Silo scales are specialized scales used to measure the weight of products or materials in silos. Silos are large containers used in the food, agricultural, chemical and other related industries to store large quantities of powders, granules or liquids.

Silo scales are installed in silos to enable accurate measurement of the amount of material in the silo. They are equipped with sensors or weights that are placed on the legs of the silo or otherwise attached to the silo. Sensors or weights measure the force created by the mass of material in the silo, and this data is then displayed on the scale’s screen.

These types of scales are important because they allow control of the amount of product in the silo, which is essential for warehouse and production process management. Measurement accuracy can affect the quality and quantity of the product produced, and can also have an impact on the efficiency of production processes and inventory management.
