To ensure precision, compliance with UNBS standards, and long-term functionality, businesses must follow a professional floor weighing scales calibration procedure. Trusted providers like Smart Weighing Scales Kampala 

and Eagle Weighing Systems 

offer certified calibration, repair, and maintenance services nationwide.

Why Calibration is Essential

1. Accuracy & Precision: Ensures correct weight readings, preventing losses due to under-delivery or over-delivery.

2. Legal Compliance: UNBS requires regular calibration for scales used in trade and commercial activities.

3. Extended Lifespan: Proper calibration reduces strain on load cells and electronic components.

4. Operational Efficiency: Minimizes downtime caused by misreadings or scale failures.

      • Zero the scale to remove any residual weight influence.

   3. Test Weight Application:

      • Apply certified test weights at multiple points (25%, 50%, 75%, 100% of capacity).

      • Record readings and compare with actual weight values.

   4. Adjustment & Tuning:

      • Adjust digital indicators or mechanical components to correct deviations.

      • Recalibrate load cells if required.

   5. Verification:

      • Repeat test weights to confirm accuracy across the full scale range.

   6. Certification:

      • Issue a UNBS-compliant calibration certificate for trade use.
