Product inspection ensures quality control throughout all stages of the manufacturing process. If a production line is missing an inspection component, it can create consumer safety hazards and risks to the business. Checkweighing is an essential step in product inspection because it increases efficiency without decreasing quality.

Static checkweighers can be easily integrated into existing processes. A static checkweigher requires an operator to place an item on the scale and read the scale's display for under, acceptable or over weights. If the weight is not within an accepted range, the operator can set the item aside so it can be adjusted.

Checkweighers are used in a wide range of industries, such as food and beverage packing, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and logistics. Most often, checkweighers are used at the end of a production line, but their uses go beyond simply weighing products.

Possible uses for a checkweigher include both typical and statistical applications:

• Checking for under- and/or overweight products
• Classifying products into weight zones
• Ensuring product compliance with government regulations and standards
• Monitoring product line efficiency
• Checking for missing package components such as caps, lids, labels or product
• Providing feedback reports for process analysis and adjustment

Many applications require a checkweigher that can withstand potential shock loads and thorough cleaning procedures. The CW-90X is constructed of 304 stainless steel with an IP69K-rated load cell and indicator, making it ideal for use in sanitary processes. A rugged piezo keypad resists contact with sharp knife points while a membrane vent offers additional protection from moisture.
