FAQ

Q: How long has MSW been in Business
A: We became a registered company during October 2007.

Q: Where are you based? Where do you work?
A: We are based in Nottinghamshire, England. Our engineers have worked throughout Europe, America and Asia.

Q: Being a relatively small company, how are you able to offer the support we require?
A: MSW work closely with a number of well-known small companies. In this way we are able to offer support ourselves or through our colleges. Most support is given over the phone when possible, however an engineer can usually visit site the same day if required depending on location. All our weighing system now utilise a remote connection. We are able to remotely view and update our systems via a VPN connection. This greatly reduces your downtime and cost especially during the initial few weeks of a system upgrade.

Q: What experience do you have?
A: We have a combined experience in excess of 40 years. We pride ourselves in our knowledge of weighing systems, material handling solutions and production control. Our company has achieved the Mitsubishi System Integrator Status.

Q: What is your speciality?
A: We specialise in PLC, PC programming and small to large project design, installation and commissioning. We have been in the business for many years we have a wealth of contacts who assist us in all areas of material handling, weighing and manufacturing. Our engineers can connect to most types of PLC, HMI or PC’s to diagnose unknown errors or plant difficulties.

Q: I want my weighers calibrated. How should I go about this?
A: We would normally ask for some basic information on the weigher type, amplifier and load cells. If this is not available we would usually visit you to identify your equipment and provide a budget calibration quotation. We can of course visit you with a full set of weights and simply carry out a check calibration if required.

Q: How accurate are your calibrations?
A: Calibration accuracy depends on your weigher specifications. Our high performance weigh systems are accurate to less than 1 gram.
