Weight controllers are weight indicators with integrated control functionality for the automation of weighing processes. Minebea Intec offers two weight controllers which are freely programmable (IEC61131 programming language) or can be equipped with the following predefined software applications:
- BASIC – for simple weighing applications
- IBC – for single-component filling applications
- BATCH – for complex manual and/or automatic batching applications
- ProRecipe XT® – for manual recipe and dispensing applications (Maxxis 5 only)
- COUNT – for parts counting and manual checkweighing applications (Maxxis 5 only)
- Truck – for truck scale applications (Maxxis 5 only)
The Maxxis 5 with its truck weighing application is capable of controlling the entire weighing process, including predefined processes for:
- First and second weighing
- Controlling traffic lights and barriers
- Controlling dosing processes for truck loading
Material- and order-specific receipts, recipe reports, usage logs and production statistics can be printed out or exported to a PC.
The process controller Maxxis 5 is also suitable for use with tandem scales. In this case, 2 weighing platforms are connected and the combined weight value is calculated.
