KERN & SOHN GmbH is an independent family-owned company based in Balingen, Germany. The brand dates to 1844 and is described by the manufacturer as Germany’s oldest precision-balance factory. KERN combines laboratory, analytical, bench, platform and floor scales with test weights, moisture analysers, refractometers, microscopes, software and calibration services.
KERN’s history is rooted in German precision-balance manufacturing and the continued development of measurement technology. Today the company operates as a broad-range supplier: balances and weights are complemented by optical instruments, moisture analysers, interfaces, software and calibration services.
LabLog
LabLog selects KERN around the complete operation rather than one readability figure: minimum and maximum load, container, permitted error, cleaning, interfaces, record, weights and metrology. This creates a comparable and serviceable package for a laboratory or food plant in Uzbekistan.
KERN
KERN
From laboratory portions and formulation to production platforms and floor weighing.
01 · Weighing equipment
Modern analytical balances for samples, standards and reagents. ABP and ADT include 0.1 mg-readability versions, while selected ABP models reach 0.01 mg; configuration follows the working range and metrology task.
Best suited for
Analytical and production laboratories in dairy, food and feed industries
02 · Weighing equipment
Series for laboratory preparation, formulation, percentage weighing and portion control. Selection is based on working load, readability, container, adjustment and documentation.
Best suited for
Food laboratories, formulation areas, incoming and finished-product control
03 · Weighing equipment
Compact FOB-S stainless-steel bench scales and IFC platform scales for ingredients, containers, portions and production batches.
Best suited for
Raw-material intake, formulation, filling, portion control and in-process weighing
04 · Weighing equipment
Floor platforms for heavy containers and production loads. BID is available with multiple platform sizes and weighing capacities.
Best suited for
Raw-material warehouses, production logistics, containers and large batches
05 · Weighing equipment
Scales with separate displays for weight, unit price and total price where mass-based price calculation is required.
Best suited for
Retail counters, farm shops and goods sold by weight
KERN
Rapid loss-on-drying control with a programme validated for the specific food matrix.
01 · Moisture analysis
Halogen analysers for rapid loss-on-drying measurement in food and agricultural samples. DBS 60-3 is a routine model with 0.001 g readability; DIS 50-4 adds 0.0001 g readability and real-time drying-curve visualisation.
Best suited for
Dairy plants, grain traders, feed mills and food quality control laboratories
KERN
Control of Brix, refractive index, sample structure, particles and surfaces.
01 · Optics and refractometry
Analogue handheld, digital portable and benchtop refractometers for Brix, refractive index and dedicated food scales.
Best suited for
Juices, syrups, honey, beverages, brines and dissolved-solids control
02 · Optics and refractometry
Stereo microscopes for three-dimensional inspection of surfaces and particles, plus transmitted-light microscopes for prepared laboratory samples.
Best suited for
Visual inspection of raw materials, packaging, particles and laboratory slides
KERN
Test weights and weighing systems for non-standard objects and applications.
01 · Metrology and special solutions
Calibration and test weights in accuracy classes from E1 to M3 per OIML R 111 for periodic verification and calibration of laboratory and industrial scales. Available as individual weights and sets from 1 mg to 50 kg with factory or accredited DAkkS certificates.
Best suited for
Metrology departments, laboratories with verified weighing equipment, dairy and food plants
02 · Metrology and special solutions
Custom platforms and weighing solutions for non-standard geometry, restraints and workflows, including livestock applications.
Best suited for
Farms, intake areas and special stations where a standard platform does not fit
