FAQ

A conveyor scale simply acquires the weight and sends it out.

A checkweigher will acquire the weight, compare the weight against an upper and lower limit, and then take an action. Just a few examples of actions are illuminate a light, stop a conveyor or divert the product off the line for rework (most popular).

No.  Stopping the conveyor for each product would significantly increase component wear & tear, and reduce the throughput.

Even while the belts is moving our NTEP certified scale and algorithm will accurately determine the weight of the product.

NTEP is required when you are selling your product based on its weight.  Therefore all food processing facilities require an NTEP inline conveyor scale in their facility when capturing product weight (which will be sold).  NTEP is also required when transmitting a weight for creating a shipping label.

Yes. We offer RS-232 (serial) and Ethernet TCP/IP communication as standard. (Ethernet IP option is also available if you prefer the Allen Bradley communication protocol.)
