Semi-Automatic Netweigh-Counting Scales 5500

• Used for accurate weighing and counting of small to medium-sized components in manufacturing.
• Commonly applied in packaging lines for granular products, fasteners, or confectionery.
• Suitable for portion control in food processing, such as nuts, seeds, or dried fruits.
• Utilised in pharmaceutical and chemical industries for precise batching of ingredients.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, capacities typically range from a few grams up to 25-50 kg, depending on the specific model and application.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on standard single-phase industrial power, typically 230V, 50Hz in the UK and EU.

Weighing accuracy

Typically offers high precision, often to within +/- 0.1% of the target weight, suitable for netweighing applications.

Throughput

Semi-automatic systems commonly achieve throughputs of 10-20 weighments per minute, depending on product characteristics and operator interaction.

Material contact parts

Often constructed from stainless steel for hygiene and durability, particularly when used in food or pharmaceutical environments.

Footprint

For a semi-automatic unit, the footprint is typically compact, designed for integration into existing production areas without requiring extensive space.

• What is the difference between netweighing and gross weighing?

  Netweighing measures only the product's weight, excluding the packaging or container. Gross weighing measures the combined weight of the product and its container.

• Can this equipment handle different product types?

• What level of operator involvement is required?

• Is calibration necessary for these scales?

• What maintenance is typically involved?

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.
