Shimadzu Micro Balance

• Characteristics of Shimadzu Micro Balances:
  High Precision: Micro balances are capable of measuring masses with extremely high precision, often to the sub-milligram level (e.g., 0.0001 milligrams or better). This level of accuracy is crucial in industries where precise measurement of small quantities is critical.
  Capacity: While they excel in precision, micro balances typically have a lower capacity compared to analytical or semi micro balances. They are designed to handle very small sample sizes and are optimized for measuring minute quantities accurately.
  Environmental Stability: Like semi micro balances, micro balances often feature draft shields or enclosures to protect against air currents and vibrations. They may also include temperature compensation features to ensure consistent measurements in varying environmental conditions.
• Applications in Industrial Environments:
  Research and Development: Used extensively in industrial research labs for precise measurement of substances and materials in studies and experiments.
  Quality Control: Ensures consistency and accuracy in manufacturing processes by measuring precise amounts of raw materials and products.
  Metrology and Standards: Used in calibration labs and metrology centers to calibrate other instruments and ensure traceability of measurements.
  Pharmaceuticals and Chemicals: Critical for measuring active ingredients, formulations, and ensuring compliance with regulatory standards.
  Advanced Features: Micro balances may include advanced features such as automatic calibration, data logging capabilities, touchscreen interfaces, and connectivity options for integration with laboratory information management systems (LIMS).
  Compliance and Standards: They are calibrated and certified to meet industry standards (e.g., ISO, ASTM) and regulatory requirements to ensure accuracy, reliability, and traceability of measurements.
