The present invention concerns a method and an apparatus for gravimetric metering of a powdery bulk material, said system comprising a storage container accommodating the bulk material, a feeding pipe for feeding bulk material from the storage container to a dosing container, a dosing discharge device for continuously discharging bulk material from the dosing container to a discharge pipe and on to a discharge line, wherein said dosing container is mounted on at least one weighing cell, and wherein the feeding pipe is provided with a first flexible tube member and the discharge pipe is provided with a second flexible tube member, and wherein the first flexible tube member comprises a first compensator and a second compensator with a tubular member there between.

A method of measuring body weight includes receiving a first weight of a user wearing at least one personal item, reading a tag information for indicating a weight corresponding to the at least one personal item, and comparing a difference between the first weight and the weight corresponding to the at least one personal item to compute a second weight, wherein the second weight is a body weight of the user.

A machine vision camera combined to one of the first storage carrier and the second storage carrier for detecting an offloading event. A sensor for measuring the weight of the material offloaded from the first storage carrier to the second storage carrier. A scale controller in communication with the machine vision camera and the sensor. The scale controller enters a tear mode in response to the beginning of offloading event and records and stores the weight of material offloaded from the first storage carrier to the second storage carrier as measured by the sensor.
