Challenge
A high-volume packaging facility was experiencing bottlenecks in its end-of-line quality control process. Manual weight checks caused:
- Slower throughput and line interruptions
- Inconsistent weight verification
- Increased labor requirements
- Difficulty maintaining accurate, real-time product data
The client needed a fully automated, integrated weighing system that could deliver continuous, precise weight measurement without slowing down production.
They also required real-time data capture for quality reporting and compliance — and a solution that would easily integrate into their existing conveyor system and control infrastructure
Solution
Brechbuhler's Automated Weighing Solutions designed and implemented a custom automated in-motion checkweigher system , tailored to the customer’s production environment.
Key System Features:
- Automated, high-speed weighing that eliminates the need for manual checks.
- Real-time data integration with PLC and ERP systems for seamless communication and quality tracking.
- Automated reject mechanism to ensure consistent quality control.
- Compact, modular design that allows the system to be added to existing conveyor infrastructure with minimal downtime.
- Durable construction, built to handle continuous industrial use in a hygienic environment
The engineering team worked directly with the client’s automation specialists to ensure the system integrated smoothly into theirexisting process controls and data network. The added efficiency consolidated four rework roles into a single floating position,improving task coverage and freeing up team capacity
