What is a multihead weigher?

A multihead weigher is a precision weighing machine that uses multiple weigh hoppers to combine partial weights to achieve a target weight with high accuracy and speed. It is widely used in packaging lines for various products.

What are the benefits of a 16-head configuration?

A 16-head configuration offers a good balance of speed and accuracy for many applications. It typically provides higher throughput than machines with fewer heads, making it suitable for medium to high-volume production.

Can this type of weigher handle different product types?

Yes, multihead weighers are versatile. With appropriate settings and sometimes specific tooling (e.g., dimpled buckets for sticky products), they can handle a broad range of products from dry goods to frozen items.

What maintenance is typically required for a multihead weigher?

Routine maintenance typically includes daily cleaning of product contact parts, periodic checks of load cells and vibrator amplitudes, and lubrication of moving components as per the manufacturer's guidelines. Belts and seals may require occasional replacement.

Is it possible to integrate this weigher with existing packaging machinery?

Multihead weighers are designed for integration. They commonly interface with upstream feeding systems and downstream packaging machines like VFFS baggers, cartoners, or tray sealers via electrical signals and mechanical conveyors.

What does '3 Tier memory buckets' mean?

This typically refers to a system where the weigher has an additional set of 'memory' or 'booster' buckets below the main weigh buckets. These hold product that has been weighed but not yet discharged, allowing for more combinations and higher accuracy or speed.

Informazioni tipiche per questa categoria di macchinari. Verifichi sempre i dettagli con il venditore.

Accurate weighing and packaging of granular and free-flowing products.
Portioning of snacks, confectionery, nuts, and frozen foods.
High-speed weighing for automated production lines.
Handling delicate products requiring gentle transfer.
Integration into vertical form fill seal (VFFS) or tray denesting lines.

Typical throughput: For a 16-head multihead weigher of this class, speeds typically range from 80 to 180 weighments per minute, depending on product characteristics and target weight.
Target weight range: Units of this type commonly handle target weights from a few grams up to several kilograms per weighment.
Product compatibility: Suitable for a wide range of dry, granular, and free-flowing products. Some configurations can handle sticky or fragile items.
Power supply: Typically requires a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with appropriate current ratings for the motor and control systems.
Construction materials: Product contact parts are typically constructed from stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316 grade) for hygiene and durability.
Footprint: A 16-head multihead weigher typically requires a significant floor area, often around 1.5m x 1.5m for the main unit, plus space for infeed and outfeed conveyors.
Control system: Modern units commonly feature PLC-based control with a colour touchscreen HMI for recipe management and operational adjustments.
Multi-product capability: As described, some advanced units in this class are capable of running two different products simultaneously, often with separate discharge chutes.

A multihead weigher is a precision weighing machine that uses multiple weigh hoppers to combine partial weights to achieve a target weight with high accuracy and speed. It is widely used in packaging lines for various products.

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.
