Easiweigh Ultra Linear Weigher

• Accurate weighing and dispensing of free-flowing and semi-free-flowing products.
• Portion control for snack foods, confectionery, and granular products.
• Packaging lines for fresh produce, such as the mushrooms this unit previously handled.
• Integration into automated packaging systems requiring precise weight measurement.
• Handling of delicate or irregularly shaped items where multihead weighers may be less suitable.

Typical throughput

For a twin-lane linear weigher of this class, throughput commonly ranges from 20 to 60 weighments per minute, depending on product and target weight.

Weighing accuracy

Units of this type typically offer accuracy within 0.5g to 2g, subject to product characteristics and target weight.

Product contact parts

Commonly constructed from stainless steel, often with a dimple finish as described, to reduce product adhesion and facilitate cleaning.

Power supply

Typically requires a standard industrial electrical supply, commonly 230V or 400V, 3-phase, with a compressed air supply for pneumatic components.

Footprint

The overall footprint for a twin-lane unit on a stainless frame, especially with an integrated elevator conveyor, will vary but typically requires a dedicated area of 2m x 1.5m upwards.

Suitable product sizes

Linear weighers are generally well-suited for a range of product sizes, from small granules to larger individual items, depending on the specific vibrator pan and bucket dimensions.

• What is the benefit of a linear weigher over a multihead weigher?

  Linear weighers are often preferred for their simplicity, ease of cleaning, and suitability for products that are sticky, fragile, or have irregular shapes. They can also be a more cost-effective solution for lower to medium speed applications.

• What does 'twin lane configuration' mean?

• What is a 'dimple finish' and why is it used?

• Is the elevator conveyor essential for operation?

• What kind of maintenance does an Easiweigh Ultra Linear Weigher typically require?

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.
