Used Multihead Weighers in Australia

Overview

Multihead weighers are high-speed precision machines that use multiple weighing heads to accurately dose products into bags, trays, or containers. Common in food and snack lines, they handle granular, particulate and some fragile items with fast cycle times and minimal giveaway. Models differ by head count, capacity and feeding method and are usually paired with feeders, conveyors and baggers for a complete packaging line.
