Checkweigher FAQs

Can I get a checkweigher metal detection combination?2023-08-02T14:53:18+01:00

Yes you can. Checkweighers are ideal for monitoring the weight of your products, but by integrating a metal detector onto your line you get added security over the quality and safety of your products. Metal detectors can be integrated with existing units, or you can purchase a combination unit as new.

How do I look after my checkweigher?2023-08-02T14:51:51+01:00

You should have a planned preventative maintenance (PPM) plan in place for your checkweigher. This will consist of regular checks to components like the conveyor belt and reject mechanism. A PPM plan will prolong the life of your checkweigher system, help you avoid costly downtime and is usually mandated by auditors.

What checkweigher reject methods should I use?2023-08-02T14:49:14+01:00

There are a variety of reject options that a checkweigher can use, including air blast, diversion arms and more. Each option is suitable for different weights and types of products, so you wouldn’t necessarily choose an option for yourself – this would be determined by the supplier/manufacturer.
