MODE OF OPERATION
The portioned slices or compartments are transferred from the GMS 400, GMS 520, or GMS 1000 to the optional feed belt. From there, they are automatically transported over the portion scale and weighed.
Two toggle switches connected in series sort the weighed portions into good, under, and overweight categories. When the portion reaches the correct weight, it is directed to the lowest level and transported further to the thermoformer via a line system, where it is manually inserted.
If a portion is under or overweight, it is ejected to the first or second level and transported to the rework stations. From there, operators can rework the portions and weigh them manually – LED displays indicate whether the portion has reached the correct weight. Subsequently, they are reintegrated onto the product belt of the properly weighted slices, which are then conveyed to the packaging machine.
