Are you receiving everything
you purchased?

Are you receiving everything Many manufacturers monitor bulk material transfer with METTLER TOLEDO scales to ensure that all material has been transferred into their storage silos and not left in the vehicle or transfer system. Weighing confirms that you are not losing money if your supplier ships by volume or mass flow. Convert your existing scale to METTLER TOLEDO.


Weighing maintains
accurate inventory in tanks, silos or hoppers.

Weight is independent of vessel shape and size – perfect for nonself-leveling materials.And, because weigh modules do not come into contact with the process media, maximum precision and equipment lifetime are ensured.

 

 

Choose either standard or hygienic floor scales or unloading systems.

Many high quality machine
builders integrate METTLER
TOLEDO sensors / scales into their unloading systems, especially
when time-based material discharge needs to be tightly controlled.

 

 


 


Weigh Modules

METTLER TOLEDO weigh modules provide the highest accuracy and reliability for static or dynamic applications where loading involves horizontal forces. PINMOUNT PDX is available in capacities of 20t, 30t, 50t. A broken cable or damaged cell signals an immediate message so you can respond quickly, minimizing downtime. SafeLock™ improves your site safety.

 

Automated Production
Less Rework and No Bad Batches
When accurate analytical and weighing measurements are performed,METTLER TOLEDO sensors reduce batch-to-batch variation and ensure that your processes are repeatable even under changing conditions.

Process
Analytics Solutions

METTLER TOLEDO offers integrated in-line process control analysis into your systems via appropriate high-performance transmitters for pH, dissolved oxygen, CO2, conductivity, and turbidity measurements. Immediate, reliable and continuous results provide the base for optimized plant performance.
 

Liquid Weighing
 

In many processes, integrated weighing sensors have been found to yield better results than flow meters, because weighing sensors do not require cleaning when your materials change. Preweighing batch components can effectively speed up production. METTLER TOLEDO load cells precisely control the addition of liquids into your reactor or mixer.

Solids Weighing
 

Dry materials are best processed by weighing, because weight is a more constant measurement than volume. If you are seeing variations in your weighing results, consider using METTLER TOLEDO automation sensors and METTLER TOLEDO load cells in your systems.
 

 

Intelligent Sensor Management (ISM®)

"Plug and Measure" is an outstanding feature of METTLER TOLEDO ISM technology. It leads to fast, hassle-free system start-up and optimized maintenance routines in the field. This approach helps to minimize life-cycle costs of analytical in-line measurement systems throughout your entire plant.
