How our checkweighers work
The weight of the different samples that have been weighed by the checkweigher can be sent to the PLC (programmable logic controller) by means of a fieldbus, such as Profinet. This way, signal exchanges between machines in the front and in the back becomes perfectly possible. With a high line speed, all packets can be randomly weighed, both in shape and weight.
The junction box and the control panel are housed in the sheet steel housing of the checkweigher. This casing is also part of the frame. This creates a solid construction under the load cell, so that vibrations do not affect the weighing moments.
The checkweigher can be expanded with a rejector for products that fall outside the set over and under tolerance. In this way, the production line can continue to run. This prevents unnecessary standstill of the machines. It is possible to read the checked weight and store it in a database.
