Abstract
Weighing is a relatively slow process and often requires a considerable tim e within investigation procedures or production processes. Measures for the speeding-up of weighing are discussed, two cases being considered: 1. If slow reactions are observed, the equilibrium value can be extrapolate d from the mass change curve. 2. If the reaction is faster than the balance response, the damping device can be manipulated and/or the equilibrium value can be calculated from the oscillating balance readings.
