Weighing guide
27 May 2018
To help manufacturers improve efficiency without losing quality, METTLER TOLEDO has a new practical weighing guide entitled “Efficient Workflows in the Chemical Industry.” The guide addresses how the adoption of lean processes combined with smart automation can accelerate many common laboratory procedures.
Weighing is the first step in virtually any analysis. Therefore, optimising the process, for example, weighing directly into tare containers, has a positive impact for subsequent steps. Likewise, errors or unmet standards that remain unaddressed at this stage can multiply down the line, causing rework, costly lost batches, or consumer liability.
The guide explores six common lab workflows in the chemical-industry where weighing plays an integral role: Formulation; Moisture Content, Loss on Drying (LoD), Loss on Ignition (LoI); Particle Size analysis and distribution; Density determination of solids and porous or viscous materials; Sample preparation for titration and
Preparation of reference substances for HPLC or GC analysis.
