Even the best equipment can fail to deliver if it’s installed or used incorrectly. At VProtek Systems, we’ve seen many installations go wrong because of avoidable mistakes. In this article we share five of the most common mistakes when installing weighing equipment and how you can avoid them.

Even quality scales fail if installed incorrectly. Watch out for these common errors:

1. Uneven Surfaces – causes inaccurate readings.
2. No Calibration – skipping routine checks leads to drift.
3. Ignoring Environment – protect from moisture and vibration.
4. Poor Connectivity – plan ERP or data integration early.
5. No User Training – misuse shortens lifespan.

With the right site prep, calibration, and user know how, your weighing equipment can run flawlessly for years. VProtek Systems provides professional installation, calibration, and maintenance across Kerala.
