A checkweigher is a high-precision weight measuring instrument, designed to check the weight of individual products, usually on a conveyor, on production lines during the manufacturing process.
Industrial checkweighers are predominantly used as part of a manufacturing quality control program. Using them in production facilities is often used to show compliance with local or global packaging laws and regulations.
An inline industrial checkweigher checks that each package is the correct weight as it moves through a production line. They are key to providing confidence that manufacturers are delivering quality products, promoting high levels of customer satisfaction. Selling underweight products can result in fines, recalls, or other penalties. Overweight products can generate unnecessary waste and expensive product giveaway. Industrial checkweighers can be used in most industries as part of an effective quality assurance system for:
A typical checkweighing system is made up of:
There are many different checkweigher designs in common use. The components used to construct a checkweigher will vary in detail depending on how they are used. The characteristics of the items being weighed and their surrounding environment are also have a strong impact on the design.
The main differences between static and dynamic checkweighers are:
Static Checkweighers
Dynamic Checkweighers
Both static and dynamic checkweighers are to be found in most production environments, with static checkweighers commonly determining target weights for dynamic checkweighers.
The choice of type of checkweighing system used on a production line is usually determined by application requirements and processes.
Industrial checkweighers have long been a key element of production operations, as they are capable of far more than just weighing, and can actually optimize your entire production process. Benefits of implementing an industrial checkweighing solution:
In addition, an industrial checkweigher can effectively improve your overall equipment efficiency (OEE) and thus reduce your total cost of ownership (TCO).
