Optiway 2 Lane Linear weigher

• Precisely weighing and dispensing free-flowing granular or particulate products.
• Packaging products such as coffee beans, nuts, seeds, grains, and snack foods into bags, pouches, or cartons.
• Integrating with vertical form fill and seal (VFFS) machines or cartoners for automated packaging lines.
• Portioning ingredients in food processing or industrial batching operations.

Typical capacity

For this class of 2-lane linear weigher, throughput commonly ranges from 10 to 30 weighments per minute, depending on product density and target weight.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a standard industrial single-phase or three-phase electrical supply, commonly 230V or 400V, 50Hz.

Weighing range

Linear weighers are generally suited for target weights from a few grams up to several kilograms, with this unit previously handling 2.5Kg.

Footprint

Known for their compact design, linear weighers offer a relatively small footprint compared to multi-head weighers, making them suitable for space-constrained environments.

Control system

The mention of Sparc Optiway controls indicates a robust and widely recognised industrial control platform, offering good integration capabilities.

Product compatibility

Designed for free-flowing products, this type of weigher is particularly effective with items like whole roasted coffee beans due to its gentle handling.

• What is a linear weigher?

  A linear weigher uses vibratory feeders to move product along a straight path into weigh buckets. It typically has multiple lanes that work in sequence to achieve the target weight.

• How does a 2-lane linear weigher differ from a multi-head weigher?

• Can this weigher handle different product types?

• What maintenance is typically required for a linear weigher?

• Is it possible to integrate this weigher with existing packaging machinery?

Filling machines remain sought-after on the secondhand market due to their durability and long operational lifespan. Buyers typically value models from established manufacturers known for robust construction. When purchasing used units, inspectors should verify seal integrity, calibration accuracy, and maintenance history, as these directly affect product consistency and line efficiency. Common strengths include straightforward mechanical design facilitating repairs and adaptability to different container sizes. Reliability and minimal downtime are frequently cited priorities among processors seeking cost-effective production solutions.
