CompuWeigh Process Scales

This low-cost, low-maintenance scale is ideal for obtaining accurate, reliable continuous weighing of dry bulk materials in capacities from 0.5 - 90 tons per hour. Three standard sizes are available to handle a wide variety of materials from grain, flour, rice and screenings to plastic, coke and cement.

Accurate. Whether you need legal-for-trade weights, or to monitor production and inventory, this scale delivers 99.9% accuracy with full government compliance. The system is NTEP approved - for all shipping, receiving and in-process applications.

High-Speed. A superior tension load cell design and high-volume discharge gates provide fast cycling time of 10-15 seconds. For maximum throughput and continuous material flow the system can be supplied with upper and lower hoppers.

Simple. No special training is required to operate the system. The scale is shipped completely assembled, pre-tested and ready for installation for long, trouble-free service. Removable doors provide easy access for testing and maintenance.

Reliable. Precision design and fabrication allow 24-hour/day performance even in the harshest environments. The fully enclosed design ensures dust-tight operation and is virtually maintenance-free. Weigh hopper, gates and pneumatic cylinders are made of stainless steel for durability. Gate speed controls provide for smooth operation.

The system can be supplied as a stand-alone weigh hopper or with upper and lower hoppers to increase throughput and maintain a continuous flow of material. The system can be easily modified to handle special applications.
