For the quality preparation of mixtures containing loose materials, precise dosing of ingredients is necessary. At the same time, a wheelbarrow is often used to transport such raw materials. In this diploma thesis, we designed and manufactured a wheelbarrow with a weight scale, which has a measuring range from 0 to 100 kg. We calibrated the wheelbarrow following the EURAMET guide and determined the repeatability, nonlinearity, hysteresis and eccentricity of the scale. The achievable expanded measurement uncertainty of the wheelbarrow with a weight scale is 0.70% full scale. By reviewing the market, we found that production only makes sense in smaller quantities.
