• Accurate weighing of free-flowing products in food processing.
• Portion control for items such as seafood, poultry, or produce.
• Packaging lines requiring precise weight dispensing into bags, trays, or cartons.
• Integration into automated production lines for improved efficiency and reduced giveaway.
• Batching operations where multiple components need to be weighed and combined.

Typical capacity range

For this class of multi-head weigher, capacities commonly range from 10g up to several kilograms per weighment, with this specific model advised for 300g to 5kg fish portions.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with a control voltage of 24V DC.

Throughput

Throughput for multi-head weighers varies significantly based on product, target weight, and number of heads; for a 20-head unit, speeds can typically range from 60 to over 120 weighments per minute.

Construction materials

Components in contact with product are typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) for hygiene and durability.

Footprint

A multi-head weigher of this configuration typically requires a significant overhead footprint, often around 1.5m x 1.5m for the main unit, plus space for infeed and outfeed systems.

Accuracy

Precision balances in this category are designed for high accuracy, typically achieving weighment tolerances within 0.5-2g depending on product characteristics and target weight.

• What kind of products can a multi-head weigher handle?

  Multi-head weighers are highly versatile and suitable for a wide range of free-flowing products, including granular, fragile, sticky, and irregular-shaped items such as snacks, confectionery, fresh produce, frozen foods, and non-food items.

• What is meant by 'multi-head'?

• Are infeed conveyors always separate?

• What maintenance is typically required for a multi-head weigher?

• Can this equipment be integrated into an existing production line?

Precision and portable balances are valued for their accuracy and reliability across laboratory and pharmaceutical settings. Buyers typically seek models with proven calibration stability and minimal drift over time. When purchasing used equipment, industry practice emphasises checking calibration certificates, verifying display functionality, and confirming availability of replacement parts. These instruments are generally regarded as durable workhorses that perform well if properly maintained. Key strengths include repeatability, compact design for space-constrained labs, and compatibility with existing analytical workflows.
