Abstract :
Personal computer (PC) based weight scale system is a digital measurement system for checking the weight of product in manufacturing process. The system will connect directly to the measurement device and will display the result automatically. The load cell has been applied as a measurement sensor. The interface allows users to interact with the system. A software user interface along with the signal conditioning and data acquisition hardware has been fabricated. The system has been successfully tested to obtain various load measurements. A few suggestions have also been drawn up for the improvement of the system. As the system is easily customizable, its seamless integration is always possible in a highly automated industry. Thus, there is a great potential for this system to be used in numerous industries, where load measurement form is a part of the manufacturing process.
