The Adam Equipment GBC 70a is a heavy-duty bench counting scale designed for inventory control, stocktaking, parts counting, kitting, receiving, packaging, manufacturing, and warehouse operations.
With a 32 kg / 70 lb capacity, 1 g readability, a large 400 x 300 mm / 15.7 x 11.8 in. stainless steel platform, and a pillar-mounted counting indicator, the GBC 70a gives Canadian businesses a practical way to count larger quantities of components without manually counting every piece.
| Application | How the GBC 70a Helps |
| Inventory Control | Count large quantities of identical parts faster than manual piece counting during stocktakes and cycle counts. |
| Warehouse Receiving | Verify incoming quantities of fasteners, components, hardware, and packaged parts against packing slips or purchase orders. |
| Manufacturing | Count components for production runs, assemblies, work orders, and material staging. |
| Kitting | Use check-counting limits to help operators prepare repeatable kits with the required quantity of components. |
| Packaging & Fulfillment | Confirm quantities before sealing boxes, bags, or containers for customer orders. |
| Maintenance Parts Rooms | Track replacement parts, fittings, washers, bolts, electrical components, and other high-volume inventory items. |
For repetitive inventory work, counting by weight can save significant time compared with manually counting hundreds or thousands of identical pieces.
The operator places a known sample quantity on the scale so the GBC 70a can calculate the average weight of one piece. Additional components can then be added and the scale calculates the total number of pieces based on that average unit weight.
Counting performance depends on the consistency of the individual parts being counted. Components with significant variation in individual weight may require a larger reference sample or another counting method.
One of the major advantages of the GBC 70a over a compact counting scale is its 400 x 300 mm / 15.7 x 11.8 in. weighing platform.
This provides room for larger parts bins, boxes, containers, and batches while the elevated pillar-mounted indicator remains visible above the load.
For Canadian warehouses and production facilities looking for a roughly 30 kg counting scale with a column-style display and a larger platform, the GBC 70a is particularly well suited.

The Adam GBC 70a is intended for internal weighing, inventory control, parts counting, production, and warehouse applications. It is not listed as Measurement Canada approved for legal-for-trade transactions. If weight will determine the price charged to a customer, contact Cambridge Environmental Products for a Measurement Canada approved scale.
The GBC 70a is primarily used for parts counting, inventory control, stocktaking, manufacturing, kitting, receiving, packaging, and warehouse quantity verification.
The GBC 70a has a maximum capacity of 32 kg / 70 lb with 1 g / 0.002 lb readability.
The stainless steel platform measures 400 x 300 mm / 15.7 x 11.8 in., providing room for parts bins, boxes, containers, and larger batches.
Yes. The counting indicator is mounted above the platform on a pillar, helping keep the display and keypad visible when larger containers are being weighed.
Yes. Parts counting is one of its primary applications. The scale calculates piece quantity using the average unit weight of a reference sample.
Yes. Check-counting functions can be used to compare a quantity against predefined limits, making the scale useful for repetitive kitting, packaging, and fulfillment workflows.
Yes. The GBC 70a includes an internal rechargeable battery with up to approximately 70 hours of operation, depending on usage conditions.
Yes. RS-232 is standard for connection to compatible computers and printers, and optional USB connectivity is available.
No. The GBC 70a should be used for internal inventory, counting, production, and warehouse applications rather than legal-for-trade transactions.
