Multihead Weighers & Distribution

SE multihead weighers are entry-level weighing machines typically used for dry applications including snacks, confectionery, biscuits and pasta. These machines provide reliable automation and increased operating speeds during the weighing process.

Benefits of the SE Series:

• Reductions in waste and giveaway
• Simple set-up and operation
• Option of pre-set parameters
• Minimal downtime for cleaning and maintenance
• Improved productivity and efficiency
• Rapid return on investment

Ishida’s range of hard-working multihead weighers represent outstanding value, with accuracy and speed that outperform most ‘top-of-the-range’ competitor weighing machine models.

As global demand for broader applications has grown, so has our range of solutions. This is achieved due to the flexible specification of 10, 14, 16 and 20* head options, 1.5, 3, 5 or 7 hopper sizes – combined with a selection of feeder, hopper, discharge or timing hopper designs. These are all available with a large range of contact parts that are available in different materials (to handle different levels of product flow characteristics).

The RVE-series multihead weighers also offers:

• Improved weighing accuracy that leads to more packs per kg of product
• Fast calculation time, delivering more packs per shift
• Self-tuning vibration system to optimise product flow
• Simple, tool-free cleaning that cuts weighing machine downtime
• Simple training, with an easy-to-learn operator interface
• A range of ‘bolt-on’ options for specific needs
• Pre-configured for Smart Factories with Sentinel packs on options

The latest generation of Ishida’s world-class multihead weighers combines fast and accurate weighing with a robust design, that facilitates harsh cleaning regimes and withstands the harsher impact of frozen products.

The RV waterproof range complies with the highest industry standards and has been independently awarded IP69K certification, making it ideal for packing lines that process fresh, chilled and frozen food products.

Faster: The RV multihead has the speed to out-perform in production as well as during changeovers.

Tougher: The RV main body, components and seals have been designed for exceptional resistance to wear and to water ingress. Independently tested to a maximum IP69K dustproof and waterproof rating, the RV waterproof models are more resistant than ever before.

Smarter: Latest touchscreen technology for enhanced user-friendliness, enhanced calculation software and remote connection capability.

Greener: Three power modes that can reduce power consumption by up to 20% and compliance with the strictest food grade material standards.

This machine pushes new boundaries of competitive performance – from 10 heads up to a configuration of 32 heads.

Ishida’s multi-purpose screw feeder multihead weigher is ideal for a wide range of products which cannot be moved efficiently by vibration and dependence on gravity alone. Requiring no manual infeed supervision, this screw feeder weigher is an excellent choice for operations where manpower is relatively expensive or in short supply.

• Full automation, thanks to powerful but gentle coreless screws 
• Scraper gates prevent product from sticking during hopper draining 
• Minimises giveaway (typically <1%), maximises the yield of packed product
• Robust, sterilizable resin hoppers and waterproof (IP 65), easy-wash-down design 

If your volumes are high but changeovers are less frequent, the high performance Ishida screw feeder weighing machine incorporates all the technological advances of the Ishida R-series multihead weigher to increase speed and yield for difficult-to-move products.

These advances mean the weigher is capable of reaching the same speeds as free-flowing product, with unrivalled efficiency and reliability when selecting and verifying weight combinations of products.

• Powerful but gentle coreless screw feeders relentlessly keep product in motion 
• Pool hoppers and load cells ensure product is processed efficiently 
• Typical speeds of 80-100 weighments per minute for typically movement-resistant products 
• 2l-volume, scraper type, anti-stick hoppers capable of handling boned or filleted products 
• Minimised giveaway for maximised yield of packed product 
• Robust, stainless steel structure and waterproof (IP 66), easy-to-wash design

Excellent for mix-weighing and designed for low target weight applications, the layout of these compact weighers offers significant advantages when handling gentle products with its simple, space-saving infeed arrangement.

Ishida linear multihead weighers offer:

Superior product flow Our linear weighers excel in handling free-flowing products that have a tendency to “run away.”

High speed, high accuracy The two weigh hoppers to each weigh head, combined with superior flow control, enables high speeds and high accuracy, leading to reduced giveaway.

Gentle handling of fragile products Product drop distances are kept low to minimise breakage.

High performance in a small space These linear weighers are very compact in design and do not require complex infeed arrangements.

Maintainable structure for easy operation Simple and intuitive user interface and contact parts can be removed without tools for quick cleaning.
