Platform Scales are being used for weighing confiscated guns and knives for Victoria’s Forensic Services Department. Supplied by Accuweigh’s Springvale branch in Melbourne, the platform scale is fitted with a metal bin that requires emptying when the net weight of weapons reaches 1,000kg.
The Australian Made AD3000 platform scale manufactured by A&D Australasia was the preferred supply item for this important weighting application. Lightweight for easy relocation, A&D’s mild steel platform scale has a painted finish and measures 1200mm x 1200mm with a weighing capacity of 2,000kg.
An Avery E1005 weight Indicator generates the digital weight readings and is fitted with an internal re-chargeable battery to provide backup power to the platform scales in case of a power outage. The battery allows for up to two days operation during which the net weight of weapons stored in the metal bin will be displayed and retained in memory.
Accuweigh is Australia’s largest independent scale company and is not locked into a single supplier of weighing equipment which ensures Accuweigh can provide the brand and model that best suits the client’s weighing application. With eight branches across Australia providing complete after sales support, Accuweigh is the logical choice of supplier for all scales and weighing equipment.
