1. Who needs to know the minimum weight?
Anyone concerned with quality, and for every application where quality depends on weighing, needs to know the minimum weight.
This is the case in a pharmaceutical weighing room, but also in factories specializing in the formulation of chemical products, for perfumes, cosmetics or dye mixing, and also in food manufacturing processes.
In general, minimum weighing is suitable for all industries where accurate weighing is important and tolerance limits exist.
Knowing the minimum weight ensures compliance with quality requirements and avoids rejected batches as well as costly measurement errors.
