Because it is a weight measuring instrument which is able to measure weights to an accuracy of about 5 to 10 gram. Spring Balances which are commonly for cooking measures,are not very sensitive or accurate. You can only get an accuracy within about 20 grams with spring balances.

A triple beam balance is a scale which measures mass by comparing weight.

No. A triple beam balance measures mass. A spring scale in Newtons can be used to measure the amount of effort it takes to lift a load.
