Fair Season: Trusted Animal Scale Calibration
It's county fair season across Ohio—show rings, blue ribbons, and livestock auctions where months of hard work finally step onto the scale. When a market steer, hog, or lamb sells by the pound, every ounce counts for the exhibitor, the buyer, and the fair. And it isn't just the animals: the feed rations that build that market weight all season long have to be measured just as carefully. Every scale in that chain—from the feed room to the sale ring—is only as trustworthy as its last calibration.
That's where our lab comes in. Our A2LA Scope of Accreditation covers Scales & Balances from 1 mg all the way up to 200,000 lbs—the heavy-capacity range that livestock and platform scales fall into. Calibrations across that range are performed using N.I.S.T.-traceable Class 1 through Class F weights, so the number on the readout holds up.
What accredited animal scale calibration means for you:
- Fair, defensible weights: When money changes hands by the pound, an accredited certificate backs up every ticket.
- Full-capacity coverage: From feed and supplement bench scales, to small-animal scales, all the way up to large livestock and platform scales (to 200,000 lbs).
- N.I.S.T. traceability: Every standard used is traceable to national references.
- On-site field service: Permanently installed livestock and platform scales can be calibrated right where they sit—no downtime, no hauling equipment to the lab.

Meet the Rice Lake 680 Synergy Plus: The Indicator Behind the Weight
Pictured above at the Carroll County Fair livestock auction, the Rice Lake 680 Synergy Plus digital weight indicator is right at home wherever animals—and the feed that raises them—meet the scale. As an authorized Rice Lake dealer, All American Scales & Calibration is proud to offer this rugged, versatile workhorse—built for everything from livestock and platform scales to the floor and bench scales that portion out feed and supplements.
Why the 680 Synergy Plus stands out:
- Bright, easy-to-read display: A clear LED display with a full numeric keypad—simple to read across the barn or sale ring.
- Built to work anywhere: A durable, general-purpose indicator designed to hold up in demanding, real-world environments.
- Connects to everything: Multiple onboard communication options link it to printers, computers, and more—with optional Ethernet and analog output.
- Smart automation built in: Configurable setpoints and an onboard batch engine handle straightforward automation without extra hardware.
- Printed records on demand: Customizable gross, net, and setpoint ticket formats give you a paper trail for every weight.
Pair it with the livestock scale, load bars, or platform of your choice for weighing animals, or a floor or bench scale for measuring feed and supplement rations—and you have a weighing system ready for fair season and year-round work. Best of all, everything we sell we can also calibrate and keep accredited—so your scale is covered from purchase through every calibration to come.
