Why Combination Weighers Lead the Future of Accurate Packaging

Wednesday, 10/18/2023

Manual weighing and traditional mechanical packaging waste manpower, reduce efficiency, and often lead to inaccurate results. Combination weighers have emerged as the ultimate solution, delivering precise measurements, intelligent detection, and seamless integration with automated production lines.

The Limitations of Traditional Weighing

Manual weighing and traditional quantitative packaging methods consume excessive labor, cause high material loss, and often lead to inaccurate weight control. These outdated approaches fail to meet the growing need for precision and efficiency in modern packaging.

The Emergence of Computer Combination Weighers

To overcome these challenges, computer combination weighers were developed. Their workflow includes weight detection, signal input, combination calculation, hopper detection, and precise discharge. This process, powered by a stable control system, ensures every weighing cycle is accurate and efficient.


The “Brain” Behind Precision

The core of a combination weigher is its advanced control system—just like the human brain. Once the weighing hopper measures the product, sensors send results back to the computer. The system calculates the most accurate combination based on preset parameters and transfers the selected portions into the collection hopper. This process guarantees accuracy far beyond manual or traditional machines.


Intelligent Detection for Accuracy

Kenwei’s intelligent weighing system enhances precision through:

  1. Double detection during feeding – Ensures consistency and reliability.

  2. Stepper motor monitoring – Confirms hoppers reset correctly after each cycle.

  3. Residual material prevention – Smart systems release or reopen hoppers to avoid leftover material that can affect the next measurement.

These mechanisms significantly improve weighing accuracy and consistency.


Kenwei’s Advanced Intelligent Weighing System

Guangdong Kenwei has developed the “Cloud Configuration” intelligent interconnection system. Its modular design integrates:

  • CAN bus technology & Modbus protocol – For stable industrial communication.

  • IoT remote monitoring – Control via PC, smartphone, or tablet.

  • Data automation & analysis – Streamlined management and production efficiency.

01. External Network Intelligent Control

Using Ethernet, GPRS, Wi-Fi, 3G/4G, and IoT-enabled touchscreens, the system supports remote monitoring, real-time data collection, and advanced equipment management.

02. Internal Network Intelligent Control

By adding network modules and connecting to SCADA, ERP, or MES systems, Kenwei’s weighers enable seamless integration with smart factory environments. This drives automation, boosts productivity, and enhances cost-effectiveness.


Conclusion

Combination weighers are revolutionizing the packaging industry by ensuring unmatched accuracy, reliability, and integration with smart manufacturing systems. With Kenwei’s advanced control technology, businesses can achieve higher efficiency, lower costs, and future-ready packaging automation.
