Applications:
Our Multihead Weigher is versatile and suitable for a broad range of industries, including food sectors such as:
- Poultry (e.g., chicken, turkey)
- Seafood (e.g., fish, shellfish)
- Snacks and Confectionery (e.g., chips, nuts, sweets)
- Frozen Foods (e.g., nuggets, vegetables, fries)

- Pet Food and much more.
Beyond food, our multihead weighers are also effective for weighing non-food products like screws, nails, coins, and other small items.
Key Features:
- Increased Throughput: The 14-head design offers enhanced productivity over the 10-head model, making it ideal for contract packers and food manufacturers seeking higher volumes.
- High-Speed Precision: Achieve accurate, consistent weights for each pack, reaching up to 120 bags per minute.
- Mix-Weighing: The weigher’s precision can handle up to eight components, making it ideal for products with multiple ingredients, such as breakfast cereals or ready meals.
- Filling Versatility: Suitable for filling bags, trays, and even delicate products like handmade chocolates and gourmet biscuits, with custom systems for splash-free delivery.
Operational Principle:
A Multihead Weigher works by distributing bulk product into smaller increments based on pre-programmed weights. The product is fed into the system, which disperses it into pool hoppers, where each hopper drops the product into a weigh hopper as it empties. The computer system calculates the weight in each hopper and selects the optimal combination that meets the target weight, ensuring high-speed and accurate packing.
- Gravity, Vibration, or Centrifugal Force is used for dispersion.
- Vibration, Gravity, Belts, or Screw Systems can drive feeding.
The machine is engineered for high speed and efficiency, making it perfect for industries that require rapid, accurate weighing for both food and non-food products.
