Pharmaceutical Balances
Inscale's custom selection of top-quality laboratory balances and weighing scales for the pharmaceutical industry.
We stock a wide variety of great value weighing scales and balances for pharmacies manufactured by Adam Equipment, Kern and A&D for weighing medicines, chemicals and powders. The pharmaceutical balances we sell suit a variety of price ranges and can be used through multiple stages in the pharmaceutical manufacturing process, from research and analysis to production and distribution.Most high-end weighing balances come with a host of additional weighing modes, such as percentage weighing, dynamic chemical weighing, checkweighing and parts counting that can streamline checking and quality control processes; perfect for pharmaceutical production facilities that require speed and infallible levels of precision.
Trade approved balances with the necessary Class approvals are required when producing pharmaceuticals for selling as medicines or prescriptions over the counter; similarly, chemists and pharmacies also require balances with approvals to ensure that all medicines sold to the customer meet the weight amount stated on the prescription labels or product packaging.

Q: What is the difference between micro, semi-micro, analytical and precision balances?
A: The fundamental difference that sets micro, semi-micro, analytical and precision balances apart is the balance specifications, principally the readability of the product. Readability refers to the value of the smallest possible reading that the balance can give.
- Microbalance: For the most precise of measurements, a microbalance is necessary. These products read to 6 decimal places (or 0.000001th of a gram) and can be used to weigh the lightest of items such as a single hair. An example is the A&D BM Microbalance.
- Semi-microbalances: Similarly to the microbalance, the semi-micro can be used to find very precise measurements. The difference is that these products only go up to 5 decimal places (or 0.00001th of a gram). An example of this is the Equinox Semi-Micro Balance.
- Analytical balances: An analytical balance reads up to 4 decimal places (0.0001th of a gram). An example of this product would be the Nimbus Analytical Balance.
- Precision balances: A precision balance refers to any product that reads either 3, 2 or 1 decimal place (0.001g, 0.01g & 0.1g respectively. They also tend to have a higher capacity which enables them to be used in different environments than the previous balances. Some common precision balance uses would include weighing out precious metals and stones or test samples in the pharmaceutical industry. An example of this product would be the Equinox Precision Balance.
