Analytical Balances
Analytical balances and micro analytical balances are accurate and precise instruments used to measure masses to a high precision. They require a draft-free location on a solid bench that is free of vibrations. Some modern digital weighing scales have built-in calibration masses and temperature monitoring to maintain accuracy.
Ideal for use within the food industry, analytical balances can be used for percent weighing and portion control weighing as well as additional precision features such as density determination. Analytical balances are particularly useful for food testing experiments in laboratory environments.
Analytical balances are often known for their accuracy and expense, but here you will find a balance to suit all budgets. We also stock Anti-vibration tables to be used alongside our scales and balances, providing stability to the balance to ensure the most accurate measurements possible.

Q: Why do I need an analytical balance when working in the food industry?
A: There are many uses of analytical balances within the food industry that range from portion control to percent weighing. Normally, other digital weighing balances such as the compact balance or pocket scale are preferred due to there convenience and portable features. Analytical balances however allow greater precision compared to portable scale models when measuring portion size and percent weighing. This may be required within food testing laboratories and other facilities alongside other types of weighing scale such as moisture analysers.
