Types of Digital Scales

There are so many types of digital scales available in the market. These scales are mainly classified on the basis of usage. Some scales are used for a single purpose and some others are beneficial for multiple purposes.

Some among the popular types of digital scales are baby, adult, food, nutrition, diet, bathroom, laboratory, animal, crane and truck, metal weighing, postage and shipping, and counting scales. Baby scales are used in hospitals, doctor's offices, and even homes to know the growth rate of babies and infants on a regular basis.

Food, diet, and nutrition scales are used to know the amount of food intake. These types of digital scales are well suited for body builders and individuals who are conscious about their weights. Bathroom scales help you to take individual weights. These scales are most often obtained with additional features including body fat measurements.

Laboratory scales find use in medical and scientific areas where small particles such as dust and lint are to be measured. Animal scales are designed to weigh farm animals and pets. These scales are made special for different animals and birds so as to keep them comfortable and relaxed while weighing. Crane scales are generally hanging scales with some sort of lifts to take the heavy objects. Truck scales take vehicle weights including that of tankers and rigs.

Metal weighing scales are used to weigh gold, silver, and other precious and semi precious stones. These are generally used in jewelry shops and by individuals who buy and sell jewelry items.

Postal scales are useful to weigh postage mails and parcels. Most digital postage scales available now are designed in such a way that the scales are programmed with postal rate information. This helps the scales to adjust rates each time the value changes and to display the right amount for postal services.

Counting scales are among the commonly used digital scales. These serve the function of counting currencies and coins. In machine part manufacturing industries, digital scales are useful to count parts as well as to take weights.
