Optimised Weighing
We want to banish the ‘giveaway’ product that erodes your margin. The unique Cox & Plant Synchronisation system, harmonises the infeed speed to the multihead weigher by tracking the run times and then automatically adjusting the speed of the conveyor.
The benefit of this, is that the multihead dispersion table is perfectly fed via our Spigot discharge to ensure all ‘heads’ are evenly distributed, allowing the weigher to seek the ideal algorithm to achieve the required target weight.
In field trials where seven different product sectors were trialed to achieve 100gm bag weight accuracy, the following consistent results were achieved.
FEED MECHANISM | SYNCHRONISATION | % ACCURACY OF TARGET WEIGHT |
Belt Feeder | No | 79%* |
Cox & Plant straight edged discharge | Yes | 93%* |
Cox & Plant Spigot discharge | Yes | 98%* |
