Mettler Toledo colorWeight checkweighing coloured display

Manufacturers that use checkweighing as a solution for completeness control have fewer missing components and incomplete packages than those that do not. However, in manual checkweighing, operators have to read digits to check completeness, and errors are bound to occur.

ICS5 compact scales from Mettler Toledo with a colorWeight coloured display assist operators by speeding up the process and helping them to avoid these errors. Completeness checks ensure businesses provide their customers with the exact quantity of product they have ordered, ensuring customer satisfaction while optimising the production process.

The colorWeight display shows a green light when weight is in specification, and a red light when it is not. That means that operators no longer have to interpret numerical displays, and they can quickly determine whether a weight is a ‘go’ or ‘no go’.

An online simulation offers a trial of the colorWeight technology. Additionally, a value calculator demonstrates how much manufacturers could improve throughput, reduce errors and maximise uptime with the use of a compact scale with colorWeight display. The calculator uses actual data from a users’ process to show the real value of colorWeight in specific manufacturing scenarios.
