The company was not able to conduct final check weighing at the end of the packaging process until now. A custom weighing solution in an integrated control environment had to change all that.

Another demand was that it should be possible to weigh different types and shapes of packages containing a variety of products.

The solution: Implementation of customer requirements in a flexible control environment. A total of three check weighers were put into operation. The core element of the weight measurement for each weigher is the Siemens SIWAREX WP231 weighing electronics connected to a SIMATIC S7-1215C controller.

The Siemens standard components combined with our plant allows us to offer customized solutions for the food industry.“

Cost savings thanks to check weighing: The use of new check weighers has brought considerable cost savings for the vegetable supplier. Now, no more packages are sold weighing more than the specified packaging weight. Packages above the setpoint are immediately sorted out and the sorting and packaging process is repeated for their contents. Strict compliance with weight requirements saves money.

The Dutch company RMA Techniek was selected for implementing the weighing solution. As a plant builder and specialist for weighing equipment especially in the food industry, RMA Techniek accompanied the entire project from design to commissioning of the check weigher.

When designing washing, weighing and sorting systems for fruit and vegetable processing, for example, the machine builder often has to takes highly individual, customer-specific demands into account. The vegetable grower also had special requirements for it check weigher.
