Manual Checkweighing and Portioning:Which Approach Helps You Increase Efficiency?

Generally, it may seem very simple

Mmm, I need to weigh portions of 200 grams ± 5

Operator places the item on the scale and checks if the displayed result is within theexpected tolerance range.

Operator puts an empty container on the scale, tares it and starts portioning.Once the defined tolerance range is reached, he tares the scale and starts workingon the next portion.

Operator portions, with the bulk product placed in tray, directly out of the tray intocontainers beside the scale, tares the scale and starts to fill the next portion.

Basic checkweighing scales typically offer a small graphor lights to indicate that the weight is within thetolerance range.

Dedicated portioning scales offer functions, such as“auto-tare,” to tare individual container weights.

The scale automatically indicates, optically,if the amount is within tolerance and automaticallyresets the display.
