CHECKWEIGHER
-
Checkweigher is a machine that
checks the weight of a package, product, or carton that travels across
the load cell of the machine. Checkweighers are outfitted with
different kinds of product reject devices to prevent underweight and
overweight packages from proceeding down line. Checkweighers determine
overweight and underweight based on parameter inputs.
Checkweigher
are also used to automatically space filled packages, weight them to
check the accuracy of the gross weight, segregate the underweight
packages, produce feed-back information for controlling the filling
operation and perform a number of other control and record keeping
operations.
As a general rule, the length of the load cell or weigh cell on the
checkweigher should be approximately 1.5 times the length of the
package to be weighed. (Technically speaking, the package need only be
on the load cell by itself for a fraction of a second, so that a
checkweigher with a smaller load cell is suitable for a slower moving
line.)
Different types of checkweighers are designed for different types of
products. Some checkweighers can accurately weigh small tablets in a
pharmaceutical house and others may weigh large items that weigh
several pounds.
