Brady Systems - eNewsletter

It's been a while since we have brought you news on some of the new and exciting developments from Brady Systems and METTLER Toledo. Learn how Form+ can move you from a paper-based batching system to one that can improve output and provide traceability. RapidCal is a game changer for those who have to calibrate large tank scales. Lastly, a lot of people think accuracy and resolution are the same. They are not. This newsletter includes a short example of how they are different.

Form+ Formulation Software for Manual Batching Paper-based formulation systems are prone to errors due to simple human error and unreadable handwriting. Operators must focus on producing high-quality products and documenting the projection results. In the case of an issue, you must go through these documents manually. This can be extremely time-consuming.  With Form+ formulation software, your operators can focus on products without being distracted by typical documentation requirements. This gives you reliable, traceable, automatically stored data.

RapidCal Tank Scale Calibration Traditionally, tank scales are calibrated using such different methods as flow meters, substitution, or test weights. Using test weights is the most accurate way to calibrate a tank scale. But it isn’t always the most practical, especially at higher capacities. It is slow and costly. METTLER TOLEDO now offers a new way to calibrate tanks scales: RapidCal. This method offers an economical and fast calibration method that is traceable, and operates without using test weight or purified liquids, or the risk of scale contamination.

Did You Know? Weighing accuracy is often confused with resolution. Accuracy is a scale's weight reading measured against the actual weight on the scale. Resolution is the smallest incremental change in weight that can be displayed by a weighing terminal. The diagram to the right illustrates this concept. Although the terminal has a resolution of 0.1 lbs, the weight reading is inaccurate by 0.3 lb.

ICS465 Counting Scale Assisted Quality Checks Shipping electronic parts around the globe just in time isn’t an easy task, even for logistics experts. Counting scales speed up parts picking while ensuring accuracy in one of Switzerland’s most modern warehouses. Covering nearly 415,000 square feet, the DB Schenker warehouse in Switzerland offers land transport, air and ocean freight, contract logistics, and customs services under one roof.
