Weighing technology for tube filling machines

Successful collaboration between IWK Verpackungstechnik and WIPOTEC-OCS

IWK Verpackungstechnik GmbH from Stutensee near Karlsruhe is well known for solutions in the packaging sector for pharmaceutical and cosmetic products. This includes tube filling machines and cartoners as well as complete packaging lines.

They found the perfect solution for integrating the weighing technology in IWK machines. This is crucial to the quality assurance of products manufactured and to plant productivity overall. The very accurate dosing of each individual tube required during the filling process is reliably checked and controlled by high precision checkweighers. All IWK systems use weighing technology from Kaiserslautern-based WIPOTEC-OCS.
