity consumption, and since it has an optional rechargeable battery that lasts up to 40 hours, you can use it to guarantee uptime in this way. Should the need arise, there is also the option of using the kilogramme-to-pound conversion, as well as many other advanced weighing technologies incorporated in its design, to your benefit. Its capacity ranges from 1,5 kg all the way up to 600 kg. These are only a few of the many features that make our DS-560 series digital weighing platform scale the ideal scale for your retail store.
