DURAWEIGH® WASHDOWN FLOOR SCALES

INTRODUCED BY GAINCO

 

Gainesville, Ga., February 22, 2006 — Gainco, Inc. introduces the new 20” x 20” model of its rugged DuraWeigh® Heavy-Duty Floor Scales.  The ideal weighing solution for meat, poultry and other harsh food processing environments, DuraWeigh’s innovative scale design improves calibration accuracy, operating performance and equipment durability – while at the same time reducing equipment downtime and operating costs as well as simplifying sanitation and maintenance operations.  The 20” x 20” model can be used for stationary weighing, or for easy portability when equipped with heavy-duty easy-glide casters plus a specially designed push handlebar frame.

The ingenious design of DuraWeigh® heavy-duty scales incorporates a stout stainless steel base that prevents flexing, thereby improving both weighing accuracy and equipment durability.  The scale’s open-frame design allows for deep-cleaning while also preventing any bacteria-prone water from pooling.   

DuraWeigh® heavy-duty scales include Gainco’s Infiniti weight indicator – a proprietary design which features an impressive IP69K rating to deliver optimal protection against pressure-washing and moist environments.  The Infiniti weight indicator is engineered to thrive in the extremes of the processing environment, meaning that cold work environments, hot chemical washdowns and high pressure washing do not affect its performance.  With Infiniti, there’s no longer any need to double-box, poly-bag or remove weight indicators or scales from the processing floor during washdown cycles.

Built to withstand the everyday rigors of plant use and misuse, DuraWeigh® heavy-duty scales are perfectly suited for general weighing, parts counting, portion control and manual batching.  Each scale’s frame features built-in overload stops that dramatically reduce load-cell failure.  Ultra-reliable accuracy plus the ability to easily “zero” the scale help minimize under-weighing and product giveaway.

DuraWeigh® heavy-duty bench and floor scales from Gainco carry a two-year limited warranty.  Plus, through Gainco’s industry-leading Blue Ribbon Service program, customers can receive expert 24-hour, 7-day service on all DuraWeigh® scales plus other makes and models of weighing equipment, distribution systems, software and wireless communications support.  Blue Ribbon Service’s factory-trained technicians are certified in most states, and all service work is guaranteed.

DuraWeigh® heavy-duty scales are manufactured by Gainco, Inc., a subsidiary of Bettcher Industries, Inc. and a leading U.S. supplier of scale systems for the meat, poultry, seafood and other food processing segments.  Gainco offers design engineering, equipment manufacturing, systems delivery and comprehensive service contracts to meat processing facilities nationwide, as well as outside the United States.  For more information, contact Russ Williams at (770) 534-0703 or visit www.gainco.com.
