The Spee-Dee Evolution PLC-based checkweigher includes a communications package that provides access to data that can be downloaded via Ethernet IP, Modbus TCP/IP, USB and other methods. Capable of being used as a standalone unit or integrated with Spee-Dee auger, cup and rotary fillers or existing production equipment on the plant floor, the unit weighs packages via electromagnetic force restoration technology. It has a 3-leg design; a standard 7-in., full-color HMI display; an anodized aluminum or stainless steel base; and no electrical cabinet. The checkweigher is intended for primary packages, such as bags, pouches, canisters, jugs and jars.
