Weighing and Foreign Object Control in Challenging Conditions

In industries that require precise measurements, weighing is a critical process. However, ensuring accurate measurements can be challenging in environments where foreign objects are present. This blog will explore the importance of weighing and foreign object control in challenging conditions, and how businesses can achieve accurate measurements while maintaining safety. In Australia, many businesses are turning to NWI Group to offer quality solutions from the most reliable brands, such as Minebea Intec.

The importance of accurate weighing in challenging conditions

In challenging conditions, such as uneven surfaces, extreme temperatures, and high humidity, achieving accurate measurements can be difficult. These conditions are often found in industries such as mining, agriculture, manufacturing and many more. However, precision is also of vital importance in laboratories, as is foreign object controls.

Inaccurate measurements can result in product waste, production delays, increased costs, contaminated samples and much more. Perhaps even more importantly though, most industries have legal requirements for weighing equipment to meet certain accuracy standards.

Minebea Intec offers a range of solutions, such as checkweighers, industrial scales, weighing terminals and metal detectors. With the help of NWI, you can set up the perfect system for both controlling foreign objects and ensuring precision weighing.

The challenges of foreign object control

Foreign objects, such as rocks, metal fragments, and debris, can significantly impact weighing accuracy. These objects can also damage equipment, cause safety hazards, and put the legitimacy of scientific research at risk. Additionally, foreign objects can contaminate products and lead to costly recalls.

The reality is, not every environment can be as sterile as a laboratory or medical facility. For example, while many food manufacturers have strict hygiene standards, their facilities are still industrial in nature. As a result, specific safeguards need to be in place to reduce the risk of foreign objects. The Vistus® RS Free Fall Metal Detector from Minebea Intec is one such device that can detect even the slightest presence of metallic partials during production flow.
