Marco - Datamaster Station

Applications & Use Cases

• Used in food packing lines for accurate weight measurement and data logging.
• Integrated into quality control processes to ensure product consistency and regulatory compliance.
• Applied in portion control for pre-packaged foods, reducing giveaway and optimising yield.
• Utilised for tracking production data, identifying trends, and improving operational efficiency.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, weighing capacities typically range from a few grams up to several kilograms per item, depending on the specific load cell configuration.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on standard industrial single-phase (e.g., 230V, 50Hz) or three-phase power supplies, with specific requirements varying by model.

Throughput

Throughput rates for touchscreen weigh stations typically depend on the product size, weight stability, and integration with upstream/downstream equipment, often processing dozens of items per minute.

Footprint

The footprint for a Datamaster Station is typically compact, designed for integration into existing production lines, often requiring less than 1 square metre of floor space.

Connectivity

Modern units commonly feature Ethernet, USB, or serial (RS232) ports for data export and integration with factory management systems.

Construction materials

Typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel to meet hygiene standards and ensure durability in washdown environments.
