Kenwei Showcases Smart High-Speed Multihead Weighers and Intelligent Packaging Solutions at ProPak China 2018
At ProPak China 2018, Kenwei debuted a new generation of high-speed, network-enabled multihead weighers and intelligent packaging machinery. From advanced counting machines to robotic manipulators, Kenwei demonstrated how its innovations drive efficiency and prepare manufacturers for Industry 4.0.
At the ProPak China 2018 exhibition, Kenwei, a pioneer in combination weighing solutions, showcased its latest breakthroughs in high-speed and networked packaging equipment. Reinforcing its leadership in smart packaging innovation, Kenwei unveiled several upgraded systems that address the demands of modern manufacturing under the banner of Industry 4.0.
Next-Generation High-Speed Multihead Weighers
A standout among the new releases was Kenwei's 4th Generation multihead weigher series, including the 3-layer 8-head, 16-head, and 24-head models. These multi-layer designs with memory hoppers double the number of combinations within the same footprint, significantly enhancing packaging efficiency.
For example, the 24-head model can perform independent combinations across four sections simultaneously. This allows a single material to be packed at speeds of up to 240 bags per minute, while supporting up to four different materials at once. These machines meet the dual demands of high speed and high precision, making them ideal for large-scale food packaging lines.
Seamless Networking for Intelligent Factory Integration
Taking a step toward full smart factory integration, Kenwei’s new weighers feature built-in network interfaces, allowing direct communication with ERP and MES systems. This enables remote control, real-time data access, and fully automated work order execution — laying the groundwork for intelligent packaging lines that align with Industry 4.0 standards.
Diversified Solutions for Broader Industries
Kenwei also introduced several new solutions to serve broader applications:
-
Dual-Channel 8-Track Electronic Counting Machine – Designed specifically for the pharmaceutical sector, this device improves efficiency and accuracy in tablet and capsule packaging.
-
GL2415 Aluminum Foil Metal Detector – Tailored for the vacuum packaging of pickled and cooked foods, this machine ensures product safety while maintaining production flow.
-
High-Speed Parallel Manipulators – These robots provide accurate sorting and positioning, efficiently arranging products for secondary packaging. By replacing manual operations, they mark a shift from labor-intensive processes to automated precision.

What is the difference between a multi-head weigher and a linear weigher?
Multi-head Weigher: Ideal for high-speed and high-precision weighing of products with irregular shapes or varying sizes. It provides multiple weighings in parallel for faster processing.
Linear Weigher: It is suitable for powder and granule. It is typically slower than a multi-head weigher but is effective for certain types of applications that require more continuous flow or controlled weighing.
This type of weigher is designed to handle the unique characteristics of pickles, ensuring precise measurements for packaging and distribution. It uses a vertical single screw mechanism to feed the pickles into the weighing system, allowing for efficient and consistent weighing. This technology is particularly useful in food processing and packaging facilities where precise portioning is essential for quality control and customer satisfaction. This specialized equipment is perfect for accurately measuring and dispensing pickles in a production line or packaging facility. The vertical design allows for efficient and precise filling of containers, while the single screw feeding mechanism ensures consistent and reliable weighing.
The Standard Multihead Weigher features a high-speed, spring-free hopper with a new aluminum shell design, ensuring stable and fast weighing performance. The integrative welding of the mouthpiece case and middle seat enhances the overall machine strength. Ideal for weighing granular products like melon seeds, peanuts, nuts, almonds, raisins, candies, and pistachios, this 14-head multihead weigher offers hopper options of 1.6L and 2L. With a maximum weighing speed of 120 packs per minute, it delivers rapid and accurate results for high-volume operations.
The linear weigher is perfect for precise, quantitative weighing of powdery and small granular materials such as white sugar, salt, monosodium glutamate, chicken essence, milk powder, coffee, seasoning powder, and more. Available in up to 5 different specifications, this linear scale offers a maximum weighing speed of up to 70 bags per minute, making it the top choice for accurately weighing powdery materials in high-speed production environments.
The Kenwei JW-B26 Single Multihead Weigher Mixing and Packaging System offers fully automated operation, completing feeding, weighing, filling, date printing, and product output with high accuracy and speed. Ideal for granules, slices, irregular shapes, and mixed products like candy, nuts, snacks, pet food, and even small hardware. Its versatility and precision make it a perfect solution for diverse packaging needs.
