The National Measurement Institute (NMI) is seeking feedback from stakeholders on a proposal to adopt OIML R 50 as Australia’s pattern approval standard for belt weighers. The OIML R 50:2014, ‘Continuous totalising automatic weighing instruments (belt weighers)’, is the latest version of this international standard.
The request for feedback closes 8 November 2019.
Visit our Consultation Hub to provide feedback
