A&D HV-C/P Platform Scales Improve Productivity and Profitability in Cannabis Production and Industrial Manufacturing

SAN JOSE, Calif., March 01, 2018 -- For factory owners and operators, A&D Weighing announced today the availability of its HV-C/P and HW-C/P multi-functional platform scales. The HV-C is the direct successor to the A&D HV-GL Series which has been widely accepted as the trade-legal platform scale for the cannabis industry. The re-designed and upgraded series provide a number of new features that maximize customer profitability by enhancing productivity inside manufacturing facilities, transportation and processing. 

For factory owners and operators, A&D Weighing announced today the availability of its HV-C/P and HW-C/P multi-functional platform scales, which has been widely accepted as the trade-legal platform scale for the cannabis industry.

“At A&D, we are committed to providing our customers with the most advanced innovative features through new product development, and in 2018 alone, we will be releasing 15 new weighing product lines,” said Terry Duesterhoeft, President and CEO of A&D – Americas. “Our goal is to continually increase efficiency for the end-user and more effectively boost ROI. To that end, this new series has been redesigned to minimize loss and maximize throughput, by allowing business operators to more efficiently gather, document and store weight information.”

“We have seen the sales of our HV-GL series boom along with the rapidly growing cannabis industry in North America over the past few years,” said Yingying Huang, Director of Product Management of A&D Weighing. “This scale is especially useful for weighing raw materials from growers, and along the production chain to finished goods. The new HV-C/P series includes new features like the comparator lights, bright LCD display, alphanumeric keypad and a built-in printer that brings convenience and efficiency to a new level.”

The HV-C/P Series of trade-legal scales with NTEP certification and its high-resolution sibling HW-C/P Series scales offer the following new features:

• Fast stabilization: To streamline operations, the measured value can stabilize in as quickly as one second.
   
• Comparator lights: To make packing and filling more accurate and efficient, the HV/W-C/CP series is equipped with bright, multi-colored 5-step LED which indicate whether the measured weight is within designated limits. Comparisons can be made in either three levels, five levels, or even seven levels for grading applications.
   
• Auto-tare Function: The HV/W-C and HV/W-CP series can automatically perform tare when the weight reaches the set target range, saving the operator from the hassle of pressing the TARE key each time for consecutive checkweighings, such as when filling multiple cups on the weighing pan with the same target quantity. In addition, negative values can also be set as upper and lower limits of the comparator. When combined with the auto-tare function, he result is "take-away" checkweighing that measures by repeatedly taking the target quantity out of a container without having to press any keys.

The redesigned HV/W-C and HV/W-CP series is available online.
