Order Fulfillment and Distribution Applications

QMI checkweigh systems have several functions within the distribution process. A typical inline scale application will have a scanner that reads the individual parcel ID, record the shipping weight, then report this data to the manifest or host software. In applications requiring weight verification, the actual weights are compared to expected weights in the database. This weight is determined by the sum of weights of the items picked and associated with a tolerance (acceptable range of +/- the actual weight). Any exceptions that are outside of the tolerance are then diverted to a manual QC station for inspection.

Packaging and Batch Applications

Checkweighers are also used in many packaging and batch applications where each product is validated and anything that is over/under weight is rejected. This process does not require individual scanning to identify the product since each is the same. However, the option is still available to scan barcodes for serialized items, time/date stamp, or other unique identifying features a customer may want to track.

Food and Beverage, Washdown / Stainless Steel Checkweighers

QMI Services provides checkweigher systems for many food and beverage applications. Some systems require drip proof or full chemical cleaning. There are various levels of NEMA and IP ratings available. Contact us about these applications, as each is unique in scope and equipment.
