How to Calibrate Blade Scales
Field inspectors need access to devices that allow them to perform necessary measurements away from laboratory conditions. Workers in the restaurant industry might want to accurately portion food prior to purchasing it or adding it to a recipe. Blade scales, manufactured by the American Weigh Scales company, target consumers on-the-go who need to weigh small objects accurately. Blade scales feature a backlit display, a small, pocketable size and a convenient carrying case. Accurate measurements depend on proper tool calibration so Blade scales come equipped with a calibration function to ensure the device is weighing items properly.
