Thompson Scale’s model 4693 Heavy-Duty Checkweigher is designed for industrial and institutional packaging applications, with weight ranges from 1 lb to 500 lbs. Weigh station conveyors range from 4' long up to 5' long and run at speeds up to 220 feet per minute. The checkweigher’s production rate of up to 50 units per minute meets the weight requirements of most industrial bag and box products.

This version of the checkweigher is unique because of its ability to weigh accurately at angles up to plus or minus 12 degrees. Its pop-up reject mechanism allows for quick and easy rejection of off-spec items. It also features an internally controlled pacing conveyor to ensure properly spaced packages across the scale for precise weighing.

This checkweigher is a simple, easy to use, rugged, yet highly accurate production scale. Although the 4693 Heavy-Duty Checkweigher is specifically designed for harsh, abusive, dirty environments commonly found in the cement, concrete, soil, and bark industries; it remains extremely accurate and dependable. Users in the chemical, starch, flour, and salt industries can also rely on this checkweigher for their quality control by weight.

The 4693 Heavy-Duty Checkweigher is designed for heavy products in many shapes or sizes. Items compatible with the 4693 include anything from bagged product, to boxes, cartons, and pails. A variety of weigh station conveyors are available to meet the specific needs of each application.
