Hanging Scales
Hanging scales, also sometimes called crane scales, are weight measuring devices designed for objects suspended from a hook or similar attachment. They are a versatile tool used in various industries for applications requiring weight measurement while lifting or hoisting objects.

Hanging scales, also sometimes called crane scales, are weight measuring devices designed for objects suspended from a hook or similar attachment. They are a versatile tool used in various industries for applications requiring weight measurement while lifting or hoisting objects. Here's a breakdown of key features and uses of hanging scales:

Function:

Unlike platform scales where objects are placed on a platform, hanging scales measure weight by suspending the object using a hook or shackle.
The weight is measured by a load cell, which converts the pulling force exerted by the object into a weight reading displayed on a digital screen.
