Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, net weigh capacities commonly range from a few grams up to 5 kg, depending on the specific model and load cell configuration.

Power supply

Units of this type typically operate on standard single-phase mains electricity, commonly 230V, 50Hz in the UK.

Weighing accuracy

Accuracy is typically high, often to within 0.1-1 gram for smaller capacities, crucial for precise net weighing and counting.

Throughput

Semi-automatic scales rely on operator interaction; throughput for this class of equipment is typically 10-20 weighments or counts per minute, depending on product and operator efficiency.

Construction material

Frames are commonly mild steel with painted finishes, with product contact parts often in stainless steel for hygiene and durability.

Counting function

Features a counting mode that uses the average piece weight to determine the number of items in a batch, suitable for uniform products.
