The systems feature ColorWeight-enabled displays that give immediate feedback if a portion is over or under tolerance. Every scale is available with 3 different terminal-mounting options: compact, column mounted or separate weigh terminal. A built-in battery and WLAN capability allow quick pick-up-and-go.
