During piece counting parts can either be counted into a
container or out of a container. To count a greater number of
parts the average weight per part has to be determined with a
small quantity (reference quantity).
The larger the reference quantity, the higher the counting
exactness. High reference must be selected for small parts or
parts with considerably different sizes.
The larger the reference quantity, the more accurate the parts
counting.
The process has four steps:
Tare the weighing container
Determine the reference unit
Original weighing of reference weight
Count the items

set reference quantity requires.

counting mode counting all units on the weighing plate.
