How to run a function exactly every n ms in NodeJS?

Question

Node.js

Hello! Started writing a Web application to get the weight from a weight platform that a car is passing over. You need to do this in real time, because. further processing and plotting is planned.
Backend - NodeJS + Express.

How can I run a function to read the weight every n ms, exactly, without the 200-1500 ms spread that setInterval() and setTimeout() give? Or is it worth writing this part of the program in another language (which one would you recommend)?
