Cardinal Scale acquires Belt-Way Scales

Webb City, Missouri-based Cardinal Scale has acquired Belt-Way Scales, a conveyor belt scale manufacturer based in Rock Falls, Illinois. Belt-Way Scales has a partner network that spans multiple continents and 34 countries and has been manufacturing conveyor belt scales since 1992. The acquisition adds an additional product line to Cardinal Scale’s wide variety of scales and weighing equipment.

“We are extremely excited about our acquisition of Belt-Way Scales since it fills a gap in our product offerings and complements our overall weighing systems manufacturing strategy,” says Matthew Stovern, Cardinal Scale president. “They are known for manufacturing great products and delivering unmatched customer service. They will fit nicely into the Cardinal/DETECTO family and help round out our product lines.”

Belt-Way Scales’ employees, operations and manufacturing will remain in Rock Falls and will continue with its own dedicated engineering, technical service and manufacturing departments, according to a news release from Cardinal Scale.
