What is an Angle Frame Scale Stand?
The name “Angle Frame Scale Stand” might sound like a mouthful, but its role in the commercial kitchen environment is a crucial one. In fact, the role of an angle frame scale stand is more important than you might think.
In this article, we’ll dive into the uses & benefits of an angle frame scale stand. We’ll also break down IMC’s offering related to the stand. Let’s start.
So, What Does It Do Exactly?
Before we begin, let’s talk briefly about the importance of weighing food/ingredients in the commercial kitchen. Weighing food can provide accuracy when measuring for recipes, maintain constant serving sizes to control costs, or notifies you how much to charge a customer when selling items by weight. There are several types of commercial food scales, each one has a different function.
Although a scale is an important tool to have, they can be somewhat cumbersome & hefty in size. This is where angle frame scale stands enter the scene. In short, angle frame scale stands provide a suitable base for scales to lay atop.
The shape & construction of the angle frame scale stand is designed to accommodate the elongated shape of many scales found in today’s commercial kitchens. Many are outfitted with crossrails for extra rigidity so there is no fear of your scale toppling off & hitting the floor, potentially damaging it.
What’s the Benefit?
No one wants to keep their expensive scale on the floor or have it use up valuable worktable space. An angle frame scale stand is a truly dedicated surface area for your scale.
More often than not, scales must be used in different areas of the commercial kitchen so mobility is absolutely key. This is why many angle frame scale stands come equipped with casters so it may be maneuvered around your facility as needed.
