Weight control for light, tall, and cylindrical products

With EasySet servo-assisted feeding belts


The Challenge
A manufacturer of aerosol products required a checkweighing solution for lightweight, cylindrical body spray bottles.

Key requirements included:

  • Throughput of 100 bottles per minute.

  • Handling products with weights between 150 g and 300 g (up to 600 g max).

  • Stable weighing despite the tall and lightweight nature of the bottles, which made them prone to vibration.

  • Seamless integration into an existing packaging line without interruption.


The Solutions

To address these needs, a customised S Series checkweigher was provided, certified under the MID (Measuring Instruments Directive) for legal-for-trade weighing.

Key features included:

  • High-precision weighing – Scale interval of 0.5 g, with throughput up to 100 bottles per minute.

  • Compact conveyor design – 90 mm-wide belts running on 20 mm rollers ensure stable product handling.

  • EasySet servo-assisted feeding belts – Feeding belts collect products from the line, transfer them to the weighing conveyor, and manage rejection if necessary, without disrupting the packaging flow. Adjustable guides adapt to the exact product diameter, ensuring smooth movement and minimal friction.

  • Pneumatic ejector – Rapidly removes out-of-tolerance bottles into a collection bin.

  • Safety systems – Pressure switch monitors compressed air supply for consistent ejection. A photocell detects when the reject bin is full, alerting operators to empty it.


The Benefits

  • High accuracy – Reliable gram-level control for very light products.

  • Seamless integration – The system fits into existing lines without requiring modifications.

  • Operational reliability – Safety systems ensure uninterrupted performance and straightforward maintenance.

  • Smooth handling – Feeding belts stabilize cylindrical bottles during transfer, preventing vibration and ensuring weighing precision.

  • Efficiency – Close product pitch can be maintained, supporting high production speeds.
