Comek weighing machine for biscuits: precision and delicacy for fragile products

In the packaging of biscuits and baked goods, weighing precision is essential. Equally important, however, is gentle handling, as the fragility of the product can affect its quality from the very first stages of the process.

To meet these needs, Comek has developed a weighing machine specifically designed for biscuits, engineered to ensure maximum accuracy while preserving product integrity, even for particularly delicate or lightweight references.

Linear multihead weigher CK12ST-LN-SG-45°

At the heart of the system is the linear multihead weigher model CK12ST-LN-SG-45°, capable of performing 25–30 weighings per minute.

This system has been specially designed to prevent product damage, ensuring a controlled and smooth flow of biscuits throughout the entire line.

Unlike traditional configurations, no pre-dosing phase is required—a deliberate technical choice that reduces product transfers and impacts.

In this way, each biscuit undergoes a single transfer within the system, minimizing shocks and drops that could compromise its shape.

Z-Step Conveyor for Product Transfer

To handle the transition from the weigher to the packaging machine, a Z-step conveyor has been developed — a solution designed to address space constraints within the customer’s facility.

This setup maintains the same level of operational efficiency while ensuring a smooth and progressive transfer from weighing to packaging — without shocks or vibrations — thus preserving the product’s integrity.

Even at this stage, attention is focused on gentle product handling, accompanying each biscuit through the process without bumps or abrupt movements

Advantages for biscuit producers

Designed to meet the needs of those working with fragile products, the Comek solution for biscuit weighing offers:

  • Gentle product handling: Thanks to the absence of pre-dosing and the use of a single weighing bucket, the risk of breakage is minimized.
  • Precision and consistency: The 6+6 head configuration ensures high and stable performance over time.
  • Production efficiency: With a throughput of 25–30 weighings per minute, the line is ideal for manufacturers requiring high volumes and continuous operation.
  • Smooth integration with packaging systems: The Z-step conveyor easily adapts to different types of packaging machines, ensuring compatibility and flexibility.

Customized solutions for biscuit producers

Comek designs each system starting from a detailed analysis of the product characteristics and production requirements.

Every line can be customized according to the required weight ranges and plant layout, with the goal of achieving an efficient, precise flow while preserving product integrity.
