Tong Engineering - Incline Weigher Conveyor

• Used for precise weight measurement of products as they are transported upwards.
• Commonly integrated into packaging lines for portion control and quality assurance.
• Suitable for handling a variety of loose or packaged food items.
• Often found in bakeries, confectionery production, and snack food processing.
• Utilised to ensure products meet specified weight tolerances before further processing or dispatch.

Typical capacity

Throughput for this class of equipment typically ranges from 20 to 100 items per minute, depending on product size and weight.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on a 3-phase, 400V electrical supply, though single-phase options may exist.

Weighing accuracy

Accuracy is typically within +/- 0.5g to 5g, suitable for most food processing applications.

Conveyor belt width

Common belt widths for incline weighers are between 200mm and 600mm, accommodating various product sizes.

Incline angle

The incline angle is typically adjustable or fixed between 15 and 45 degrees, depending on the unit's design and application.

Construction material

For food processing, units are commonly constructed from stainless steel for hygiene and durability.

Footprint

The footprint for an incline weigher conveyor can vary significantly but typically requires 1.5m to 3m in length and 0.8m to 1.5m in width.

• What types of products can an incline weigher conveyor handle?

  This equipment is suitable for handling a wide range of products, including granular materials, small packaged goods, confectionery, and baked items, provided they are stable on the conveyor belt.

• How is an incline weigher conveyor typically integrated into a production line?

• What maintenance is typically required for this type of equipment?

• Are spare parts readily available for used incline weighers?

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.
