New Combined Checkweigher from Minebea Intec
Minebea Intec, a leading manufacturer of weighing and inspection technologies, has expanded its portfolio of checkweighers with the new Essentus Performance L combination. The system combines the checkweigher Essentus Performance L with the metal detector Vistus in one base frame and with two operator terminals (HMI) – one for weighing and the other for metal detection.
The combined system allows customers to check the weight of their products, perform integrity checking, control upstream filling systems and check for foreign objects. Minebea Intec developed this new product in direct response to customer demand. The checkweigher Essentus Performance L combination is a highly compact and verifiable solution, which also features an optional stainless steel weighing table for the most stringent hygiene requirements.
A highlight for any production line: The checkweigher Essentus Performance L combination is a re-imagination of one of Minebea Intec’s best-sellers. The checkweigher features the latest strain-gauge technology for precision weight and integrity checking. Its smart features include optional control of upstream filling systems and a range of statistics, which meet all the requirements for production monitoring and data analysis in accordance with the packaged goods regulation.
The detailed analyses can be viewed at a glance directly on the operator terminal. The automatic speed adjustment also means the unit can be easily integrated into existing production lines. What’s more, the system couldn’t be easier to use: Learning mode allows staff even with minimal training to set up new products without a problem and guides them through the process step by step.
By combining the checkweigher Essentus with the metal detector Vistus, Minebea Intec can now offer its customers an ultra-compact and highly efficient solution for their production lines. The metal detector Vistus achieves optimal detection sensitivity under all operating conditions. This means the system can even detect small metal particles like high-alloy steels and non-ferrous metals (copper, brass, aluminium, lead etc.) in products. The metal detector Vistus is based on high-quality components and a broad frequency spectrum for optimal detection performance and reliability. Dialogues tailored to different user groups ensure maximum user friendliness. There is also a range of variants and dimensions available for the Vistus product range, allowing the products to be tailored to specific requirements and applications. For example, the Vistus metal detection technology also ensures outstanding detection results in the Minebea Intec products Vistus Pipeline, Vistus RS and Vistus Freefall.
