A system and method are provided which enable rapid static weight measurements of packages within a conveyor system. High through-put rates at, or greater than, in-motion scale systems are achieved at static scale accuracies. The system can be employed in existing conveyor systems to decrease man-hours, increase production, and improve weighing accuracy. The system can accommodate packages which vary in size or in type within a given conveyor run. Fins are affixed to the scale base and positioned to run parallel to and in between conveyor belts. Conveyor belts over the scale base are pivoted to expose the fins upon which the package to be weighed subsequently rests. After weighing, belts are returned to the horizontal position and conveying resumes.
