Multihead weighers

2.5G multihead weigher

The 2.5G multihead weigher is the best value for money on the market for dry, free-flowing products: sweets, snacks, nuts, wrapped products or biscuits. Four models, from 8 to 20 heads, cover 45 to 100 discharges per minute and are mounted on the vertical packaging machine to dose each bag accurately. The M10 with 0.8 L hoppers (MC10-0.8) weighs 10 to 1,000 g per discharge, with two levels of hoppers, IP66 protection and up to 99 recipes.

Sweets, snacks, nuts, wrapped products, biscuits and, in general, any dry product that flows well by vibration.

03

Four sizes to match your output

From the 8 heads and 45 discharges per minute of the M8 to the 20 heads and 100 discharges per minute of the M20.

04

Weighing accuracy

Interchangeable buckets with different volumes and surface treatments depending on the product.

06

Easy to use

Large (10"), intuitive touch screen for ease of use.

How it works

  1. Infeed

    The product reaches the top cone and is distributed by vibration among the chutes that feed the hoppers.

  2. Weighing

    Each hopper weighs its portion with an anti-vibration load cell.

  3. Combination

    The software finds the combination of hoppers whose total comes closest to the target weight.

  4. Discharge

    The selected hoppers discharge together through the funnel into the vertical packaging machine, up to 100 times per minute.

Frequently asked questions

What products is the 2.5G weigher designed for?

For dry, free-flowing products such as sweets, snacks, nuts, wrapped products or biscuits.

What speed does it reach?

From 45 discharges per minute on the M8 to 100 on the M20. The M10 reaches 60 and the M14 75. The actual figure depends on the product and the target weight.

What is the difference between the four models?

The number of heads and the speed. The M8 has 8 heads, the M10 10, the M14 14 and the M20 20. More heads means more possible combinations and more discharges per minute.

What hopper volume can I choose?

It depends on the model, from 0.5 L up to 5.5 L. The M10 and M14 accept six different volumes, the M20 two (1.3 and 2.5 L) and the M8 one (1.3 L). The buckets are changed to suit the product.

How does it differ from the 4G weigher?

The 2.5G is the best-value option for dry products. The 4G is designed for very high speeds, corrosive products and more advanced software.

Which packaging machine is it combined with?

It is mounted on a vertical packaging machine, which forms the bag and receives each discharge from the weigher. It can also feed other packaging lines.

What weighing range does the M10 with 0.8 L hoppers have?

The MC10-0.8 weighs 10 to 1,000 g per discharge, with products up to 38 mm long and up to 60 discharges per minute. It has IP66 protection and stores up to 99 recipes.

What happens if a hopper fails or is overloaded?

On the MC10-0.8 a faulty hopper is disabled and the weigher keeps working without stops. If a hopper is overloaded, it empties itself; the overweight alarm is standard.
