Scales
Ishida IG Series Platform Scale
Expand your weighing range with the Ishida IG Series of digital platform scales, also commonly called floor scales. Built for dry goods and larger or heavier loads, the IGX and IGB share the same sturdy platform and indicator design. Choose the bright VFD display on the IGX for AC-powered stations, or the vivid LCD on the IGB when you need battery operation on the floor or in receiving.
Both models keep tare simple, support check weighing with clear high and low prompts, store up to 10 PLUs for tare and limit values, and let the indicator head tilt with turn knobs for a comfortable view. Armagh POS Solutions supplies Ishida platform and floor scales for Canadian grocery, restaurant, food service, and backroom workflows, and can help with Measurement Canada Legal-for-Trade setup when you sell by weight.
Food service and restaurant teams often use this class of scale to check or confirm inventory and receiving, including potatoes, flour, large bags of commodities, and similar goods, so short shipments are caught before they reach the kitchen.
