How is the checkweigher cleaned?

In-line checkweigher has gradually become an indispensable part of modern industrial production, especially in the food and pharmaceutical industries. The auto weighing machine completes the measurement of the product weight during the conveying process and compares the measured weight with the pre-set range, and the control box issues instructions to reject products with unqualified weight or to distribute products with different weight ranges to the designated. The control box issues a command to reject products that do not pass the weight or to distribute products of different weight ranges to the designated area. How do I clean the checkweigher and what are the methods and procedures? Here are some answers.

Here is the content list:

• Clean the checkweigher's weighing table.

• Clean the printer (provided the checkweigher unit is equipped with a printer).

• The main part of the checkweigher is cleaned.

• Maintenance of the automatic checkweigher.

Clean the checkweigher's weighing table.

Disconnect the check weigher from the power supply and unplug the power cord. Moisten a gauze and wring it out, then dip it in a neutral cleaning solution (e.g. alcohol) and use it to clean the scale, the display filter, and the rest of the scale. Detachable conveyor belts can be washed with disinfectant jelly or warm water at approx. 60°C. Alternatively, the conveyor belt can be soaked in boiling water for 5 minutes or soaked in hypochlorite solution (200 ppm or less) (3 minutes or less) and then washed with water. Whichever of the above methods you use, please make sure that the washed conveyor belt is well drained before installing it on the conveyor belt to prevent moldy phenomena. Most importantly, clean the belt surface and the drum surface regularly, either with alcohol or neutral washing powder and then rinse with water afterward.

Clean the printer (provided the checkweigher unit is equipped with a printer).

Disconnect the power supply, open the plastic door on the right side of the scale and drag the printer out of the scale by holding the plum handle on the outside of the printer. Release the print head and gently wipe the print head with the special print head cleaning pen supplied with the scale, remove and wipe the pen cap to prevent the cleaning solution from evaporating, then wait two minutes for the cleaning solution to evaporate from the print head, then close the print head, push the printer back into the scale, close the plastic door and power up the checkweigher for clear printing.

The main part of the checkweigher is cleaned.

Firstly, the power supply must be cut off to prevent the risk of electric shock before you can start cleaning the conveyor weighing scale. Secondly, use a cloth moistened with water or a neutral detergent for cleaning. Thirdly, do not use thinners or organic solvents such as benzene - to prevent corrosion of the object and the body, which may affect its use. Fourthly, do not use metal brushes to prevent scratching of the object and the body of the checkweigher.

Maintenance of the automatic checkweigher.

If rusting is caused by the adhesion of cleaning chemicals and cannot be removed with neutral detergents, use a cleaning solution. Secondly, if contamination caused by touch or fingerprints cannot be completely removed with a neutral detergent or soap, wipe with a sponge or cloth containing an organic solvent (alcohol, petrol, acetone, etc.). In addition, rust is caused by iron powder or salt, etc. During checkweigher operation can be easily removed and wiped clean with a sponge or cloth containing neutral detergent or soapy water.
