Industrial weight tracking system for injected products

Optimize your production line by accurately tracking product weight variations pre- and post-injection, ensuring precise ingredient incorporation and efficient process control.

Weighs, Records, and Injects Products Accurately

The C.A.T. Pick-Up Injection Weighing Scale by Cooling & Applied Technologies is designed to enhance precision in food processing operations. This scale is equipped to weigh products before and after the injection process, automatically calculating and recording the percentage of injected material with a time/date stamp for seamless traceability. It is particularly suited for applications involving poultry, meat, seafood, and plant-based proteins, ensuring consistency in end-products like chicken breasts and plant-based burger patties.

The scale operates with a 250 lb. load cell on a 20 x 20 base, constructed from stainless steel for robustness and longevity. Its adjustable frame with rear casters facilitates easy mobility within processing and packaging environments. The system supports USB data collection, simplifying integration into existing digital infrastructures for efficient data management and compliance reporting.

Engineered for manual and continuous high-speed operations, the C.A.T. Pick-Up Scale is a vital component for food processing companies aiming to optimize their production efficiency. With its capacity for accurate data recording and injection handling, it directly contributes to improved process control and product quality assurance in demanding industrial settings.
