The Caribbean Community (CARICOM) has a relatively developed system for national legislation for weighing machines. Automatic weighing devices are widely used to determine the quantity of loads in terms of mass. While some applications are specified by national legislation, they are subject to legal metrological control. In CARICOM there is an ever increasing need to have metrological quality confirmed by calibration testing systems against a standard of higher accuracy ensuring consistency in system integrity, for example, where required by ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC 17025 standards
