The new VPWN platform scale from VECHTA Waagen GmbH is manufactured in Germany from stainless steel and is particularly suitable for the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. VECHTA Waagen GmbH has achieved a masterpiece with the VPWN platform scale. Especially flat and completely made of stainless steel, this platform scale convinces with outstanding measuring results. The platform is available up to protection class IP69K, which means it can be hygienically cleaned without damage. Different platform sizes from 200 x 200 mm up to 600 x 800 make the scale the ideal companion for many applications. In combination with the WA-08 scale display, multi-component dosing is easy to implement. The evaluation can also take over the control and control the feed of individual components via potential-free contacts. VECHTA Waagen GmbH grants a warranty of 3 years on the platform scale VPWN, beyond the legal warranty claim. This is due to the excellent product quality and the monitoring of the production. Made of 5 mm stainless steel in V2A or, on request, also in V4A, the compact, only 55 mm high construction is extremely stable. It’s the

Floor scales can be used in a variety of ways for all kinds of applications. In logistics, however, there are special requirements. You can read about these and how VECHTA Waagen GmbH implements them below. The dimensions are decisive Euro pallets or one-way pallets with identical dimensions of 1200 x 800 mm are often used in logistics. In the 1960s, today’s pallet dimensions for the Euro pallet were defined and standardised. In July 1961, the first contract was signed for the use of today’s Euro pallets. A floor scale with the dimensions 1200 x 800 mm would therefore be a perfect measurement, one might assume. However, there are no floor scales with these dimensions on the market. A gap in the market? No, because it depends on the loading. With a forklift truck, it would be no problem to place a Euro pallet on a scale of the same dimensions. But if the pallet is loaded with a pallet truck, the situation is quite different. The pallet truck is longer than the pallet. In addition, the pallet truck must be removed from the scales so that it is not weighed as well. Of course, with many scales you can also set a tare value, a so-called PreTare. A size of 1250 x 1500

Load cells for all areas of an industrial operation directly from the manufacturer, suited to your application, material choice, protection class, etc. Load cells for all areas of an industrial operation directly from the manufacturer. Weighing is carried out in all areas of industry and load cells of various types based on strain gauges are frequently used. The different load cells are presented and described in detail on our website. Suited to application Depending on the application, different features come to the fore and determine the choice of load cell type. While single point load cells are used for smaller platforms or in various systems, shear beam load cells are used in floor scales, hopper scales or silo scales. Some applications require very fast weight determination, where bending beam load cells have a clear advantage. Material choice The material is also often a selection criterion. Aluminium offers excellent properties for obtaining high-resolution results at smaller nominal loads. Tool steel is comparatively inexpensive and offers a wide range of applications. Stainless steel is indispensable

VECHTA Waagen GmbH has registered a new brand, 1St VeWa, and will be selling the high-quality products made in Germany under this name in the future. Everything the same? Not quite. OMEGA Waagen GmbH is starting the new year 2023 with a new brand. In the future, our high-quality products made in Germany will be sold under the 1St VeWa brand. Why this brand? On the one hand, the first part ”1St”, derived from the English ”first”, is intended to represent our claim to the first position in high-quality products from the field of scales and weighing technology. The second part ”VeWa” represents a connection to our company headquarters in Vechta and our core business ”scales”. We were able to significantly increase our sales last year, which is not least due to the superiority of our products compared to the market. Producing in Germany may not be the cheapest option, but it pays off in terms of quality and availability. Our BW and BWN series floor scales are manufactured exclusively in Germany. The material thickness is greater than that of most competitors and contributes significantly to the
