This multihead weigher for cherry tomatoes incorporates a variety of specially designed features, to ensure gentle handling at every step.
Our cherry tomato weigher features:
- Feeder troughs – available either in linear or circular format – that ensure a smooth, gentle supply to maintain product quality
- Minimised drops from pool hopper to discharge chute and gently-angled transfer points, to reduce impact on the product
- Protective materials for all internal parts, to prevent damage to products upon surface contact
- Option to be part of a turnkey system, including feeders and tray fillers
The new Ishida RVE range is available in a wide choice of models – including 10, 14, 16 and 20 head models – together with a broad selection of radial troughs, hoppers (from 3 to 7 litres) and discharge chutes. This enables the weighers to be tailored to individual product requirements with models available for mono-, mixed product (handling up to four different products simultaneously) and multiple-outlet weighing, and from small to large target weights. Speeds are dependent on model and application and can reach 120 weighments per minute.
Key to the excellent performance of the new RVE weighers is the introduction of several advanced technology features from Ishida’s top-of-the-range RV multihead weighers, including programmable digital filtering and advanced automatic feeder adjustment. In addition, critical components such as loadcells and drive units are exclusively designed and manufactured by Ishida to ensure high performance standards are maintained.
An important benefit of the RVE range is that all models are pre-configured for the new generation of ‘smart’ factories and are available with a choice of packages incorporating Ishida’s pioneering Sentinel™ remote customer care software. This provides users with the options of automated daily reporting of production line data, remote interventions or a live performance monitoring service.
