Pallet jack with scale VS Low profile floor scale with digital indicator
My in-laws run a mom and pop trucking logistics business, and I've been trying to understand how they can become a bit more efficient (everything is as manual as it can possibly be unfortunately).
Once they finish packaging a pallet, they have to use a forklift to bring it to a scale (low profile floor scale with digital indicator, this one specifically). This process takes them a long time, and I suggested using a pallet jack that comes with a scale instead (which would save them maybe half the time because they don't need to bring the pallets all the way to the scale and then off to the side for loading). They said they've used a pallet jack with a scale in the past, and the weight accuracy is an issue. Is this really true? Or did they perhaps just buy a shoddy/low quality one?
