EnglishWhat is Micro Weighing Solutions (mws.ltd.uk)?
Updated
Micro Weighing Solutions (MWS) is a UK industrial scale manufacturer and supplier trading at mws.ltd.uk. It designs and builds industrial scales and bespoke weighing systems, and backs them with an in-house calibration and service team covering the UK. The site is aimed at buyers who need weighing equipment for industrial, laboratory, or hazardous-area use, and who want manufacturing, calibration, and servicing from one supplier rather than a reseller.
What MWS supplies
The product catalogue is broad and organised by equipment type rather than by industry:
| Category | Examples listed on the site |
|---|---|
| Industrial scales | Floor scales, bench scales, pallet scales, conveyor belt weighing, overhead track scales, mobile/portable scales, bespoke scales |
| Checkweighing and inspection | Check weighers, automatic checkweigher, combination checkweigher, metal detector, X-ray contamination detector, weigh price labelling |
| Laboratory balances | Analytical, semi-micro, micro, and precision balances, plus moisture analysers |
| Terminals and indicators | ATEX weight indicators, basic and check weighing terminals, labelling terminals, process control terminals, PLC interfaces, touchscreen and waterproof terminals, weighbridge terminals, weight repeaters |
| Load cells and components | Compression, high resolution, shear beam, single point, silo/vessel, and tension load cells; junction boxes, kits, mounts, and ATEX load cell barriers |
| Vehicle weighing | Dynamic axle weighing system, portable vehicle weigh pads, mobile weighbridge, weighbridges, UKAS weigh pad hire |
Applications covered include batch weighing, barcode/pack labelling, check weighing and portion control, parts counting, process weighing software, recipe formulation, average weighing, vehicle weighing software, PLU labelling, and TraceWaste.
Manufacturing, calibration, and service
Two things distinguish MWS from a pure distributor:
- UK manufacturing. The site states that British-made industrial scales carry a lifetime guarantee, and that MWS designs and manufactures bespoke solutions for clients worldwide.
- Traceable calibration and onsite service. A dedicated calibration and service team provides traceable calibration and onsite asset calibration across the UK, so existing equipment can be maintained alongside new purchases.
If your requirement is a one-off standard scale, this matters less. If you run a fleet of scales that need periodic calibration records, or you need a non-standard weighing setup built to fit a process, the manufacturer-plus-service combination is the relevant part.
ATEX weighing for hazardous environments
MWS positions itself as a specialist in ATEX-certified weighing, serving potentially explosive atmospheres in the UK and internationally. The ATEX range covers bench scales, floor scales, mobile scales, pallet scales, and components, engineered for Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 21, and Zone 22 classifications. The site states that products are tested and certified for compliance with ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU.
That certification scope is the main reason to check MWS specifically: if your weighing point sits in a zoned area, you need equipment certified for that zone, and the ATEX category pages let you filter by equipment type rather than by general industrial scale listings.
Practical notes before you enquire
- Pricing is not published. The site lists Stripe among its payment platforms, but no prices appear on the pages reviewed, so treat cost as a quote-based conversation.
- Some areas require a client login. A client login is present in the navigation, which suggests account holders get access to something beyond the public pages — useful if you already have a service contract.
- Contact route. The site lists a free phone number (0845 340 4047) as the primary contact channel.
- Start from the application, not the product. Because the range spans bench scales to weighbridges, the fastest path is to identify your application (check weighing, recipe formulation, vehicle weighing, and so on) and then look at the equipment listed under it.
