Position: Weigh hopper systems GS3000 from Gainco, Inc. offer heightened versatility and control for poultry batching, weighing and distributing applications.
Completely engineered and built in the USA, they provide a comprehensive range of hardware and software configurations that can be applied easily to individual processing requirements.
Designed and onstructed in stainless steel for rugged, dependable performance, weighing accuracy, and user-friendly interfaces, Gainco weigh hopper systems are used for diverse poultry industry applications, such as batching into vats or totes, weighing/distributing fronts to multiple deboners, and continuous weighing of product portions into or out of a specific process.
The equipment can accommodate standard or bi-directional weigh hopper capacities ranging from 10 lbs. to 500 lbs.
Other Gainco hopper system features include a battery-backed memory for recording the total number of dumps, the total weight, and all setup parameters. Versatile batching controllers provide ease and flexibility in program setup and batching operation, while "auto-zero" software automatically adjusts for any product accumulation on the hopper surfaces, thereby assuring greater weighing accuracy.
If desired, a host PC can be connected to multiple hopper systems for centralized reporting, setup control, and yield analysis.
With Gainco's weigh hopper systems, numerous configurations are allowable, including a variety of distribution conveyors, ceiling or floor-mounted installation options, product in-feed conveyors managed by the controller on/off output signal, as well as buffer hoppers mounted over the weigh hoppers to ensure uninterrupted product flow.
Also available is Gainco's bi-directional weighing hopper model, which allows fully programmable alternate filling of two different sized containers (or containers of the same size) automatically, accurately, and with minimal operator involvement.
