General Bagging/Weighing Autoweigher filling investment (ROI) weighing WeighPack Systems

New automated linear scale from WeighPack lessens product waste.

AUTOWEIGHER linear scales from WeighPack Systems Inc. is the first step in automation for growing companies who want to significantly reduce the high cost of labor and product giveaway associated with manual filling.

Available in one or nine quart models and with one or three pans, product is fed automatically from the hopper along a vibrating pan into the weigh bucket below; when the target weight is reached, product is released through a funnel into a container or bag below.

Operating at speeds up to 15 cpm (cycles per minute) in automatic or semi-automatic mode, the tool-less disassembly of the hopper, weigh bucket, and funnel minimize downtime when cleaning or changing product. Pneumatics are not mounted on the weigh bucket eliminating the risk of contamination into air lines. Built with food grade 304 S/S (stainless steel), the AUTOWEIGHER displays product weight in Imperial or Metric and includes a foot pedal for semi-automatic operation. As a stand-alone unit, the AUTOWEIGHER can be set on a table top or floor stand and can easily interface with auxiliary equipment at a later date.

Available with many different finishes and options, the AUTOWEIGHER can weigh a very wide range of products including: poultry, snacks, coffee, rice, nuts, produce, chemicals, powders, pharmaceuticals, hardware, and many more. AUTOWEIGHER scales are perfect for companies looking to increase productivity, reduce costs, and position themselves for future growth through automation.
