Sterling Scale was established in 1961 and started manufacturing scales in 1968. We manufacture a complete line of electronic scales from truck scales to scales weighing fractions of a gram. Our Engineering Department is available for custom design and unusual scale applications.

Sterling designs scales which are easy to use, rugged and reliable to satisfy the hi-tech industrial requirements required by today's customers. All are "Made in America".

Some of Sterling's "Firsts" in "Innovation of Electronic Weighing":

• Development of a "User Friendly" parts counting and weighing console system - 1974.
• Design of "Ball Mounted" floating platform scales on strain gauge load cells to reduce damage from "Impact Loading" and to provide accurate weighing on "Out of Level" floors - 1976.
• Introduction of "Self-Contained Weigh Pads" which are used to convert wrapping machines, conveyors, hoppers, etc. into weighing devices without using conventional bulky platforms - 1982
• Strain gauge load cells from 5K to 25K capacity, with built-in ball mount assembly to provide very low profile load cells to replace canister load cells. Canisters are more subject to severe damage from angular loading - 1986.
• Development of platform vehicle scale system used in auto industry for very high-resolution weighing - 1987.
• Development of parts counting system for special bar code 39 label printing at factory receiving and shipping areas with special software for all automotive specifications in U.S.A. and Canada. No dedicated P/C required - 1987.
