Skin Cancer Awareness Month

May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month, and it comes not a moment too soon. A recent study confirmed that nonmelanoma skin cancer is truly an epidemic in the US, with an estimated 350 percent increase in the number of skin cancers  over the past decade and a half. 

The latest figures confirm that skin cancer, the world’s most common cancer, is truly an epidemic. There are more new cases annually than the combined incidence of cancers of the breast, prostate, lung, and colon. While skin cancer, particularly nonmelanoma skin cancer, is usually very treatable when caught early, it should not be taken lightly. Skin cancers have a high rate of recurrence, and anyone who has had one runs an increased risk of developing another skin cancer, including melanoma. Additionally, people who have had nonmelanoma skin cancer have twice the risk of developing other malignancies, such as lung, colon, and breast cancers. Melanoma, the deadliest skin cancer, may metastasize (spread) to distant tissues or organs, and can be life-threatening, if not detected and treated quickly.

 

How many industrial floor scales have a 2 year warranty

How many 4x4 and 5x5 floor scales on the market today come with a manufacturer backed 2 year warranty?  The answer is, not very many. One scale that does is the CAS Hercules HFS industrial floor scale.  The best part, the manufacturer, CAS Corporation, is located in New Jersey and is just a phone call away. This economical HFS platform scale is available in your choice of either a 5000 lb capacity with one pound increments or 10,000 pound capacity with two pound graduations. The dimensions are 48" x 48" x 3.5" or 60" x 60" x 3.5" and the platform features an anti-skid diamond plate top. Can be configured with several different choices of digital indicators.

CAS took a page from modern technology in developing the HFS-405. Today’s modern planes, boats, cars and trucks are all being made lighter to conserve resources. Yet the vehicles of today are far superior in performance to the same types made just ten years ago. How is that? It’s simple engineering. Modern engineers have perfected the use of structural tubular design; steel beams created to weigh less and engineered with structural integrity superior to conventional steel beams.  You can order a CAS Hercules floor scale system from Central Carolina Scale by calling them at (919) 776-7737.

Only One Place to Contact When It Comes to Truck Scales

When you need accurate truck weights and unsurpassed durability, it only makes sense to call Central Carolina Scale, Inc. Truck scales are available in either full-electronic or electromechanical types with either concrete or steel platforms, above ground or pit.

Low profile units offer simple installation with minimal foundation requirements while pit type installations are often the best choice for use in severe climates or when grain is to be discharged out of the truck onto a conveyor mounted beneath the scale platform. Multiple platform units are used to simultaneously measure the truck's axle weights while obtaining its total weight as well. Service, calibration & maintenance agreements for local customers are also available.

Digi Summit Floor Scales Are A Proven Performer

Trying to decide what floor scale to buy in 2010 is very difficult.  Each website you visit has a different "outstanding" scale.  Prices vary from around $600 with freight included to over $1800 plus freight.  Ultimately, the consumer has to make the choice that is best for them.  Many of the "low cost" floor scales offered today in the US are imported and have very little track record of performance.  However, if you are looking for a scale that isn't dirt cheap and at the same time isn't the top of the line model either, then we recommend taking a look at the Digi Summit 4x4 floor scale.  Overall, we think it is a great value and it is available for purchase from the floor scale experts at Central Carolina Scale.

An Economical Choice Offering Exceptional Performance
The Digi Summit® 3000 Series provides exceptional performance in light industrial and legal-for-trade applications. While value-priced, the Summit 3000 also employs a rugged design to deliver efficient installation and operation.

Top Notch Features
The convenient top-access junction box is housed in a durable ABS enclosure and is protected from fork trucks and other industrial abuse by the Summit 3000’s diamond treadplate steel deck. The scale has fully adjustable, rigid polyurethane rubber feet to accommodate weighing on uneven surfaces.

Industrial Tough
The load cell cable exits the weldment towards the interior of the scale, allowing you the flexibility to route it out any side of the scale to the digital weight indicator. This also means the indicator load cell cable is at floor level—reducing the potential for damage.

Standard System includes:
(1) 120 Digital Readout
(1) Digi Summit 3000 Series Low Profile 4x4 Floor Scale
(1) Factory Calibration 5000 x 1 lb or 10,000 x 2 lb
