Choosing the Right Multihead Weigher: 5 Reasons to Opt for a 10-Head System

    Selecting the right multihead weigher for your production line is a critical decision that impacts efficiency, accuracy, and bottom line—especially when dealing with small-sized granular, block, or sheet products (e.g., herbal medicine pieces, pistachios, hardware parts). While headcount options vary, UUPAC's 10-head computer combination scale (0.5–0.8L hopper capacity) stands out as the "sweet spot" for small-to-medium operations. It’s not just a "multihead weigher"—it’s engineered to solve your specific pain points (wasteful overgive, slow throughput, hard-to-clean equipment) with industrial-grade reliability.

    Here are 5 unignorable reasons to choose it.

1. The Perfect Balance of Speed, Accuracy, and Cost

    A 10-head weigher hits the sweet spot between entry-level models and over-engineered high-speed systems—and UUPAC’s version takes this balance further. Unlike basic 6/8-head scales that sacrifice speed for cost, our 10-head system delivers:

• Unbeatable accuracy: ±0.1g precision (min scale interval 0.1g), far exceeding industry averages (typically ±0.5-1g), directly cutting down product giveaway and raw material waste—critical for high-value items like herbal medicine or premium nuts.
• Impressive throughput: 60 packages per minute (60p/M), fast enough to keep up with most small-to-medium production lines without the price tag of a 14/16-head system.
• Cost-effective footprint: At 1370(L)*1060(W)*1105(H)mm, it’s compact enough for tight workshops, while weighing just 220-240kg (depending on hopper size) for easy installation.

2. Unmatched Versatility: 0.5/0.8L Hoppers for Food, Medicine, Hardware & More

    The 0.5–0.8L hopper capacity isn’t just a number—it’s tailored to diverse products across industries. UUPAC’s 10-head weigher handles:

• Food & Snacks: Pistachios, candy, coffee beans, chocolate beans (0.5L hopper: 5-200g range), and frozen peas/corn (moisture-resistant design).
• Medicine: Herbal medicine pieces, small tablets (hygienic, easy-to-clean hoppers meet pharma standards).
• Industrial & Hardware: Small screws, nuts, plastic pellets, chemical granules (0.8L hopper: 5-300g range, anti-noise PVC contact parts prevent product damage).

3. Enhanced Accuracy: Advanced Combination Logic + High-Grade Components

Precision isn’t just about "more heads"—it’s about what’s inside. UUPAC’s 10-head weigher uses:

• Special high-precision load cells: Ensures consistent readings even for lightweight or dense products.
• Professional A/D card: Offers exceptional stability and interchangeability, reducing downtime from component failures.
• Smart combination algorithm: Analyzes hundreds of weight combinations in milliseconds to find the closest match to your target—paired with multi-segment weight calibration, it maintains ±0.1g accuracy cycle after cycle.

     For premium or high-cost products (e.g., organic snacks, medical herbs), this precision isn’t a "nice-to-have"—it’s a profit protector.

4. Designed for Reliability: IP65 Waterproof + Easy Maintenance

    Industrial equipment should work for you, not against you. UUPAC’s 10-head weigher is built for 24/7 operation with:

• IP65 waterproof rating: Dustproof and water-resistant, making it safe for washdowns—critical for food/medicine production (all hoppers can stay open for thorough cleaning).
• Modular electronic system: Expands functions or repairs at low cost, no need to replace the entire unit.
• Siemens PLC control system: Ensures reliable performance with minimal glitches, plus a program recovery function to reduce operation failures.
• User-friendly design: 7''/10'' touchscreen with a help menu and 99 program storage—quick product changeovers, no technical expertise required.

     Less downtime, easier cleaning, and lower maintenance costs—this is "set-it-and-forget-it" efficiency.

5. Seamless Integration + Future-Proofing

    Investing in equipment means planning for growth. UUPAC’s 10-head weigher:

• Integrates easily: Works with existing baggers, VFFS machines, and conveyors—no need to overhaul your production line.
• Future-ready features: HMI program with authority management (prevent accidental settings changes) and USB-upgradable software—adapt to new products or regulations without buying a new scale.

    It’s not just a "current solution"—it’s a scale that grows with your business.

Conclusion: Is UUPAC’s 10-Head Weigher Right for You?

If you’re tired of:

• Wasting money on product giveaway (from inaccurate scales);
• Losing time to slow throughput or complicated cleaning;
• Struggling with one-size-fits-all scales that don’t fit your products (e.g., too-small hoppers for hardware, not hygienic enough for food);

    Then UUPAC’s 10-Head 0.5/0.8L Computer Weigher is the balanced, intelligent choice. It delivers the core benefits of multihead weighing—less waste, faster speed, consistent results—with UUPAC’s industrial-grade quality (220-240kg gross weight, 220V 50/60Hz power supply) and product-specific design.
