Mobile Scales

Mobile floor scales are designed for locations that require flexible weighing without being anchored to one spot. Made by MWS in the UK, these scales are designed for easy movement around factories and production areas, allowing operators to weigh items right where it fits into their workflow.

Equipped with integrated wheels or forklift guides, mobile floor scales can be quickly and safely moved between different departments. They provide the same reliable accuracy as traditional fixed floor scales, all while accommodating changing layouts, temporary processes, and the demands of growing operations.
