Aseptic packaging, accurate to the gram
The new four-lane scale is positioned directly downstream from the slicer in the VC999 packaging system for cheese, ham and sausages.
After slicing, the checkweigher returns information about the portion weight in all four lanes. If necessary, the slice thickness and with it the package weight can quickly and automatically be adjusted in this manner. One especially noteworthy features of the new multi-lane scale is its design.
The scale and measurement technology is exposed rather than being built into the protective housing.
That makes it easy to access. This is made possible by the special design of the PW27 from HBK.
The load cell has no edges or gaps and is made of food-compatible stainless steel, which makes it easy to clean. Even the antibacterial cable laced with silver reduces the risk of contamination.
The PW27 is the only EHEDG-certified load cell in the small weight class worldwide to date. The advantages for the user are clear. The new packaging system reduces the work required for cleaning, resulting in lower costs. At the same time it offers valuable protection from contamination of portions during the cutting and packaging processes, thereby eliminating cost-intensive recalls that damage the company‘s image.
These are valuable advantages that will convince many users to buy the new packaging system.
