The project team at Ishida Europe has devised what is claimed to be Europe’s fastest multihead weighing and packing line with a turnkey installation. This includes a 28 head model from the company’s latest generation RV-Series, currently achieving 400 packs a minute at leading fruit snacks manufacturer Stream Foods.
“We discussed our requirements with a number of multihead weigher manufacturers and our initial specification was for 200 packs per minute, but Ishida was quickly able to demonstrate that it could offer double this speed with high levels of accuracy,” explains engineering manager Peter Green.
