By Dr. Ellen Hage, Axel Taube, Dr. Julian Haller, Niclas Ludolph

Correct weight values are extremely important for weighing processes in production, as well as for (quality) analysis. But how can the balance user be sure that the weight shown on the display is the same as the mass of the substance being weighed? This white paper describes possibilities for the user to control and test a balance with test weights. Recommendations and practical examples are given for which weights can be used to test a weighing instrument. The importance of the correct handling of weights is also described, and practical tips for handling are provided. Download the full white paper to learn more.
