Semi-automatic weigher for irregular products
Weighing irregular products such as whole fruits, vegetables, fish, and meat can be challenging due to their non-uniform shapes and sizes. Traditional weighing methods may lead to inaccuracies and inefficiencies, particularly in applications requiring precise portion control.

Manual placement with automated portion delivery
The Semi-Automatic Combination Weigher from The Food Machinery Company Ltd. bridges the gap between automatic and manual weighing solutions. It employs software similar to a standard multihead weigher but requires manual placement of products onto each weigh belt. Once a combination is ready and requested, the system automatically feeds the combination onto a central conveyor, which then delivers the portion. This weigher is ideal for packing products like whole fruits, vegetables, fish, and meat. With a unit weight range from 10g to 1kg, combinational ranges from 10kg to 16kg, and a high accuracy of 1g, it ensures precision in every portion. The machine operates at a maximum speed of 30 portions per minute and can function in temperatures ranging from 0 to 40 degrees Celsius. Models available include FMC 10, FMC 12, FMC 14, and FMC 16, with varying capacities and net weights.
