Scayl Phil 5000 Linear Weigher

• Accurate weighing and dispensing of free-flowing granular products.
• Portion control for snacks, nuts, seeds, and confectionery.
• Packaging of dry pet food and animal feed.
• Handling of small hardware components and fixings.
• Integration into automated packaging lines for consistent product weight.

Typical capacity

For this class of linear weigher, a weight range of 15g to 5000g is commonly found, allowing for versatile portioning.

Power supply

Units of this type typically operate on standard single-phase 230V, 50Hz UK mains power.

Throughput

Throughput for linear weighers can vary significantly based on product characteristics and target weight, but typically ranges from 10 to 30 weighments per minute.

Construction material

Most industrial linear weighers are constructed from stainless steel for hygiene and durability, particularly in food processing environments.

Footprint

The footprint for a standalone linear weigher is generally compact, but buyers should consider space for product infeed and outfeed systems.

Accuracy

Linear weighers are designed for high accuracy, commonly achieving tolerances within 0.5-2g depending on the product and target weight.
