In almost every lab, balances are the first precision instruments used in the analysis chain. As such, weighing data is critical.
The number of balances in a lab is relatively high compared to other analytical devices. So standardization of weighing practices is a topic in validated areas.
Even if balances are considered as simple devices, the latest balances are sophisticated with multiple user-definable settings. Keeping control and keeping track of balance settings while still getting the best out of your balances is challenging.
