Automated In-Motion Check-Weigher System
Brechbuhler Scales, Inc. (BSI) Fort Wayne has reached an exciting milestone with the successful installation of the first of two automated in-motion check-weigher systems. This project reflects our ongoing commitment to providing innovative weighing and automation solutions that meet the evolving needs of our customers.
Unlike static weighing systems, in-motion check-weighers are designed to capture accurate product weights while items move along a conveyor or process line. This technology eliminates production slowdowns and provides real-time data that is critical for quality control, compliance, and operational efficiency.
The Fort Wayne team worked closely with the customer to integrate advanced PLC-based automation, ensuring seamless communication between the weighing system and their existing production controls. The result is a system that not only delivers precise weight measurements but also streamlines operations by automatically identifying and rejecting out-of-spec products.
This installation highlights the capabilities of our engineered solutions team—combining deep expertise in scale technology, automation, and process integration to solve unique challenges across industries. With one system already successfully installed and another soon to follow, our customer will benefit from improved accuracy, reduced waste, and increased throughput.
Congratulations to the Fort Wayne branch and the entire BSI team for their dedication, technical expertise, and commitment to innovation. This project is another step forward in advancing how industries think about weighing and automation.
