Material flow control through weighing systems.
Material flow in a manufacturing plant is most effectively managed through integrated weighing systems. By their nature, food products must be measured with precision. From raw-material intake to final packaging—every stage requires accurate weighing and control.
At primary inbound/outbound points, truck weighbridges are used; in warehouse areas—pallet scales, monorail scales, and more—providing traceability and control over material movement within the facility.
All systems are electronically controlled, enabling easy monitoring and integration with other components of the production line.
Automated Applications
Using automated scales on production lines ensures high speed, quality, and cost efficiency. Depending on the production stage, belt scales or flow scales are employed—for continuous measurement or for automatic control of the permitted material quantity against preset setpoints.
At the final production stage, packaging scales can be implemented to provide a final check of the finished product.
Solutions
- Tank Weighing Systems
Used to measure material quantities in tanks, silos, and mixers. - Dosing Control Systems
Suitable for processes where different materials are blended to create a new product—delivering high accuracy and precision in dosing. - Production Line Control Systems
Checkpoints placed at various stages allow operators to monitor the process in real time and to adjust or stop material flow when necessary.
