A scale or balance is a device used to measure weight or mass. These are also known as mass scales, weight ...

  3. Triple beam balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_beam_balance

    Typically, the reading scale of the middle beam reads in 100 gram increments, the far beam in 10 gram increments, and the front beam can read from 0 to 10 grams. [2] The triple beam balance can be used to measure mass directly from the objects, find mass by difference for liquid , and measure out substances.

  4. Spring scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_scale

    The scale on top would read slightly heavier due to also supporting the weight of the lower scale itself. Spring balances come in different sizes. Generally, small scales that measure newtons will have a less firm spring (one with a smaller spring constant ) than larger ones that measure tens, hundreds or thousands of newtons or even more ...

  5. Digital Weight Indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Weight_Indicator

    Digital Weight Indicator also commonly called Weight Indicator [1] is a system of indication or recording of the selector type or one that advances intermittently in which all values are presented digitally, or in numbers. In a digital indicating or recording element, or in digital representation, there are no graduations.

  6. Analytical balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytical_balance

    Before using a triple beam balance, the scale pointer should be at zero. [6] The zero adjustment knob can be used to adjust the scale pointer. Place the objects on the pan and adjust the riders until the scale pointer is at zero again, and then sum the weights marked (e.g. the 4th notch of 100 gram beam is 400g) to find the weight of the sample.

    A pair of scales: An instrument for measuring mass in a force field by balancing forces. Balance; Check weigher measures precise weight of items in a conveyor line, rejecting underweight or overweight objects. Inertial balance; Katharometer; Mass spectrometers measure the mass-to-charge ratio, not the mass, of ionised particles. Weighing scale

  9. Steelyard balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steelyard_balance

    A Scandinavian steelyard is a variant which consists of a bar with a fixed weight attached to one end, a movable pivot point, and an attachment point for the object to be weighed at the other end. Once the object to be weighed is attached to its end of the bar, the pivot point, which is frequently a loop at the end of a cord or chain, is moved ...
