High-speed industrial checkweigher for cartons and bottles
Ensure precise weight control and reject non-compliant packages in high-speed production lines with a versatile checkweighing solution for dry and wet environments.
Ensures Accurate Weighing and Quality Control
The Versa Chain Checkweigher from Thermo Scientific is engineered to enhance high-speed production lines in the food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and consumer goods sectors. Its open chain design minimizes product build-up, ensuring easy cleaning and maintenance. Capable of processing up to 700 packages per minute, it expertly handles cartons, cans, bottles, and pouches. The checkweigher employs a robust weighframe and low-maintenance drive system, offering accuracy depending on the chain material—micropitch, nylatrin, or stainless steel. With a touchscreen interface for easy operation and configurable security levels, it integrates seamlessly with existing production systems. Optional features, such as an infeed conveyor and metal detector, further enhance its utility, while compliance with OIML and MID standards ensures reliable performance. The unit is constructed from 304 stainless steel to withstand harsh environments, featuring adjustable heights to suit various line setups. For increased control and inspection capabilities, upgrade kits are available for existing frames.
