For the automation of dosing and filling processes PENKO weight controllers are unbeatable. Our unique way of high speed measuring in conjunction with a high internal resolution guarantees the best results. Savings in raw materials and/or finished goods offer a fast return of investment. In addition, depending on the application, a turnkey pre-programmed version can be selected, alternatively, for a non-standard way of processing, a free programmable version is available.

When one of PENKO Engineering's clients ordered some of the newly-launched FLEX-LIW controllers for their potato chip production line recently, the intention was to install the instruments as 'black box' units inside sealed cubicles, hidden away from the operators.

In many applications the power is supplied by 12 or 24 V dc battery and not a main power supply. You will find examples in road traffic, internal transport, shipping, the offshore industry, hoists and transportable equipment. The fact that these applications are not connected to a main power supply does not mean that there is no need for weighing. For this reason, existing FLEX range is expanded to include a version which can accommodate voltages of between 9 and 24 V dc.

A key factor affecting any weighing system is the strategy adopted to cope with variant digital readings caused by A-D settling, signal interference or vibration, and for high-speed weighing experts PENKO Engineering, this is a crucial issue. With the continual demand for process speeds to increase to improve efficiency, the shorter dwell time available for accurate measurement prompted Penko's designers to look for a more effective method of fast signal processing.

By including the PENKO 960 and the PENKO 1020 Indicators into her product range, PENKO serves the complete market range, from standard, uncomplicated to complex weighing solutions. The 960 and 1020 Indicators are cut-rate options for your standard weighing requirements. In the event of complex weighing and dosing requirements, the FLEX series offers an effective solution.
