In the general index you will find package balances for professional mailing / shipping. With package balances you will be able  to calculate in few seconds the weight of the object is going to be sent. Package balances can be used for a wide range of functions. In our web page you will find light package balances provided with plastic cases or heavy stainless steel package balances. Some package balances can be powered by external batteries to get more mobility. Package balances with weight range from 30 to 60 kg are the most requested by the customer. Some models with RS- 232  interface have optional software to allow for data on the display to be printed or stored data to be transferred to a computer. This function make your job easier. If it is required, data can be sent to other calculation programs such as MS Excel.  If you don't find the package scale you are looking for, please contact us and we will help you find the best solution to suit your needs by calling our office: +44 (0) 191 377 3398 and our technical staff will advise you regarding our balances.

Many balances are not used only for packaging but they can be universally used in the industrial sector. So, almost all package balances have piece count or percent calculation functions (balances with percent function determine the variation in relation to the weight of the corresponding reference). Official calibration certificates (for calibrated postal balances) can be obtained in our web page. Below, there some examples of the professional use of our package balances.

Package balances are traditionally used in the industrial field. These digital balances work under the harshest environmental conditions without problems. It is usually said that mechanical package balances are better for this field. Technical / electrical components of digital package balances have been improved to cover sudden movements so some of our package balances come with a damping device. Most of package balances have an interface available to be connected to a computer or to a printer to make data protocols with the weights obtained. PCE-PM series package balances have an internal software to be connected to DHL, GLS and UPS software.
Verification: To meet with the standard, all package balances must be verified when they are used for one of the following functions: In trade relationships, when the price of the product is determined by its weight. To make medicines and formulations in pharmacy as well as detailed analysis in medical or pharmaceutical laboratories.  For official activities such as determining rates or sanctions. For judicial expertise. For the production of packages.
If you require additional information about verification of package balances, or you are not sure if you need a verified scale, you can contact your local authorized Verification Centre. Verification of package balances , only for those that can be verified, can be done when balances are ordered or they can be sent for a periodical verification. Once an official verification has been done package balances cannot be recalibrated using an external calibration weight. The first verification is valid for two years, but each following validation is good for one year and must be done annually by the authorized verification centre
