Ishida freshens up weighing technology

Ishida Europe, one of the world's leading suppliers of complete weighing and packing line solutions has launched its new Fresh Food Weigher series.

The weighers utilise the combination weighing principle (once the exclusive domain of dry and frozen foods) and apply it to sticky products. The new range gives an increase in weighing accuracy and speed, while reducing product giveaway and waste.

Neil Giles, Ishida Europe's marketing manager said: “Ishida has worked in partnership with customers to understand their requirements and develop a product that can deliver a genuine performance that's essential in today's market. Smaller production runs and fast and frequent product changeovers are the norm, so we've made the fresh food weigher easy to operate and clean to minimise downtime. Operating with high accuracy, speed and consistency, processors and packers throughout the industry stand to gain real commercial benefits from this innovation.”
