ALPHA CHECKWEIGHERS by All-Fill
Alpha Checkweighers specializes in the design and manufacturing of a comprehensive range of online, in production weighing and weight control equipment. Versatility is Alpha’s strength, our checkweighers can be adapted to handle virtually every package, bag, carton, box and bottle. Standard models are available for the quickest deliveries in the industry. Alpha never turns away an opportunity to install our trusted, quality instruments no matter what the environment. System integration is very simple for Alpha given its relative product lines of All-Fill and Avatar. In addition, integration with OEM metal detectors is common and highly encouraged when constructing production lines where quality and safety are held in high regard.
MODEL EW-8
The Model EW-8 is Alpha Checkweigher’s economical solution for users and applications that may be new or unfamiliar with the advantages of checkweighing on new or existing filling, feeding, inspection, or other packaging lines. Based on the field-proven line of Alpha Checkweighers, the EW-8 offers the same versatility and reliability as other Alpha models.
The EW-8 consists of a sturdy, tubular frame with a 5” U-channel main support plate that serves as a mounting location for the three belt-driven conveyors and the digital strain gage loadcell. A slope front control console houses the electronics and the color touch screen Human Machine Interface (HMI.) Reject options include Air Blast, Pusher, or Bopper to remove unacceptable weight packages from production.
The EW-8 is operated and controlled from a series of full color, easy to read and use screens on the front mounted touch screen panel. Dedicated screens are provided for all major functions and operations for testing, set up, calibrating, and operating the checkweigher.

MODEL HP-14
The Alpha HP Series offers several standard features including electromagnetic force compensation weighing technology and an air blast or pusher reject device. The Alpha HP-14 is ideal for accurately weighing packages and containers of up to 4 lbs, 12 inches in length, and 8 inches in width. They can operate at speeds of up to 300 packages per minute with an accuracy of +/- 0.100 grams.
Pouches, bags, and other unsupported or irregularly shaped packages pose a problem to conventional checkweighers that use chains or bands as a conveying medium. Not so to the Alpha HP-14, whose weigh table is rigidly constructed and whose weigh table belt, pulleys, and gearhead drive motor are all balanced to ensure accurate, reliable weighing of flexible packages. A continuous, programmable variable speed conveyor provides constant torque.
All weighing operations are controlled by the CW700 checkweighing systems, which is easy to integrate with date networks. The system features a user-friendly, graphical touch screen and a structured menu and selection designs for all operating functions. Up to 25 different set-ups can be entered for each size, weight, container, or package. There are no confusing programming steps when changing products, sizes, or weights. An exclusive automatic calibration feature determines all relevant operating parameters for optimum accuracy and checkweighing efficiency. For at-a-glance updates, the Alpha HP-14 features a large character weight display and easy-to-see tower lights.

MODEL HW-15
The Alpha Model HW-15 Checkweigher is designed for fast, accurate weight control of cases, bulk bagged products, corrugated boxes, or other large, heavy containers. It consists of a versatile strain gauge weightable system mounted on a sturdy, welded, all-steel frame. A continuous, non-conveyor belt moves packages for instant weighing. The solid, extruded polyester resin, smooth finish belt wears better, cleans up faster, and lasts longer.
The innovative drive system used in the Model HW-15 provides an efficient, low noise method of transporting packages over the weighing area of the checkweigher. Motor, gearbox, and bearings are sealed within the shell of the roller operating in a continuous oil bath. Separate drive and components, such as chains, drive belts, idlers, couplings, and pulleys are eliminated. Maintenance and servicing is limited to replacing lubrication oil every 10,000 hours of service (up to 5 years). Since nothing rotates except the drive roller, the possibility of injuries and accidents is reduced.
