In the field of dynamic product inspection OCS Checkweighers is seen as the benchmark for high throughput rates and utmost precision. The vast majority of components, especially those that are critical for precision and reliability, are manufactured in house. To meet the requirements of a wide range of applications there are entry-level scales, standard systems and high performance solutions for the best possible results in industrial production.
OCS offers cutting edge checkweighers for state-of-the-art inspection. That means: Highly precise weighing of large quantities at high throughput rates. Checkweighers manufactured by OCS can weigh all kinds of groceries, e.g. cheese, crisps, salads etc., as precisely as pharmaceutical products such as capsules, tablets and vials. This verifiable technology is weighing reliably up to 600 items per minute and has therefore gained an excellent, worldwide reputation. If necessary, the checkweighers and continuous flow weighing systems can be equipped with AVC (Active Vibration Compensation) Weigh Cell technology that provides highly precise and ultra fast weighing results even in tough environments that are not free of vibrations, caused for example by other machinery or forklift trucks. Thanks to a modular design the comprehensive product range of OCS Checkweighers offers numerous options for a maximum of flexibility to meet your specific requirements and related applications.
The camera based X-ray scanner serves not only contamination inspection but allows many additional quality checks such as distribution of ingredients, placement of product etc. Being more and more considered in the pharmaceutical industry, X-ray technology is becoming a common standard. The same counts for serialisation and Track & Trace. Here OCS Checkweighers offers a real alternative with massive benefits in the operation by their Traceable Quality System (TQS).
With regard to their PPMA presence OCS Checkweighers shows highest quality in reliable product inspection and Track & Trace. The following first class solutions can be seen at Booth B 40: We are looking forward to meeting you there!
HC-A series stands for fulfilling highest requirements
Highest performance for comprehensive requirements: HC-A checkweighers have been designed to meet the highest requirements by using modern, dynamic weighing technology. They offer an ideal mechanical platform for meeting the most sophisticated and demanding applications. Solutions fit to meet highest requirements.
The sturdy, stainless steel base frame ensures extremely accurate weighing results at highest speeds.
HC-M checkweighers – ideally suited for mid-range applications
Precision in the medium speed range: The HC-M, with a specification set between our EC-E and HC-A models, is ideally suited for demanding and mid-range checkweighing applications. Whether you wish to check for the current nominal weight, perform a completeness check of a package or classifying in to different weigh zones. The HC-M is right for you with higher weighing accuracies at both medium and higher conveyor speeds. The HC-M-WD is a checkweigher for frequent and intensive cleaning regimes to comply with the stringent hygiene requirements demanded by the food industry. It will also be on show at the PPMA.
EC-E – the perfect choice of up to 150 pieces per minute
Compact design, for simple precise checkweighing: With throughputs of up to 150 pieces per minute the EC-E is the perfect choice. It weighs precisely, records the individual weight and automatically rejects packages with incorrect weight. The design and the construction are optimised for these applications. Menu-driven user interface is clear and easy operation.
X-ray scanner for highest process security
Constantly increasing requirements for quality and safety of groceries are challenges today’s brands have to meet. Especially foreign objects (metal parts, glass, stones etc.) pose a significant threat on the health of the consumer. In addition, quality characteristics such as completeness, correct shape and correct filling level are getting more and more important.
To achieve highest quality and safety standards without impairing the productivity modern production processes require equally modern automatic monitoring systems. At the PPMA OCS Checkweighers presents an intelligent X-ray technology: The scanner SC 4000-D-C-S inspects all kinds of standing products such as cans or bottles. Various conveyor systems can be integrated. Due to a special design the scanner is also available as a curtain free solution for small and light products. It is the ideal choice to scan products in an upright position.
Traceable Quality System (TQS) for individual product serialisation and tracking
Counterfeit products in the pharmaceutical industry pose a severe health risk. The customer demands perfect reliability and absolute safety of the pharmaceutical industry with regards to the products they provide. To achieve this safety a retraceable product flow from the producer through the distribution chain and the retailer to the patient is indispensable. The solution is called Track & Trace, a system that uses a machine-readable code which is worldwide unique, functions as a serial number and guarantees a seamless tracing of each individual product.
The Traceable Quality System (TQS) is our special solution: We offer an intuitively usable system which treats coders as actuators and cameras as sensors and combines maximum flexibility with easy operation. The TQS-SP (shown at the PPMA) is a user-friendly complete solution for the serialisation of individual folded boxes in a minimum of space. The intuitive operation allows the generating of a label that will be sent at the same time to the printer and to the camera. Discover Simplicity!
