About Kern Bench Scales
Kern Bench Scales are robust and reliable weighing instruments manufactured by Kern & Sohn GmbH (Germany), designed for industrial and commercial weighing applications where durability and accuracy are needed. These scales, designed to be placed on a workbench or table, are built for everyday use in demanding environments like factories, warehouses, workshops, and retail settings. Kern bench scales, such as the FOB-S Stainless Steel Scales or the FCB Series Bench Dual-Display Scales, are characterised by their sturdy construction, ease of use, and accurate weight measurement across a range of capacities. They bridge the gap between precision laboratory balances and heavy-duty floor scales, offering a versatile weighing solution for many industries across the UK.
Key Measurements
Mass: Kern bench scales measure the mass of objects with a wide range of weighing capacities and readability, depending on the model. Many models, including the FFN Stainless Steel IP65 Bench Scales, feature durable stainless steel weighing surfaces and backlit displays for easy reading. Additional functionalities may include piece counting, PRE-TARE (subtraction of a known container weight), and interfaces for connecting to PCs or printers, enhancing their utility in various tasks.
Applications
Kern bench scales are widely used in:
- Industrial Settings: Ideal for tasks such as commissioning in warehouses, inventory management, and quality control processes, with models like the WTB-N Food Weighing Bench Scales offering precision in food processing and portioning.
- Laboratories: Used for precise measurements in research and development, as well as routine laboratory tasks.
- Production Workstations: Assist in monitoring product weights during the manufacturing process to ensure consistency and compliance with specifications.
- Retail & Commercial (Shops, Food Service): Portion control, general retail weighing, inventory management (where "non-approved for trade" scales suffice).
- Logistics & Distribution: Weighing parcels for shipping.
