Mettler Toledo Scales

Compare Mettler Toledo BC-60U shipping scales for packing benches and parcel counters. The flat stainless and ball-top configurations share a 150 lb capacity but handle cartons differently. Check the platter, software connection, displayed increment and current availability before choosing the configuration that fits your shipping station.

Match the BC-60U to your parcels

The BC-60U listings here provide 150 lb capacity with 0.05 lb increments, or 60 kg capacity with 0.02 kg increments. Check the heaviest fully packed carton, including packaging, against the capacity in the unit you use. Readability describes the display step; it is not a guarantee of measurement accuracy.

For light letters or small parcels, decide whether that increment is fine enough for your workflow. Compare other shipping and postal scales if you need a different range. If a parcel extends beyond the platter, check that it can rest securely without touching the bench, wall or other equipment.

Flat stainless platter or ball-top?

The BC-60U flat-platter shipping scale has a stainless weighing surface for placing and removing parcels at a packing bench. Choose it when operators normally lift cartons onto the scale and want a continuous support surface.

The BC-60U ball-top shipping scale is worth comparing when cartons need to slide across the station. Match the carton base and transfer height to the surrounding work surface. The ball-top changes how packages move; it does not increase the 150 lb capacity. BC scales perform static weighing, so let the parcel stop and the reading stabilize before recording its weight.

Check the complete software connection

BC scales support USB and RS-232 communication. USB can carry both power and data, while Ethernet and Bluetooth are optional configurations. Confirm the exact interface, cable, software version and supported scale protocol before ordering. A USB connector alone does not establish compatibility with every shipping application. The manufacturer identifies BC as the successor to its older PS series; verify the setup when replacing a PS60.

Confirm trade use and availability

For commercial weighing, compare NTEP legal-for-trade scales and verify the exact configuration and applicable installation requirements. Approval does not determine carrier charges: package dimensions and the carrier's billing rules also matter.
