Linear weighing
Linear weighing is a special technique in the food industry in which products are weighed with high precision for further processing or packaging. Unlike more sophisticated systems such as combination weighers, linear weighing involves passing the product over a series of linear conveyors or vibrating channels to a weighing unit. This makes linear weighing systems ideal for products that require gentle and precise handling, such as fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, meal components, fish, meat, snacks and more.
In the food industry, accurate weighing is essential to ensure consistency and minimize waste. Linear weighing machines ensure that each product contains the right amount. With that, you not only save costs but also ensure even quality and appearance of the finished product.
How does linear weighing work?
Linear weighing machines use vibrating channels or hygienic conveyors. This moves products evenly and in a controlled manner to the weighing units. The product is then fed in a stream to the weighing cells, where the weight is measured in real time. Once the target weight is reached, feeding of the product stops and a measured portion is dosed for further processing or packaging.
Smart weighing of difficult product
ITW Technik's linear weighing machines, such as the Alpha topping weighers and the Alpha bulk weighers, are specially designed for handling tricky, difficult to transport, viscous or marinated product. Depending on the specific requirements of the production line, the machines are adapted to the customer's needs. In doing so, we ensure an efficient process to transport and weigh products from A to B with minimal product damage.
