Overview

Bulk Weighing is where you use a smaller weighing hopper to weigh more than the capacity of the weighing hopper and is often used for filling large bags, trucks, boats, trains etc. Commonly used by the agriculture and farming industries (for example: sugar industry and palm oil production), aggregates/mining and food/beverage.

Throughput Mode:
Measure your sites operating performance by helping you know your onsite stock levels and dispatched amounts, reduces give away and also makes certain you only pay for what is delivered. All designed to increase your sites performance & profits.

Target Mode:
Discharge large quantities to a target value giving accurate loading of large vehicles, ships, trains etc., helps reduce give away and increases profits.

Surge Hopper Control:
Surge hopper control keeps your weighing process continually running as any break in your material flow is wasted time and money!

Fast and Slow filling options:
Helps to improve accuracy of your filling process while keeps your throughput to its maximum.

Safety Interlocks:
Built in safety interlocks to improve safety, which will automatically stop the filling process and inform the plant to stop.
