Opticon In-Cage Scale

Description

Abattoirs are becoming more demanding when it comes to the weight of the stock that they want to receive, and at what time. Therefore one of the most important reasons for weighing stock is to be able to deliver it at the desired weight, and at a time agreed upon advance. Another important reason for weighing stock is that this enables you to keep track on the stock weight and to compare it with the standard and your expectations.
