                        The calibration of  the                              More Information        Service Info C007
                     checkweighers using only the
                     “standard weight” might be
                     insufficient to guarantee performance
                     and accuracy. The checkweigher is
                     working while the conveyer is
                     moving, or dynamic weight, which is
                     different from a standard scale or
                     static weight.  Thus, using the
                     standard weight in calibration only
                     confirms  the  performance  and
                     accuracy according to the standards.
                     Therefore, other tests are necessary
                     to measure actual performance and
                     efficiency.
                         After calibration with a standard
                     weight according to the OMIL R51
                     of the International Organization of
                     Legal Metrology, it mentioned the
                     actual performance and accuracy.
                     In this method, one object is weighed
                     repeatedly on the conveyor belt at
                     the  actual  operating  speed  and
                     position.  The  number  of  time
                     references is from Figure 2, the
                     values of which are then used to
                     measure for accuracy.
                        The  machine at its best
                     performance will benefit the product
                     quality; therefore, the quality
                     assurance should be mindful of
                     calibration  and  selection  of
                     reputable  service  providers  with
                     good reliability, expertise, and ability
                     to  educate  the  operators.
                     Furthermore, an international
                     standard service level will ease the
                     operators in running the machine
                     and controlling the products’ quality
                     and  production  process  more
                     efficiently.
