Currently, in order to automate the bottle weighing process and eliminate the risk of the finished product being underweight, businesses have been applying the checkweigher system to optimize and increase efficiency in the process. production line. Today, VULETECH will learn with you about the product classification solution – checkweigher.
I. What is a checkweigher?
Checkweigher machine used to check the weight of the product on the conveyor to detect the wrong product and remove the defective product.
II. Structure of checkweigher machine:
1. Drawing of the checkweigher machine:
Accordingly, this system includes:
- Control cabinet
- Load cells
- Conveyor system: conveyor to weigh, weigh conveyor, reject conveyor, conveyor containing rejected bins
- Door cover
- Cylinder barrel type.
2. Specifications:
| Power source voltage used | 1P 220VAC 50Hz |
| Control supply voltage | 24VDC |
| Compressed air source | 6 Bar |
| Maximum speed of 1 chain | 15 barrels/minute |
| Product weight | 500g- 6000g |
| Operating time | 21 shifts/week, 51 weeks/year |
3. Mechanism of action:
Before the box is put on the weighing conveyor, it will go through the conveyor with a barcode camera used to check the type of box prepared through the balance, the barcode data is sent to the software on the PC for processing and comparison with the measured weight value. stored in the computer database.
After the bin passes through the weighing conveyor, it will be rejected if the bin does not reach the weight, this is done on the conveyor behind the weighing conveyor using the cylinder to push the defective bin.
All products are recorded and saved by the system on the computer, automatically reporting daily, weekly, monthly and yearly.

4. Advantages of checkweigher
Increased accuracy
The main benefit of using a Checkweigher balance is savings. The ability to manufacture a product with the correct weight leads to profit savings as no materials are wasted and the process does not need to be repeated. In many cases, these weights are so important that they determine whether a plant is profitable or not.
Product quality assurance
The weight of a product is one of the important criteria measured during quality control, whether it is consumable goods or auto parts. Being able to make an accurate measurement, quickly sent to a PC for statistical analysis is one of the key functions of quality control.
Meet regulatory requirements
Using a Checkweigher balance helps to ensure weight accuracy. This is especially important for companies that sell products at the retail level that have product weight on the package. Each state in the US has a different regulatory agency responsible for checking the weight of products. If the product is overweight or underweight, the agency can fine the manufacturer. Measurement throughout the manufacturing process is a great way to ensure that this doesn’t happen.
Provide accurate data for better process management
Checkweighers can be an important part of the quality control process. Weighing ingredients, recipes, and finished products give management the opportunity to check on all aspects of the manufacturing process. They can determine which parts are running well and which need improvement.
Productivity tracking
Some systems can also monitor operator output. This provides management with information about who took the measurement, when the measurement was taken, when they started and when they finished. The system provides useful data and information that enables businesses to improve their productivity and processes.
