Lab Instruments and Balances for Industrial QC Labs

An industrial QC lab is the last check before a customer finds the problem. Incoming material is sampled at the gate, work in progress is tested on the shift, and finished goods are checked against the specification before dispatch. The lab doesn’t need the most exotic instruments; it needs reliable ones that give the same answer on every shift.

Hindustan Scale Company (HSCo), Mumbai, has supplied weighing and laboratory equipment since 1955. For QC labs in manufacturing plants we supply balances and test weights, moisture analysers, tensile testing machines, thickness gauges, viscometers, pH meters, spectrophotometers, drying ovens and muffle furnaces, and custom scales for special checks. Tell us what your specification says and we’ll name the instruments.

What an industrial QC lab checks, and with what

• Incoming material – balances, moisture analysers and thickness gauges on samples from each lot.
• Mechanical properties – tensile testing machines for strength and elongation.
• Physical and chemical checks – viscometers, pH meters, spectrophotometers and melting point apparatus.
• Drying and ash – drying ovens and muffle furnaces.
• Calibration – M1, M2 and F2 test weights for all the plant’s scales and balances.
