What are the benefits of pallet truck scales?

With pallet truck scales you can move pallets as well as weigh them. Pallet truck scales are often used to weigh goods before they are loaded onto vehicles. Instead of taking palletised goods to a scale to be weighed before loading onto a vehicle - usually a requirement - the pallet can be weighed by the pallet truck. The Accumulation function means the weight of several pallets can be totalised, giving you a total weight for the goods being added to the vehicle. Compared to alternatives, pallet truck scales ultimately save time in despatch processes.
