What challenges do the industries with strict hygiene standards face?

Key challenges in the food, chemical, cosmetic, healthcare and pharmaceutical industries include avoiding cross-contamination, maintaining strict microbiological control, performing frequent instrument cleaning procedures and ensuring full compliance with restrictive regulations in order to ensure maximum product safety.

What precautions should be taken to prevent contamination of scales?

To avoid contamination of processed products, it is essential to use weighing instruments designed according to hygienic and sanitary criteria. These include the selection of suitable construction materials, open design to facilitate cleaning and a structure that prevents the accumulation of materials and liquids.

Proper scale installation and the implementation of proper cleaning and maintenance procedures are equally crucial to prevent contamination.

What distinguishes Dini Argeo's HYGIENIX weighing systems from other scales?

The core principles by which our HYGIENX weighing systems are designed include:

• Use of appropriate corrosion-resistant materials, such as AISI 316 stainless steel.
• Open and easily accessible structure with no gaps or hollow areas to prevent the accumulation of liquids and contaminants.
• Construction with continuous welds to prevent possible buildup and subsequent contamination.
• Special finishes, which give minimal surface roughness to prevent the accumulation of microorganisms.
• The resistance to high-temperature and high-pressure washing.
• These HCV EU-certified systems meet the most strict hygiene regulations for maximum product safety in all sensitive applications.

What are the advantages of weighing systems for healthcare environments over traditional solutions?

All of our weighing systems are designed to provide reliable accuracy, easy cleaning, durable construction and state-of-the-art features to meet market needs. The HYGIENX line, in particular, is distinguished by its special finishes, corrosion resistance and strict compliance with hygienic regulations. These factors contribute significantly to preserving product quality and ensuring safety in healthcare, food, chemical, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic environments, and more generally, where it is necessary for work environments to remain sterile and clean.

What is the standard procedure for cleaning bench scales in areas with strict hygiene standards?

The practice of basic cleaning involves consulting the operating instructions, turning off the scale, cleaning the surrounding area, removing the loading surface, cleaning the base and weight indicator, cleaning the loading surface, then resetting the scale and, if needed, leveling it, which ensures optimal operation.
