Newtec 5000C Checkweigher roller conveyor

• Ensuring individual product weights meet regulatory and quality standards in food packaging lines.
• Minimising product giveaway and reducing material waste by identifying under/overweight items.
• Verifying count accuracy for multi-pack products based on total weight.
• Integrating into automated production lines for real-time weight monitoring and rejection of non-conforming products.

Typical capacity

Checkweighers in this class commonly handle products from a few grams up to 5kg.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a standard single-phase industrial power supply, often 230V AC.

Weighing accuracy

For this class of equipment, accuracy is typically within +/- 0.5g to +/- 2g, depending on product and speed.

Throughput

Commonly, these checkweighers can process between 60 and 120 items per minute, influenced by product size and stability.

Conveyor type

This unit features a roller conveyor, suitable for stable, rigid products like boxes, trays, or sealed bags.

Footprint

The overall footprint will vary, but the weighbed dimensions (350mm x 330mm) indicate a compact to medium-sized unit for integration into existing lines.

Construction materials

Typically, food-grade stainless steel is used for contact parts and framework to ensure hygiene and durability.

• What kind of products is a roller conveyor checkweigher best suited for?

  Roller conveyor checkweighers are ideal for stable, rigid products such as cartons, boxes, trays, and some types of sealed pouches that can be transported smoothly over rollers without tipping or snagging.

• Can this checkweigher be integrated into an existing production line?

• What maintenance is typically required for a used checkweigher?

• Is calibration necessary for a used checkweigher?

• What rejection mechanisms are commonly found on these units?

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.
