• Portable livestock scales for mobile, wheeled, aluminum, and relocatable systems
• Small livestock and hog scales for pigs, sheep, goats, calves, alpacas, and similar animals
• Livestock scales with cages and gates for controlled entry, exit, and animal movement
• Livestock weigh bars and scale kits for chutes, platforms, cages, and customer-supplied structures

Choose a scale around the animal and workflow

The right system depends on species, animal size, throughput, and whether animals are weighed individually or in groups. Platform dimensions should support safe footing and controlled movement. Cages, gates, side rails, and low-profile approaches can improve handling, but the appropriate configuration depends on the facility and existing chute or pen layout.

Portable platforms versus weigh-bar systems

Complete livestock platforms provide a ready-to-use weighing surface, while weigh bars can support a customer-supplied deck, chute, crate, or other structure when installed correctly. Portable systems are useful when weighing moves between pens or properties; permanent installations can prioritize traffic flow, cable protection, and repeatable positioning.

Indicators, environment, and capacity

Look for an indicator that is readable in the working environment and supports the functions your process needs, such as hold, accumulation, or data output. Capacity should provide headroom for the animal, platform, and any cage or fixture included in the weighed load.
