The working principle of a multihead combination weigher

The industry standard for many weighing applications is multi-head weighers, commonly known as combination scales.


A multi-head weigher's primary function is to divide large quantities of food into more manageable portions as predetermined weights on touch screen.


· The infeed funnel at the top of the scale is where the conveyor or elevator delivers the bulk product.

· Vibrations from the cone's top and the feed pans spread the product outward from the scale's hub and into the buckets positioned along its border.

· Depending on the fill and product weight, the system can use several different alternatives and software settings.

· In some cases, the scale's contact surfaces will be dimpled steel, making it less attach to it during the weighing process likely that sticky goods, like candies.

· The fill level and type of goods being weighed both affect the size of the buckets used.

· While the product is continuously fed into the weigh buckets, the load cells in each bucket measure how much product are in it at all times.

· The scale's algorithm determines which combinations of buckets, when added together, equal the desired weight.


The applications of a multihead weigher

Each column of hoppers in the weighers is equipped with a weighing head, allowing the machines to function. The product to be measured is divided among several weigh hoppers, and the machine's computer determines which hoppers should be used to achieve the desired weight. These qualities of a multihead combination weigher make it an ideal utility for food manufacturers.


From snacks and candies to shredded cheese, salads, fresh meat, and poultry, the machine is utilized for weighing a wide variety of products with a high degree of accuracy.
