MULTIPOND - TU 01 Serie | Mehrkopfwaage | Kombinationswaage


 


new + unique

The TU 01 is based on the proven concept of linear weighers, but has been modified for applications requiring high flexibility/mobility and very short cleaning cycles. The weighing system therefore consists of only four product leading parts (feeding tray, dosing tray, dosing bucket, weigh bucket) and is designed to be mounted on a caster wheel frame.

The dosing tray and its vibratory conveyor drive are installed on a pre-weigher, allowing for precise control of the product flow from the feeding tray into the dosing tray. The feeding tray and drive can also be installed on a pre-weigher, in order to control the product flow from the optional bulk feeder into the feeding tray. This design approach allows for tight control of the conveying properties, and therefore the product flow, through the entire, cascade type, tray arrangement. A fact that leads to the product being evenly distributed in the trays, which is a key pre-requisite for most accurate target weights.

Power supplies, controls and data processing devices are hosted in a central Control Unit (TUC), which can be connected with up to 10 Topping Unit Modules (TU 01).




Standard features of the TU 01 Series
  • Compact, dust and water-repellent design, for use in wash down environments
  • Feeding and dosing tray drives integrated into machine body, therefore well protected against environmental influences
  • Dehumidifier in weigher housing drains condensation moisture
  • Frequency adjusted vibratory drives ensure ideal product conveying characteristics
  • Trays and their conveyor drives mounted on preweighers, to allow for control of product flow throughout the entire weighing system
  • Temperature compensated strain gauge load cells, with integrated calibration weight for automated calibration, ensure high precision and controlled availability
  • Automated, programmable, zeroing sequence allows to account for product residuals in the weigh buckets
  • Compact, modular, control system including:
    – 32-bit-technology
    – self diagnostic system
    – extensive help text
  • Various, self optimizing trending routines
  • Programs can be saved locally and/or on memory cards
  • Flexible synchronisation options to suit a wide range of packaging machines
  • Statistical evaluation according to European Weights & Measures legislation
  • Operator interface – 12" TFT colour display with touch screen



Applications:
  • Weighs and applies single components for, e.g.:
    • Ready Meals
      – Gourmet Salads
      – Pizza
      – Sandwiches
      – Seafood Salad
    • Bulk Goods
      – Cereals
      – Pellets
      – Pills



Topping Unit (TU) main advantages:
  • Limited amount of product leading parts for simple, fast cleaning after product change
  • Mobile design supports frequent repositioning
  • Modular and expandable – can be adopted to varying production demands
  • Automated product flow control ensures even product distribution, for most precise weighing results
  • Simple, menu driven, programming of up to ten TU 01 modules from one central Control Unit (TUC)
  • Can be connected with other MULTIPOND weighing systems
