A&D HC-i Industrial Parts Counting Scales
A&D HC-i Industrial Counting Scales deliver fast, accurate parts counting for hardware stores, warehouses, electronics assembly, parts packaging and inventory control. Available in 3kg, 6kg, 15kg and 30kg capacities, they combine robust industrial construction with advanced counting performance.
With an internal counting resolution of up to 1:750,000, the HC-i can detect very small piece weights. Automatic sample size verification determines the optimum sample quantity required for accurate counting, helping improve results from the outset.
A clear three-panel LCD displays weight, piece weight and total count simultaneously. The display can be detached and positioned separately for easier viewing in confined spaces or when weighing large boxes that overhang the weight pan and obstruct the display.

A&D HC-i Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is the A&D HC-i?
The A&D HC-i has an internal counting resolution of up to 1:750,000. Counting accuracy depends on the consistency of individual piece weights, so a larger sample may improve results when individual items vary slightly in weight.
What is the minimum piece weight the A&D HC-i can count?
Minimum piece weight is dependent upon scale capacity, ranging from 0.005g on the HC-3Ki to 0.05g on the HC-30Ki.
How do I select the right capacity counting scale?
Choose a capacity comfortably above the heaviest batch you expect to count, then check the Minimum Piece Weight in the model table to ensure the individual pieces are suitable for that model.
Is the A&D HC-i NMI Approved and legal for trade use?
No, the A&D HC-i range is not sold or verified as an NMI-approved legal-for-trade scale. If you need an NMI Approved verified scale, please refer to our range of verified scales.
