More on Checkweighers
Checkweighers are machines that weigh the amount of a package to verify its weight is within designated limits. They’re used in various industries, including food and beverage, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.
These machines are essential in packaging, as they ensure that products are packaged correctly. Overweight or underweight products can have legal and financial ramifications. For example, underweight products can lead to customer complaints, while overweight products can lead to extra shipping costs. Additionally, in the food and beverage industry, incorrect packaging can result in legal issues, such as fines or product recalls.
This class of equipment comes in different varieties, such as in-line, combination, and case checkweighers. In-line are used in the production line to weigh individual products, like cans or bottles. Combination types are used to weigh and inspect products for contaminants, such as metal or glass. Case checkweighers are used to weigh entire shipping cases of products, containing multiple boxes of cereal or bags of chips.
The case variety is particularly important in the packaging industry because they ensure that entire cases of products are packaged correctly. Their job is to weigh cases of products as they move along a conveyor belt. The machine will then reject any cases that are not the correct weight, ensuring that only correctly packaged cases move on to the next stage of the production line.
Case checkweighers are also designed to be user-friendly and easy to operate. They have touch screen displays that allow operators to set weight limits and other parameters. Additionally, they also feature built-in software that can keep track of production statistics, such as the number of cases weighed and the number of rejects.
In addition to ensuring the accuracy of product weights, case versions also have other benefits for the packaging and processing industries. They can help reduce waste and improve sustainability efforts, as they ensure that only correctly packaged cases move on to the next stage of production. They can also help increase efficiency by reducing the need for manual weighing and inspection.
Checkweighers are an integral part of the packaging or production line. They ensure that products are packaged correctly, which can prevent legal and financial consequences. Case checkweighers are crucial in weighing entire cases of products and ensuring that only correctly packaged cases move forward in the process. They’re also designed to be user-friendly and easy to operate, making them easy to implement.
