Mettler-Toledo boosts speed and precision of C-Series checkweighers

摘要

THE C-Series checkweighing systems from Mettler-Toledo Product Inspection are setting new standards for speed and precision as new load cell technology allows them to achieve industry-leading throughputs. The FlashCell™ load cells weigh food products at speeds of up to 800ppm, with precision better than required by Measuring Instrument Directive (MID). With three different load cell types in the FlashCell™ portfolio, food manufacturers can select the appropriate loadcell for their products, weighing a complete product range up to 10kg reliably and precisely. Users of Mettler-Toledo C-Series checkweighers can now process products more speedily and reduce product giveaway through greater weighing precision. Manufacturers will also benefit from smaller checkweighing system footprints to fit within limited factory floor space. Performance metrics have already been proven: Mettler-Toledo has carried out extensive tests comparing the new FlashCell™ to current EMFR load cells plus installed its new load cell technology at customer sites. Through these tests and installations, FlashCell™ load cell checkweighers have demonstrated, for example, the ability to achieve throughputs up to 800ppm and a 40% improved standard deviation, all within the MID limits for a 35g cereal bar.
