The Wincom Triple Beam Balance is a highly durable, classic mechanical scale engineered to provide accurate mass measurements through a traditional three-beam sliding rider system. Recognized for its robustness and simplicity, this balance operates entirely on mechanical principles without requiring any electricity or batteries. It is the gold standard for educational science classrooms, chemistry laboratories, field testing stations, and industrial workshops where a reliable, low-maintenance, and power-free weighing solution is essential.

Technical Specifications

• Weighing Capacity (Standard): 610 grams (expandable up to 2,610 grams using standard attachment weights)

• Readability / Resolution: 0.1 grams

• Front Beam Graduation: 10 grams (divided into 0.1-gram increments)

• Middle Beam Graduation: 500 grams (divided into 100-gram increments)

• Rear Beam Graduation: 100 grams (divided into 10-gram increments)

• Weighing Pan Material: High-grade, rust-proof stainless steel (removable or fixed options)

• Base Structure: Heavy-duty die-cast aluminum or cast iron housing with a chemical-resistant finish

Key Features

• Zero-Power Mechanical Design: Requires no batteries, electrical adapters, or wall sockets, ensuring optimal performance anywhere, including remote field sites and outdoor research locations.

• Three-Beam Sliding System: Features three tiered notched beams with smoothly gliding metal poise weights that slide and sit securely into exact notches for highly reproducible readings.

• Integrated Magnetic Damping: Built with a magnetic damping system that quickly stops the pointer oscillation, allowing operators to read the final measurement weight within seconds.

• Fine Zero-Adjust Spring Nut: Equipped with an easy-to-turn zero-adjust knob at the end of the beam, making it simple to calibrate the balance back to zero before each testing cycle.

• Rugged Agate Bearings: Designed with precision-ground steel knife edges and self-aligning agate bearings to minimize frictional wear, ensuring a lifetime of smooth and consistent performance.

Primary Applications

• Science Classrooms and Academic Labs: An essential teaching tool for high schools and universities to train students on the physics of mass determination, balancing mechanics, and lab practices.

• Field Research and Geology: Weighing rock crystals, soil core samples, and agricultural seeds directly at remote testing sites away from power grids.

• General Chemical Compounding: Measuring dry chemical powders, raw pigments, and compounding ingredients for standard laboratory formulations.

• Industrial Tool and Hardware Sorting: Quick inventory counts, weight checks of small metal components, and portioning industrial parts in manufacturing shops.
