In the beverage manufacturing industry, weight data is important at each step of the processing and packaging process – from incoming raw materials to outgoing finished goods. Installing a load cell or batching weigh bar on a tank, hopper or vessel can create a process weighing application for complete traceability and recipe control as part of the beverage production process. Adding a weight indicator and software can automate the mixing of your raw ingredients.

Properly managing inventory and billing in beverage processing environments depends upon documenting and weighing both inbound and outbound freight. Our range of bench and floor scales are ideal for goods-in applications, while our range of truck scales can help to ensure that both incoming and outgoing loads are weighed quickly and accurately. Conveyor scales can be used to weigh in motion for the weighing of individual boxes, cartons or cans, with labelling and washdown systems ideal for beverage packing applications.

In the beverage production industry, recipe control ensures that each batch of the end product maintains the same consistency and quality levels. By pairing weighing equipment with recipe control or recipe formulation software, beverage manufacturers can measure raw ingredients, ensure quality/batch control and store the data required for production records.

A hygienic design is a must for any equipment used within beverage production. We have a range of scales and weighing systems that are designed to withstand the kind of heavy washdown procedures found in beverage production. Our checkweighers, bench, and floor scales have IP69 washdown certification.

Regular checking and calibration of weighing instruments has become a part of BRC, SQF, IFS, and FSS C22000 regulations for the beverage industry. These include recommended guidelines for testing and adjustment of metrological equipment, as well as traceability and documentation of calibration and maintenance activities.
