What is the accuracy of a crane scale?
One of the most important features of crane scales, whether they are crane-mounted or portable, is accuracy. A crane scale can be used to weigh anything from aircraft components to small mail packages. In order to make sure that your crane scale accurately measures the weight of your load, you’ll need to know exactly how accurate they are. While no weight measurement device can ever be 100% accurate, there are some standards that all reputable crane scales must meet in order to be considered accurate enough for use on a construction site or in a factory setting.
