Manter adds new separating, weighing machines

Manter has recently added two new machines to its product range, the Manter Separation Unit and the Manter CheckWeigher. The Separation Unit keeps fast moving packages separated as they approach the CheckWeigher, according to the company.

When packages from different packaging machines come together and have to pass over one CheckWeigher, it is sometimes not possible for the CheckWeigher to sufficiently differentiate between packages, Manter said in a press release. The alternative is to reduce the line speed to that of the slowest point, Manter said.

The Separation Unit optimizes the distance between the bags, which helps to increase the speed of the line, according to the company. The Manter Separation Unit can be supplied together with the Manter CheckWeigher or with third-party check weighers.
