Combiweigh Series M

• Accurate weighing of granular products in the food processing industry.
• Portioning of confectionery, snacks, and frozen foods.
• Precise weighing for non-food items such as small components or hardware.
• Integration into automated packaging lines for high-speed operation.

Typical capacity

For this class of multihead weigher, individual weigh buckets commonly handle weights from a few grams up to several kilograms per drop, depending on product density.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a 3-phase industrial power supply, commonly 400V AC, 50Hz, with appropriate current ratings.

Number of heads

This specific unit is an 18-head configuration, which is common for achieving high speed and accuracy in multihead weighing.

Construction material

Combiweigh systems are typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel for hygiene and durability in processing environments.

Throughput

Throughput for an 18-head multihead weigher can typically range from 60 to over 120 weighments per minute, depending on product characteristics and target weight.

Accuracy

Multihead weighers are designed for high accuracy, typically achieving weighment tolerances within 0.5-1.5g for many applications.
