AJA

• Precisely weighing and packaging granular products such as nuts, seeds, and coffee beans.
• Accurately portioning confectionery items like sweets and chocolates.
• Handling fragile products such as biscuits and crisps with minimal damage.
• Weighing fresh and frozen produce, including vegetables and fruits.
• Packaging non-food items like small hardware components or pet food.

Typical throughput

For a 10-head multihead weigher, throughput can typically range from 60 to 120 weighments per minute, depending on product characteristics and target weight.

Weighing range

Units of this type commonly handle target weights from 10g up to several kilograms, with accuracy typically within 0.5-1.5g depending on the product.

Power supply

Multihead weighers commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with a power consumption of 2-5 kW.

Construction material

As stated, this unit is all stainless steel, which is standard for food processing equipment to ensure hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Footprint

A 10-head multihead weigher typically requires a floor space of approximately 1.5m x 1.5m, plus space for infeed and outfeed conveyors.

Accuracy

This class of equipment is designed for high accuracy, typically achieving deviations of less than 1% of the target weight for most products.

• What products are best suited for a 10-head multihead weigher?

  10-head multihead weighers are highly versatile and best suited for free-flowing, granular, or small piece products, both food and non-food, requiring precise weight control.

• What maintenance is typically required for a multihead weigher?

• Can this unit be integrated into an existing packaging line?

• What are the benefits of an 'all stainless steel' construction?

• What is the typical lifespan of a well-maintained multihead weigher?

Checkweighers are valued in food processing for reliable weight verification and compliance support. Buyers typically prioritise accuracy, speed, and ease of integration with existing production lines. When purchasing used units, inspecting calibration history, mechanical condition, and software functionality proves important. Industry sentiment favours models offering consistent performance, straightforward maintenance, and robust build quality. Durable construction and proven track records across multiple production environments remain key considerations for buyers assessing secondhand equipment.
