Bilwinco 14 Head Multihead Weigher

• Precisely weighing and packaging granular products such as nuts, sweets, and snacks.
• Accurately portioning frozen foods, pasta, and fresh produce.
• High-speed weighing of non-food items like small hardware components or pet food.
• Integration into automated packaging lines for consistent product weights.

Typical capacity

For this class of 14-head multihead weighers, typical weighing ranges are from 10g to 2000g per drop, depending on product density and desired accuracy.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly require a 230V, 50Hz, single-phase power supply, with some larger systems potentially needing three-phase.

Throughput

Throughput for a 14-head multihead weigher typically ranges from 60 to 120 cycles per minute, influenced by product characteristics and target weight.

Accuracy

Multihead weighers are designed for high accuracy, commonly achieving deviations of less than 1g for smaller target weights.

Material contact parts

Contact parts are typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel, often with rigidized surfaces for enhanced product flow and durability, as noted in the description.

Footprint

While specific dimensions vary, a 14-head weigher on a mobile stand commonly requires a floor area of approximately 1.5m x 1.5m, plus space for infeed and outfeed conveyors.

• What is a multihead weigher used for?

Checkweighers are valued in food processing for reliable weight verification and compliance support. Buyers typically prioritise accuracy, speed, and ease of integration with existing production lines. When purchasing used units, inspecting calibration history, mechanical condition, and software functionality proves important. Industry sentiment favours models offering consistent performance, straightforward maintenance, and robust build quality. Durable construction and proven track records across multiple production environments remain key considerations for buyers assessing secondhand equipment.
