Electronic Weighing Scale Market Trends




  • Rising demand for automated and digital weighing scales will drive market growth.




The market CAGR for electronic weighing scales is projected to rise due to the rising demand for automated and digital scales. There is a huge demand for replacing outdated weighing machines with cutting-edge, innovative goods because conventional weighing machines cannot measure with such accuracy up to decimals. With the development of digital weighing devices, even the weights can be precise to a few decimal places, and the automation process is simplified. Regardless of the size of the activity, automated weighing machines can be employed in small- or large-scale companies. By boosting production, decreasing product loss, precisely measuring ingredients, and optimising product amounts, the adoption of such automated systems results in significant profitability. All these advantages attract manufacturers to switch to automated weighing systems.


Moreover, electronic weighing devices let retail stores in the market determine a product's weight. The electronic weighing system is a crucial piece of equipment in retail stores thanks to the basic load cell, suitable signal conditioners, and output recorders/indicators. Electronic weighing machines are in demand in retail establishments because to their high reliability, precision, durability, portability, and ease of calibration qualities.Therefore, throughout the upcoming years, the expansion of the electronic weighing machines market will be driven by the presence of big retail establishments in both developed and developing nations.


For instance, the 2020 Annual Retail Trade Survey from the US Census Bureau shows that US retail sales climbed 3.1% from $5,402.3 billion in 2019 to $5,570.4 billion in 2020. As a result, the market for electronic weighing machines is expanding due to the sharp increase in retail sales.

Fairbanks, Morse, and Company was a late-nineteenth-century American manufacturing firm. Originally a manufacturer of weighing scales, it gradually expanded into pumps, engines, windmills, coffee grinders, radios, farm tractors, feed mills, locomotives, and industrial supplies before being purchased by Penn Texas in 1958. In 1823, inventor Thaddeus Fairbanks established an ironworks in St. Johnsbury, Vermont, to manufacture two of his patented inventions: a cast iron plough and a heating stove. He founded a hemp dressing business in 1829, for which he developed the machinery. In september 2019, Fairbanks scales introduced a new roller conveyor scale in October. This gadget can record the weights of products as they move down a conveyor scale. Fairbanks scales developed a new series called WF forklift scale in December with a distinctive design to meet the needs of the mobile weighing sector. This scale can transform forklifts into precision scales in minutes.
