Maintaining the accuracy of scale systems is not only essential to quality control, it is critical in avoiding fines for conformity. Having a robust PM program for scales is the cornerstone of many quality programs. Scale accuracy is also a key factor in maintaining consistent output in modern manufacturing processes. You don’t have to be a lean manager to know what re-weighs will do to one piece flow.
American Scale & Equipment has one of the largest service staffs in the Mid-Atlantic area, delivering repair, calibration, on-site maintenance, and 24/7 emergency repair services. Having American Scale as part of your quality audit will ensure consistent, precision operations, backed up by certificates of calibration and online reporting with CECIS.
Our PMs and repair services include everything from the calibration and testing of load cells to stand replacement and concrete foundation repairs. Whether you need a complete overhaul, or a periodic maintenance contract, American Scale & Equipment can accommodate the needs for any digital, hydraulic or analog scale up to 600,000 lbs. Services offered can be A2LA accredited, NTEP certified, and in compliance with ISO/IEC 17025, and with NIST standards for traceable weights.
Augmenting these impressive capabilities is American Scales ability to provide consultation support. With so many years in the industry, we have a vast knowledge base to pull from.
