Intelligent Weighing Technology (IWT) is a California scale company based in Camarillo and founded in 2002. IWT designs precision balances, lab balances, washdown balances, checkweighers and hanging scales, with an emphasis on high-resolution weighing at an accessible price.
MNM Scales stocks IWT balances and scales in Cypress, TX and calibrates them in-house before they ship.
IWT balances and scales we carry
- PB precision balances. The IWT PB-1200 reads 1200 g x 0.001 g for formulation and lab work, $999.
- VGW lab balances. The IWT VGW 10001 weighs 10,000 g x 0.1 g for larger samples and containers, $453.
- VGW checkweighing scale. The IWT VGW-20001, 44 lb x 0.002 lb, adds over/under limits for portioning and packing, $568.
- AGS washdown balance. The IWT AGS-1500BL is an NTEP dual-range washdown balance, 600/1500 g, for wet environments, $369.
- PH industrial scale. The IWT PH-32001 covers heavier bench weighing, $1,199.
- AHS hanging scale. The IWT AHS-15 is an NTEP digital hanging scale, 15 lb x 0.01 lb, for produce and bulk foods, $289.

IWT calibration and service
We calibrate IWT balances and scales in our Cypress, TX shop, priced by capacity:
| Scale maximum capacity |
In-house calibration with NIST-tested weights |
NIST calibration with NIST-traceable certificate |
| Up to 2.2 kg (4.85 lb) |
$95 |
$395 |
| 2.2–6.2 kg (4.85–13.7 lb) |
$195 |
$495 |
| 6.2–35 kg (13.7–77 lb) |
$250 |
$595 |
| 35–150 kg (77–330 lb) |
$350 |
$750 |
A scale whose capacity is exactly at a tier limit uses the lower tier.
MNM Scales is TDA licensed with registered technicians for all scale classes, so NTEP models like the AGS-1500BL and AHS-15 can be placed in service for trade use in Texas. See balance calibration in Houston and our NIST calibration certificate service. On-site calibration in the Houston area starts at $295 plus $2 per mile.

IWT brand FAQ
Where is Intelligent Weighing Technology based?
IWT is based in Camarillo, California, and has designed weighing equipment since 2002.
Which IWT balance should I choose for lab work?
For 0.001 g readability up to 1200 g, choose the PB-1200. For larger loads at 0.1 g, the VGW 10001 offers a 10 kg capacity.
Which IWT models are legal for trade?
The models marked NTEP, such as the AGS-1500BL washdown balance and the AHS-15 hanging scale, are approved for trade use once placed in service.
Can IWT balances come with a calibration certificate?
Yes. We can calibrate your IWT balance before it ships and issue a NIST-traceable certificate on request.
