DIY Portable Arduino Weighing Machine using Load Cell

This weighing machine is perfect for local stores, where they pack items in bulk quantity. Like commercial products, our weight scale will have a zero button that zeroes out the scale. Also, It has an option to set weight for measurement, when the measuring weight reaches the set weight, a buzzer beeps fast and stops when the set weight equals the measuring weight. This way, the user can pack it just by hearing the sound and would not have to look at the display. As this is a very simple project, we will be building this very easily using components like Arduino and strain gauge load cell. 

Watch the below video for the complete working of this Arduino Weighing Machine.

DIY Weight Measurement using Arduino

In this DIY project we have built a weighing machine by interfacing Load Cell and HX711 Weight Sensor with Arduino. We have seen weight machines at many shops, where machine displays the weight just by placing any item on the weighing platform. So here we are building the same Weighing machine by using Arduino and Load cells, having capacity of measuring upto 40kg. This limit can be further increased by using the Load cell of higher capacity.
