Microsite Features Weighing Technologies
December 1, 2013
Mettler Toledo has launched a dedicated microsite designed to make weighing expertise easily accessible to everyone. The microsite is based on Mettler Toledo's Global Weighing Standard, GWP, and provides information on topics concerning weighing, such as correct weighing procedures, weighing risk and industry-relevant standards such as ISO, GMP/GLP, USP and HACCP. According to the company, users can stay up-to-date on weighing topics with industry-specific news, customer cases and white papers, as well as watch on-demand webinars, download relevant information and try out the free weighing risk assessment tool. GWP was introduced in 2007 as a scientific approach to safe selection, calibration and operation of weighing equipment.
The microsite provides weighing knowledge relevant to 13 different market segments (e.g. food, pharmaceutical and chemical) and addresses weighing needs and difficulties specific to those industries. Balance and scale users can test their own weighing risk with the microsite's online tool, Risk Check, which also provides a personalized weighing risk profile for download. Following the Risk Check, users have the option of performing a live repeatability test on their balance and can download the test report. The microsite provides information across the five key stages of the weighing instrument lifecycle: evaluation, selection, installation, calibration and routine operation.
Users can request a free GWP recommendation, from which an official document is provided, detailing which scale best suits the user's individual weighing application. The recommendation takes into account the individual weighing requirements such as sample size and process tolerances.
