Antares Vision Group's Solution for the High-Speed Weighing Challenge of Jars, Bottles, and Cans

The challenges of high-speed weighing, particularly for products like jars, bottles, and cans used in the food industry, are numerous and complex. Increasing production speed requires a delicate equilibrium between maintaining a high level of precision in weight detection and minimizing the risk of false rejections. Production lines also need to handle a range of products with different shapes and weights, often operating in challenging environmental conditions characterized by humidity and product residues. Indeed, in some cases, containers may be open, leading to potential spillage. It is also crucial that the system can identify and reject non-compliant products (overweight or underweight) at full production speed without slowing down the packaging line. To address these challenges, machines must ensure continuous and reliable operation, minimizing downtime to maintain high productivity and control operational costs.

Antares Vision Group's Checkweighers for Speeds up to 800 Pieces Per Minute

The new CH and FTS checkweigher models by Antares Vision Group, perform high-speed dynamic weighing of bottles, jars, and cans made of tinplate or aluminum. The weighing module, available in chain or skid versions, ensures high precision even at extreme speeds, up to 800 pieces per minute. The variable-width transport system allows for quick adjustment to different product sizes, making format changes simple and fast. Moreover, the weighting range up to 3200 grams ensures maximum operational flexibility. Built with high-quality components and a hygienic design, they are ideal for harsh environments requiring frequent cleaning and for handling open containers and product spills. The screw for timing and spacing with micrometrical adjustment, along with a wide range of multi-finger ejectors and diverters, completes the solution to ensure optimal workflow and rejects management.
