What kind of maintenance do platform scales require?

Regular calibration is essential to maintain accuracy. Cleaning the platform and checking for any physical damage are also recommended.

Can these scales be integrated with other systems?

Many Mettler-Toledo scales offer data output options, commonly RS232, which can facilitate integration with PCs or other data logging systems. Buyers should check specific unit connectivity.
