The invention relates to a weighing method and arrangement. More specifically, the invention relates to a method and an arrangement for making measurement results reliable in weighing appliances. In addition, the invention relates to a condition monitoring method and arrangement for a weighing apparatus. The weighing method of the invention comprises measuring a kinetic weight by means of weighing sensors (110), measuring the weighing sensor for its vertical component of acceleration and/or vertical angle by means of acceleration sensors (120), delivering the measurement results in a serial communication mode to a data processing unit, and finally, calculating a static weight (140). The present inventive method and arrangement can be used for reducing the error factors caused by acceleration for a measurement which is improved in terms of its reliability and speed. The calibration values for settings of the sensors are stored in a recording instrument preferably included in the same measuring apparatus as the sensors, the discussed measuring apparatus being replaceable without special calibration procedures. The invention is particularly suitable for scales dealing with cranes, loaders and carriers. <IMAGE> |
