Established in 1961, our company led the way from mechanical dials, pivots and bearings into the era of fully electronic weighing. We have a wealth of experience in the design and use of standard and specialty load cells, weighing platforms, and weighing instrumentation. Among our historical firsts are:

• A user-friendly parts counting system in 1974.
• A full line of highly accurate, highly durable, floating platform scales in 1976.
• A self-contained Weigh-Pad that allowed the easy and economical conversion of tanks, hoppers and processing machines into precision weighing devices in 1982.
• A high capacity, low profile, load cell with integral ball-mount loading in 1986.
• A full featured information processing scale with factory programmability in 1990
• An AIAG formatting program package fully compliant to Big-Three labeling requirements in the mid-90’s.
• A full featured, networkable instrument with 5 scale inputs as a standard feature in 2004.

In 1961 we were proud to be pioneers in electronic weighing. Now, as weighing equipment is again transforming, this time into imbedded controllers and information processors, we remain strongly committed to our innovator role.

We are based in a three-plant complex in Southeastern Michigan. We offer our comprehensive product line through a nationwide network of well-trained, highly skilled, independent dealers backed up by expert, factory-based, technical support.

At Sterling, our mission is to provide efficient, reliable, cost effective, weight-based solutions to industry. With an aggressive program of innovative engineering and uncompromising quality assurance, our employees and our dealers put these words into practice every day!
