Hastamat CP Series Multihead Weigher
Hastamat's scalable combination weigher, with up to 24 weighing hoppers and up to 240 weighing procedures per minute.
This is the machine that stops product leaving your building for free.
A multihead weigher weighs first and chooses second. Product spreads across a distribution cone into a ring of hoppers, each hopper weighs what it caught, and the controller searches those live weights for the combination closest to target without going under. Nothing is estimated, so nothing needs a safety margin.
Why hopper count shows up on your margin
More hoppers means more combinations, and more combinations means a tighter fit to target. The CP Series scales to up to 24 weighing hoppers and up to 240 weighing procedures per minute, so it is sized to the accuracy your packs need and the rate your line runs.
How a multihead weigher reduces giveaway works through the arithmetic on your own numbers.

How Product Shape Affects Packaging Machine Design
Dennis Feldbusch and Thomas Bornemann, Hastamat
Thomas Bornemann says a machine designed to keep stick products oriented can also run bulk products, but a machine bought for bulk products cannot be used for stick-shaped products.
