Understanding the Role of High-Speed Checkweighers in Production
An automatic checkweigher is an essential automated device in factory production lines, designed to verify the weight or quantity of products in real-time. It ensures that each item—whether it's a single tablet or a small packet—falls within predefined tolerances, flagging any underweight, overweight, or incomplete packages for rejection. This not only prevents defective products from reaching consumers but also optimizes material usage and reduces waste.
For small packaged products, challenges like high-speed processing and precise measurements are amplified. Traditional single-lane systems might bottleneck your line, but a multi-lane checkweigher addresses this by handling multiple streams simultaneously. Our SCP6 model, for instance, supports up to 12 customizable lanes, making it ideal for high-volume operations where space and speed are at a premium.
The Production Workflow: From Creation to Quality Assurance
Let's break down a typical workflow for small packaged products and see how SameGram's multi-lane checkweigher fits in to enhance efficiency.
1. Product Production: This initial stage involves manufacturing the core item—mixing ingredients for snacks, pressing tablets for pharmaceuticals, or filling tubes for cosmetics. Automation here focuses on consistency, but variations in density or filling can lead to weight discrepancies.
2. Packaging: Products are sealed into small formats like stick packs or blister strips. At this point, ensuring uniform filling is key, but manual checks are impractical for high-speed lines.
3. Weighing: Here's where the high-speed checkweigher shines. Integrated into the line, it dynamically weighs items without halting production. Our SCP6 multi-lane checkweigher for small packaged products uses advanced sensors for accuracy down to ±0.02-0.05g, even at speeds of 40-50 cuts per minute per lane. It handles weights from 0.1g to 100g, perfect for tiny packages.
4. Rejection and Screening: Non-compliant items are automatically ejected via integrated rejectors, such as our up-and-out or flipper systems. This step minimizes downtime and ensures only qualified products proceed to shipping.
Integrating a multi-lane checkweigher like the SCP6 into your automated production line offers significant advantages. Its modular design allows for easy installation without major layout changes—simply connect it after your packaging machine. The compact footprint saves space, while customizable lane spacing (e.g., 80mm) adapts to your setup. Plus, with overload protection shielding sensors from extreme pressures, the dynamic checkweigher system maintains long-term reliability in demanding environments.
One of the biggest conveniences is seamless connectivity. The SCP6 Automatic Checkweigher supports real-time data logging for up to 300,000 records, with one-click USB export for traceability. This is invaluable for regulated industries, helping you comply with CE and ISO standards effortlessly. Imagine reducing labor costs by up to 60% through automation—no more manual spot-checks or rework. Our clients in the pharmaceutical sector, for example, use it to screen for missing tablets, while food manufacturers detect underfilled snack packs, all while keeping lines running at peak speed.

Solving Real-World Challenges with SameGram's Solutions
Manufacturers of small packaged products often face issues like inconsistent weights leading to recalls, production slowdowns from single-point failures, or compliance headaches from poor data tracking. SameGram's automatic checkweigher and multi-lane checkweigher systems tackle these head-on.
Take precision: The SCP6's high-accuracy sensors deliver stable results across lanes, even for lightweight items like coffee powder sticks or meal replacement bars. If your line processes 1,000 units per minute, the multi-lane configuration prevents bottlenecks, boosting throughput without sacrificing quality.
Hygiene is another pain point, especially in food and pharma. Our food checkweigher systems feature quick-dismantle components for easy cleaning, using food-grade 304 stainless steel to meet GMP standards. This reduces maintenance time from hours to minutes,our food checkweigher keeping your operation sanitary and efficient.
Data management? Forget manual logs—the intuitive multi-language interface lets operators monitor and export data instantly. For instance, if you're auditing for HACCP compliance, the traceable records provide all the evidence you need.
We've seen real results: A cosmetics producer integrated our SCP6 food checkweigher and cut rejection rates by 40%, thanks to automated screening for underfilled tubes. In logistics, it verifies parcel weights for shipping accuracy. These aren't just features; they're solutions that save time, money, and headaches.
