Platform Scale – Durable, Accurate Weighing for Farm Operations
An agricultural platform scale is a robust and essential piece of equipment designed for accurate weighing of livestock, feed, produce, and other farm-related materials. Built for durability and precision in demanding agricultural environments, this type of scale typically features a low-profile steel platform with a non-slip surface, allowing for safe and easy loading of animals or bulk items.
These scales are available in various capacity ranges, commonly from 500 kg to over 5,000 kg, depending on the needs of the farm. Most models come with a digital indicator that provides fast, clear readouts, often with features such as tare function, unit conversion, memory storage, and connectivity options for data transfer or integration with farm management systems.
Key Features:
Heavy-duty, corrosion-resistant platform suitable for indoor and outdoor use
High-precision load cells ensure accurate and consistent measurements
Ramps and side rails may be included for easy access and animal containment
Digital or wireless displays for convenient reading and record-keeping
Compatible with livestock cages, crates, or pallets
These scales are ideal for weighing cattle, sheep, goats, feed bags, fertilizer sacks, and harvested crops—providing reliable data for monitoring weight gain, dosing medication, selling produce, or tracking inputs and outputs in farm management.
Whether used in small family farms or large commercial operations, an agricultural platform scale improves efficiency, traceability, and decision-making, helping farmers maintain optimal productivity and animal health.
