Case Study

Weighing and Grading Line in 8 Product Categories with 16 Outlets

A European food processor specialising in fresh and dried fruit required a weighing and grading solution capable of handling large volumes of chestnuts.

We achieved:

  • High throughput

  • Precision weighing

  • Gentle product handling

  • Improved hygiene

Box checkweighers are widely used in industries such as:

  • Food and beverage production

  • Pharmaceutical and medical packaging

  • Consumer goods and household products

  • Logistics and distribution

  • Chemical and industrial products

By automatically inspecting carton weights in real time, our checkweighers detect issues such as missing items, incorrect pack counts, or packaging errors before they leave your facility. Xact’s dynamic checkweighers operate without interrupting conveyor flow, rejecting any boxes that fall outside your defined weight range.

Key considerations when selecting a box checkweigher include the maximum product weight, carton dimensions, production line speed and integration with other inspection technologies.

Features of Box Checkweighers

Different types of box checkweighers are designed to handle various product sizes, throughput requirements and industrial environments.

Heavy-Duty Box Checkweighers

Heavy-duty systems are designed for large or heavy cartons, often weighing tens of kilograms. These checkweighers typically feature reinforced frames and larger conveyor belts to support heavy loads.

Typical applications include:

  • Bulk food cartons
  • Logistics and shipping cases
  • Industrial parts packaging
  • Large consumer goods shipments

Some box checkweighers are capable of handling weights of up to around 60kg, making them ideal for heavy carton inspection at the end of packaging lines.

Compact Carton Checkweighers

Not all boxed products are large. Many industries require systems capable of inspecting small to medium cartons such as pharmaceutical boxes, food cartons or cosmetics packaging.

Compact box checkweighers are commonly used for:

  • Packaged food cartons
  • Pharmaceutical secondary packaging
  • Cosmetic and personal care products
  • Household goods and retail packaging

These systems provide high accuracy while maintaining a compact footprint within the production line.

Inline Carton Inspection Systems

Most box checkweighers operate as inline dynamic weighing systems, allowing every box to be weighed while production continues at full speed. This ensures 100% inspection without slowing the packaging process.

In addition to weight verification, these systems may also:

  • Detect missing items inside cartons
  • Classify products by weight
  • Generate production data for quality control

Dynamic carton weighing is commonly used in many industries to ensure packaging consistency and reliability before products are shipped.

Key Features to Consider

Choosing the right box checkweigher requires evaluating both production requirements and machine capabilities.

  • High Weight Capacity
    Cartons and cases can vary significantly in weight. Heavy-duty checkweighers should support larger loads while maintaining consistent accuracy.

  • Stable Conveyor Systems
    Boxed products often have larger footprints and may be less stable on conveyors. Wide belts and robust frames help ensure stable weighing results.

  • Accurate Dynamic Weighing
    Advanced load cells allow box checkweighers to deliver accurate measurements even at higher line speeds.

  • Automatic Reject Systems
    Integrated reject mechanisms automatically remove non-compliant cartons from the line, preventing incorrect shipments.

  • Production Data and Traceability
    Many modern checkweighers can record weight data, production statistics and inspection results to support quality control and reporting.

  • Integration with Inspection Equipment
    Box checkweighers can often be combined with metal detectors, barcode scanners or vision systems to create a complete end-of-line inspection solution.

How to Choose the Right Box Checkweigher

Choosing a box checkweigher isn’t just about weight range. It needs to suit your product, keep up with your line speed, and work alongside the rest of your equipment without causing bottlenecks.

Our checkweighing systems help producers and packaging operations find the right fit for their setup. Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, the focus is on understanding how your line runs and recommending equipment that will perform reliably in that environment.

Each system is specified with your production in mind, from throughput and accuracy requirements through to how it integrates with existing processes. That upfront work helps avoid common issues like underperforming equipment or unnecessary downtime.

Support doesn’t stop at supply. Xact works with customers to make sure systems are correctly specified from the outset and continues to provide guidance as production needs evolve.

The goal is simple: a checkweighing solution that fits your line properly and keeps things moving.
