Checkweigher Market Key Developments:

• In September 2022, Coop Bilanciai introduced a new range of automatic checkweigher systems, providing flexible weighing, labelling, and control solutions for products with variable or fixed weights. The Galaxi HS series seamlessly integrates into production processes and can achieve a production rate of 130 items per minute with a maximum weight of 15 kilograms. Its AISI 304 stainless steel structure enables the weighing of both variable and fixed-weight products. The system automatically prints and applies EU regulation-compliant labels, including barcodes, QR codes, ingredient information, nutritional values, production lot details, pricing, and traceability data.
• In April 2021, Minebea Intec GmbH upgraded its checkweigher to optimize checkweighing efficiency. The upgrade incorporates the new WZED load cell with electromagnetic force compensation and integrated high-speed electronics featuring a digital controller. This advanced weighing sensor, in conjunction with the digital controller, enhances reliability, precision, and offers an extremely low minimum weight capability.
