Dynamic Weighing

Checkweighing

Dynamic Checkweigher is integrated in food production lines, and it is used to ensure that the weight of a pack of the commodity is within specified limits, while any packs outside the tolerance are taken out of line automatically.

Grading

Automatically grades products based on specified quantities and mass. Ideal for grading products ranging from seafood to vegetables.

Trend Control

The trend control function improves production efficiency in filling process. The system calculates the product mass mean value and outputs a pulse proportional to the deviation from the reference value. This function can be used for feedback control of the filling machine that uses a pulse motor for products such as powders and liquids as well as other production lines.

More than 250 standard Checkweigher models available

We offer a full line-up of checkweighers according to the product size, shape, and IP rating. Anritsu checkweighers with advanced weighing technology deliver accurate weight measurement at high speeds. Our unique weighing solutions respond to diverse customers' needs ranging from feedback control for filling machines to compliance to HACCP and GMP regulations.

Foreign body inspection

X-ray Inspection

X-ray Inspection System is becoming a standard of foreign body inspection method these days. X-ray can detect not only metals but also other contaminants such as stone and plastic. X-ray is hardly affected by metalized film, product temperature, and salt, compared to Metal Detector.

Anritsu HD imaging provides better imaging and better digital data for analysis resulting in significantly improved performance that allows you to .. Discover What You’ve Been Missing! Anritsu has developed its unique and intelligent image processing filters and algorithms available for optimal detection within different applications. From bulk to cased products, Anritsu has a solution tailored for the best inspection possible.

Metal Detection

Metal detection is a basic and traditional method for foreign body inspection. A metal detector can detect metals such as ferrous, stainless steel, and aluminium by using the characteristics of magnetic fields.

Anritsu’s patented dual-frequency technology is optimized for both ferrous and non-ferrous metals simultaneously. With the improved auto-learn process, the system analyses more than 10,000 combinations of frequencies and algorithms to provide the best detection sensitivity.

Product Integrity Check

Typical Product Integrity Check Functions with Anritsu X-ray

Anritsu XR75 X-ray Inspection System has a wide variety of useful product integrity check funtions which works simultaneously with foreign body detection.

Shape Check

X-ray system can inspect not only foreign substances but also cracks and chips in the contents, and shape defects such as air bubbles remaining inside.

Count Check

When the mass of each piece in a package varies per piece: The variation in the mass of each piece can be equivalent to the mass of one piece when adding each variation per piece in a package. In this case, the number of pieces in a package cannot be evaluated by the mass of the entire product. In the case, the piece count can be identified by using x-ray projection images. The virtual weight inspection is ideal for a product placed in the given position in a package such as cupcakes, Chinese steamed dumplings, etc.
