Box Filling Station
Box Fill Station with Integrated Bench Scale for Ground Meat Processing
In automated meat processing environments, automated box filling stations must deliver consistent, accurate weights to ensure efficiency and regulatory compliance. To meet the need for precise portion control, the ANYLOAD TNS stainless steel bench scale was integrated directly into the station, serving as a fully sanitary scale that provides live feedback during filling operations.
Challenge
- Accurate Live Weighing: The system must deliver precise weight readings during dynamic filling of the box with solid content, maximizing control over the final product weight.
- Wash-down Compatibility: Operating in a food processing environment requires IP-rated components and stainless steel surfaces to meet sanitation requirements.
- Weigh Stability During Vibration: The filling process of solids introduces vibrations that the scale must reject to maintain stable readings even under light disturbances.
- Integration with Automation: The scale must provide rapid weight feedback compatible with automation systems, allowing proper integration of box changeovers when the target weights are reached.
Solution
- The ANYLOAD TNS stainless steel bench scale was chosen for its footprint, IP67 washdown protection, and stable weight response on all corners of the scale.
- The scale is mounted directly on the boxing platform, allowing continuous feedback as the box is continuously filled with ground mat from the conveyor chute above.
- Real-time digital readout allows operators to visually track fill weights and stop the conveyor or adjust fill timing as needed without greatly affecting the process line.
- Integration with the box fill system allows use of feedback logic, leading to semi or fully automatic batching if desired, increasing efficiency and throughput.
Conclusion
The integration of ANYLOAD’s TNS bench scale into the box filling station supports fast, hygienic, and accurate filling of ground meat into shipping boxes. The compact and industrial design make it a reliable solution for demanding and regulated food production environments.
