  • Using a weighing sensor and 3D printing to create a mini scale.



Supplies

  • Platform scale program and library files.


Step 1: 3D Design

  • Design the size of the housing according to the size of the weighing sensor.
  • It's printed on a 3D printer


Step 2: Assemble

  • Install the printed module and sensor


Step 3: Debugging

Download the program to the arduino,

Start the program and put a 100-gram weight on it to see if it's accurate?

Step 4: Modifying Library Files

  • Open the hx711.cpp file
  • Pull to the last "float Hx711::getGram()" position

Modify the parameters in the red circle, adjust them appropriately, and then download and run the program to see if it is accurate.

  • Debug several times until it is accurate
