AutoWeigher - Affordable Table Top Scale

rt

The AutoWeigher from the Paxiom Group is a linear scale designed for growing companies who are interested in taking the first step towards automation. It allows these companies to increase their productivity and their accuracy while reducing their overall labour costs.

The AutoWeigher is available in two models: AW-1 and AW-9. The AW-1 model can weigh as little as 0.5oz. up to 2.5lbs., while the AW-9 can weigh 1oz. to 10lbs. Both models allow product to be fed automatically from the hopper along a vibrating pan into a weigh bucket below; when the target weight is reached, the product is then released from a funnel and into a container or bag. 

While operating in automatic or semi-automatic mode, the AutoWeigher can achieve speeds of up to 15 cycles per minute. Features of the AutoWeigher include: a tool-less removal of the weigh bucket, hopper and funnel which helps minimize the downtime when cleaning and/or changing the product; a foot pedal for semi-automatic operations; and a large LED display capable of reading in grams or ounces. 

Simple to operate, easy to move, and includes a smooth cleaning process; the AutoWeigher is able to be mounted on a table top or floor stand. And if at a later date, a company would like to expand their packaging line the AutoWeigher can easily be integrated with various types of auxiliary equipment. 
 
The AutoWeigher can weigh a wide range of products such as: poultry, snacks, coffee, rice, nuts, produce, chemicals, powders, pharmaceuticals, hardware, and many more. The Paxiom Group’s linear scale is perfect for those who would like to position themselves for future growth through automation.
