UK Weighbridge Calibration Services for Agriculture
Keep your agricultural weighing operation accurate, compliant and performing at its best with professional Parkerfarm weighbridge calibration services. We provide reliable UK-wide support for farms, estates, grain stores, agricultural contractors and rural businesses, helping ensure your weighbridge delivers dependable weight readings, supports accurate records and remains suitable for legal-for-trade use where required.
Weighbridge Calibration Service
Your weighbridge is a critical part of your operation; it acts as your cash register on your farm, and regular calibration is essential to ensure ongoing accuracy, reliability, and compliance. As a guide, calibration checks should be carried out every 12 months. As the owner of a trade weighbridge, you also have a legal responsibility to ensure it remains within the required tolerances.
Professional calibration of your weighbridge or scale is essential to maintaining accurate weighing data and dependable day-to-day performance. Left unchecked, uncalibrated equipment can compromise accuracy, create avoidable operational issues, and lead to costly problems over time.
If you require calibration for your weighing equipment, our team can arrange a site visit at a time that suits your operation.
Weighbridge Calibration
We supply and install both surface-mounted and pit-mounted weighbridges for farms and agricultural businesses across the UK. If your weighbridge has not been serviced within the past 12 months, recalibration is likely to be required to maintain accuracy and compliance.
An inaccurate weighbridge can:
- Leave you exposed to prosecution and financial penalties
- Result in enforcement action or closure by Trading Standards
- Cause avoidable revenue loss through inaccurate measurements
- Damage customer confidence and commercial relationships
- Increase the risk of overloading trailers and lorries
If your weighbridge has not been serviced within the last 12 months, recalibration is also likely to be required.
Contact our team to arrange a convenient site visit.
Pre-harvest Weighbridge Calibration
To help maintain peak performance during your busiest period, we offer farmers a discounted pre-harvest calibration service. This helps ensure your weighbridge delivers accurate, compliant weight readings throughout harvest and beyond. The test is carried out using our specialist calibration vehicle and checks the key operating parameters of your weighing system. On completion, we issue a certificate of compliance for your records.
Please contact us for further details about our pre-harvest calibration offer and wider service support capabilities. We carry out weighbridge calibration in accordance with the UK Weighing Federation’s Calibration Code of Practice, which sets out the legislative requirements for the calibration of legal-for-trade weighbridges and scales.
