Easiweigh Checkweigher

• Ensuring products meet specified weight tolerances in food packaging lines.
• Verifying fill levels for pharmaceutical products to maintain regulatory compliance.
• Checking the weight of cosmetic items to prevent under- or overfilling.
• Detecting missing components in assembled products by weight deviation.
• Sorting products into different weight categories for further processing or packaging.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, throughput commonly ranges from 60 to 200 packs per minute, depending on product size and weight.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a single-phase 230V AC supply, 50Hz.

Weighing range

Commonly, checkweighers like the PW 250 can handle product weights from a few grams up to 10-20 kg.

Accuracy

Typical accuracy for this equipment class is often within +/- 0.5g to +/- 2g, depending on the product and speed.

Conveyor width

Conveyor widths commonly found on units of this type are between 200mm and 300mm.

Footprint

A typical footprint for a compact checkweigher like the PW 250 would be approximately 1000mm to 1500mm in length and 600mm to 800mm in width.

Construction material

Most industrial checkweighers are constructed from stainless steel for hygiene and durability.

• What is the primary function of a checkweigher?

  A checkweigher automatically weighs every item that passes over its conveyor, comparing the weight to pre-set target limits to ensure products are within tolerance.

• Can this checkweigher handle different product sizes?

• What kind of maintenance does a used checkweigher require?

• Is this unit suitable for food contact applications?

• What happens to products that are out of weight tolerance?

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.
