Company Profile

Hardy Process Solutions, part of the Indicor portfolio, traces its origins to 1918 when Hardy Scales began its operations. Over more than a century, Hardy has evolved into a leading manufacturer of precision weighing equipment for process and packaging, with a focus on delivering products that combine accuracy, reliability, and ease of integration. The company emphasizes a total cost of ownership approach, offering scales and instruments designed and assembled in the USA, and a broad product toolbox that includes ISP features like WAVERSAVER for vibration elimination, C2 electronic calibration, and Integrated Technician. Hardy's product line includes the HI6800 Weight Controller and HIBSX Bench Scales, among other solutions that support process control, batch and filling operations, and packaging. Since 1984, when Hardy Scales was acquired and renamed Hardy Instruments (later Hardy Process Solutions in 2011), the company has maintained a commitment to quality and safety, underpinned by ISO 9001 certifications. A core principle has been to develop interfaces and connectivity for industrial weighing, with options such as EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, DeviceNet, ControlNet, EtherNet, Profibus, Modbus TCP, Analog, and Serial, ensuring compatibility with diverse automation environments. Hardy is positioned as a technology partner within Rockwell Automation’s PartnerNetwork, reinforcing its commitment to delivering integrated, reliable solutions and access to a global network of expertise. The company’s solution set spans process weighing, packaging, and ingredient control, with instruments designed to support accuracy, speed, and repeatability in production lines. Hardy highlights a customer-centric approach, emphasizing reliability in calibration, diagnostics, and maintenance to reduce downtime and ensure process uptime. The organization stresses its dedication to quality and compliance, maintaining partnerships with customers through standards-compliant products and services. The broader Indicor association provides capital, reach, and operational autonomy to respond to customer demand across diversified end markets—from energy and electronics to healthcare—while maintaining a consistent focus on performance and value. Hardy’s products are deployed across industries such as food, chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, feed and grain, mining and metal, pulp and paper, oil and gas, power, and general automation, reflecting its versatility in industrial weighing applications. Looking forward, Hardy continues to advance its technology toolbox and maintains investments in scalable, reliable solutions designed to improve process efficiency, safety, and return on investment for customers, while leveraging Indicor’s resources and network to extend its reach and support global customers with high-performance weighing solutions.
