Weighing Stations

We design and manufacture a range of industrial weighing stations here in Leicester. Built for production environments, our stations integrate with software and printers to support full traceability and functions such as barcode labelling, recipe weighing, portion control and checkweighing.

We supply organisations operating in the food, chemical, and pharmaceutical sectors where accurate weighing, compliance, and robust process control are essential.

What is a weighing station?

When we refer to weighing stations, we do not mean standalone industrial scales. Our weighing stations are designed for production environments, combining industrial weighing with connectivity to software and printers, usually found in food manufacturing businesses we help improve traceability. Real-time data capture is enabled across the factory production floor, supporting traceability, reducing manual input, improving compliance, and strengthening process control.

Weighing Stations We Manufacture
Portion Control Weighing Station Our purpose built MCN6000 is designed specifically for FMCG food manufacturers, typically found running as multiple stations on a production line, we have sold hundreds of the MCN6000 stations linked to easy to use software for check weighing portions and granular line management in production halls.
OCM Labelling Station OCM Labelling Solutions are hygienic outer-case marking stations combining a stainless-steel weighing platform, industrial label printer and Windows touchscreen. They integrate with ERP/order workflows to speed packing, automate labels and deliver multi-level traceability for faster recalls.
Recipe Weighing Station Our pallet weighing scales are designed for the robust working environments often found in logistics and warehousing. Available for all types of pallets and industrial bulk containers, our pallet scales can be installed in a permanent position or fully portable when supplied with battery weighing displays.
Average Weighing Station Our pallet weighing scales are designed for the robust working environments often found in logistics and warehousing. Available for all types of pallets and industrial bulk containers, our pallet scales can be installed in a permanent position or fully portable when supplied with battery weighing displays.
Bespoke Weighing Stations Another area of specialty are our carefully curated weighing stations, these stations are designed for a variety of applications from outer case labelling and box labelling to check weighing through to recipe weighing solutions with multiple bench scales, options include conveyor tracks and printer garages for wet environments.

What is an Industrial Weighing Station?

A weighing station is an integrated weighing “workcell” designed to do more than display a weight. It combines a scale (or load cell platform) with the hardware and software interfaces needed to capture, validate, label, and transmit weight data in real time as part of a production process.

Unlike a standard bench scale used for ad-hoc checks, a weighing station is typically built to support connected manufacturing. In practical terms, that means it is engineered to:

• Connect to systems: send weight readings directly into manufacturing or quality systems (e.g., MES/ERP, batch records, inventory, SPC) rather than relying on manual entry.

• Enable real-time data capture: record weights at the point of use on the factory floor with timestamps, operator IDs, product/batch IDs, and other metadata.

• Integrate with printers and peripherals: automatically generate labels, batch tickets, packing slips, or compliance documentation immediately after a weighment.

• Support controlled workflows: guide the operator through steps (select job, scan barcode, weigh, confirm tolerances, print, transmit), reducing errors and rework.

• Improve traceability and compliance: create an auditable record of weighments, including who did what, when, and against which specification.
