Weighing machine which subtracts tare weights

摘要

A combinational weighing machine, for combining a plurality of packaged products to be boxed in by selecting a combination of products such that the total of net weights of the products exclusive of their tare weights will be close to a given target weight, includes many weight detecting devices for measuring and detecting the gross weight of one or more packaged products, a subtractor or subtractors for obtaining net weights by subtracting tare weights from gross weights and a combination calculator for combining a plurality of the weight detecting devices and selecting an optimum combination out of them of which the total net weight is equal to or the closest to the target value.
