METTLER TOLEDO Weigh Module Wins Prestigious Design Award


Greifensee, Switzerland — Japan Institute of Design Promotion (JDP) recently awarded METTLER TOLEDO the Good Design Award for its ultra-compact WMC high-precision weigh module. The product is now designated the award's 'G Mark label' recognized globally as a symbol of innovative design.



The Good Design Awards are "a system that aims to channel the eminent powers of distinctive designs to build prosperous lives and encourage sound industrial development," according to JPD. A jury of about 60 design experts fielded more than 3,000 submissions from more than 1,000 companies globally in this year's competition.



The WMC is an ultra-compact electronic balance. It can be integrated in a small space for high-precision weighing with an accuracy of 10 micrograms. It can also easily be arranged to arrays with multiple units for parallel weighing to increase throughput.



According to the evaluators, its simple design, with a rectangular column housing in stainless steel, conveys a sense of high precision. This design could provide inspiration for machine designers looking to create new solutions for automated processes in the future.
