Semi-automatic weigher for irregular products
Efficiently handle and weigh irregular products like whole fruits and meats with precision, enhancing portioning accuracy and reducing manual errors in your packaging line.
Weighs and Portions Irregular Solid Products
The Semi Automatic Combination Weigher, models FMC 10 to FMC 16, offers a versatile solution for packaging complex, irregularly shaped products like apples, carrots, salmon fillets, and chicken breasts, addressing the needs of food processing companies, fruit packagers, and ready meal manufacturers. This machine bridges the gap between manual handling and fully automatic systems by allowing manual product placement on weigh belts, followed by automatic consolidation and conveyance for optimal portioning. Operating with a maximum speed of 30 packs per minute, it ensures precision with a minimum weight accuracy of 1g and accommodates unit weights ranging from 10g to 1kg. Designed for integration into existing lines, it supports sequential processing with multihead and linear weighers, enhancing efficiency across downstream and upstream operations. Built for endurance, the weigher functions efficiently within a temperature range of 0 to 40 degrees Celsius, is powered by a 220V, 50-60Hz supply, and its stainless-steel construction ensures ease of cleaning and compliance with food safety standards. Customization and engineering support are available to tailor the system to specific operational requirements, ensuring seamless adaptation to diverse production environments.
