Benefits of Cattle Scales
CattleMax is an official reseller for Tru-Test weigh scales and can help you find the right scale system.
Cattle scales can make a tremendous benefit in the measuring of your herd’s performance. By being able to capture weights, you can measure and analyze their gain and therefore many related indicators, such as adjusted weaning and yearling weights, and calculating average daily gain (ADG) and weight per day of age (WDA).
There have also been tremendous enhancements in the usability of scales. In previous years, some of the models offered lots of good features but were very complex to work with, especially if did not use them often. Newer models still offer beneficial processes but are much easier and straight-forward to work with.

Livestock scales, such as the Tru-Test scales, are designed specifically for the rugged conditions and environments of cattle country. The weigh scales are also implementing new technologies, as the leading cattle weigh scales include a memory component. This puts the weight processing on the scales (which they are designed for) and minimizes the need to have a separate computer or device just to collect the weight. This helps have less equipment at the chute or pens, so you can focus on getting your cattle weighed!
