Mettler Toledo - Check Weigher

• Used in end-of-line packaging for verifying product weight compliance.
• Applied in food processing for ensuring consistent portion control.
• Utilised in pharmaceutical manufacturing for quality control of packaged goods.
• Implemented in logistics and distribution centres for parcel weight verification.
• Suitable for general industrial applications requiring accurate weight checks of discrete items.

Typical capacity

Units of this class commonly handle items up to 50 kg, with some variations depending on the specific model.

Power supply

Typically, single-phase 230 V, 50/60 Hz supply is required for checkweighers of this type.

Weighing accuracy

For this class of equipment, weight indication intervals commonly range from 1 g to 50 g, depending on the maximum capacity and application.

Conveyor type

This unit features a non-driven roller conveyor, suitable for manual product handling.

Terminal interface

Many checkweighers utilise robust industrial terminals, such as the Mettler Toledo ICS 425d, for weight display and basic control.

Throughput

Throughput for manual checkweighers is operator-dependent; automated systems offer significantly higher rates.

• What is the primary function of a check weigher?

  A check weigher's primary function is to verify the weight of individual products or packages against pre-set target weights, ensuring compliance with specifications and regulations.

• Can this type of check weigher be integrated into an automated line?

• What maintenance is typically required for a used check weigher?

• Is calibration necessary for a check weigher?

• What are the common applications for a manual check weigher?

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.
