FAQ
How many kinds of checkweighers does TSC make?
Our line of checkweighers start with a scale conveyor 12” long x 4” wide belt, and weighs packages to within +/-1g or better. Our intermediate checkweigher offers a variety of conveyor sizes and capacities, and is usually used to weigh packages up to about 40 lbs. Heavy-duty checkweighers are built for weight ranges from 8 lbs. to 110 lbs. We can assist in selecting the right style of checkweigher to meet your specific application needs.
Are your checkweighers legal for trade?
Our line of scales are not legal for trade. An example of a legal for trade scale is a scale in the meat department of your grocery store. You order 1 lbs. of sliced turkey, and they weigh it on this scale, and charge you for whatever the actual weight is. Our in-motion checkweighers only verify package weight based upon parameters entered by the customer. Most cases the nominal weight is already printed on the package, so we only verify the package weight is within tolerance, and reject those that are not.
