Products and Services


 

Continuous (In-Motion) Weighers

back to top

Inmotion Weighbridges
Inmotion weighbridges are tipped to be the next big thing in the transport, quarrying, and waste management industries with a small site footprint, economical pricing, and as little as +/-1% accuracy over gross vehicle mass. The inmotion weighbridges installed by QWM also have the National Measurement Institute (NMI) Approval, meaning the inmotion weighbridges can be used for trade (for buying and selling product).

Belt Weighers
Belt weighers are a type of continuous weigher ideal for weighing product as it travels over a conveyor belt. Product weight and conveyor belt speed are considered to calculate a product weight, typically in tonnes per hour.

Digital Weight Indicators
QWM can supply all major brands of digital weighing indicators and many less known brands.

In-motion Check Weighers
In-motion check weighers are ideal for the end of food (and other) processing lines. Their relative inexpensiveness means they are a cost effective means of controlling weight violations within product packaging.

In-Motion Weighing
Tipped to be the "next big thing" in weighing vehicles, In-motion Weighing Systems enable vehicles to remian in-motion during weighing.

 

General Weighing

Digital Weight Indicators
QWM can supply all major brands of digital weighing indicators and many less known brands.

Loadcells and Weight Transducers
QWM can supply all major brands, capacities and types of loadcells for measuring mass, weight and force.

Hopper Weighing Systems
Almost any existing hopper, tank or storage bin can be converted to a weigh hopper or weigh bin. Loadcell kits are available and are very easy to install.

Scales
QWM supplies a comprehensive range of scales, from small capacity lab balances and parcel scales, to large platform scales and vehicle weighers.

Lab Scales
Laboratory balances, sometimes referred to as Mettler balances, or simply lab scales, are composed of three sub-groups of scales: analytical balances for really high accuracy, precision balances for most lab applications, and compact balances for less critical weighing.

Parcel Scales
Parcel scales are small capacity scales used to weigh small items no larger than a parcel or box. Parcel scales are ideal as office postal scales and for store areas. The scales are available as either a mechanical or electronic version.

Counting Scales
Counting scales are specifically used to count small pieces and to totalise them. They are ideal for packaging by quantity rather than weight. Counting scales can also be used as a standard weighing scale.

Bench Scales
Bench mounted scales are small, light-weight scales ideal for weighing parcels and cartons in freight and store areas.

Floor Scales
Floor mounted scales are useful for weighing loads close to the ground. The advantage of this is that the loads do not have to be lifted too high and causing a health and safety issue.

Health Care Industry Scales
Health care and medical industry scales are a range of scales including chair scales, wheelchair weighers, baby weighers, and bariatric scales.

Analytical & Precision Balances
There is a large range of analytical and precision balances available on the market-place. Because the purchase of a precision balance represents a significant investment, many factors must be considered in making the purchase.

Belt-Feed Bagging & Filling Machines
The conveyor-feed bagging machine is a most suited to achieving accurate final weights, as implied by the above image showing small plastic containers being filled with caustic soda.

Chair Scales
Chair scales are ideal for weighing patients. They are useful for hospitals and medical centres and have a capacity of 150kg.

Chlorine Drum Weigher
The Chlorine Drum Weigher is essentially a platform scale design specifically used to weigh chlorine drums, typically as they are being filled.

Intrinsically Safe Weighing Equipment
Intrinsically Safe Weighing Equipment is designed for dangerous and explosive areas. QWM supplies a range of equipment that is well suit to areas that require intrinsically safe equipment.

Keg Weighers
Keg weighers are useful for many hotels, clubs and freight stores for weighing kegs and barrels.

Loss-In-Weight Feeders
Loss-in-weight feeders are a specialised weighing solution, suited to applications where it is necessary to quantify the weight lost during discharging of a weigh bin.

QWM has access to a wealth of multihead food weighing and dosing machines. The machines use a number of weighing heads enabling astonishing bagging speeds. The machines have a proven track record in Australia, are extremely reliable and efficient.

Onboard Weighing - WasteWeigh
Onboard Weighing is desired by many industries for many different vehicle types. The ability to weigh loads as they are loaded is of great benefit to business owners and vehicle drivers as valuable time can be saved. There are numerous advantages to Onboard Weighing.

Overhead Track Scales
Overhead Track Scales are ideal for large butcheries and carcass processing plants (abattoirs). The Track Scale is designed to form an integral part with an existing overhead track system, without interrupting the transfer of carcasses.

Personal Weighers - Model 1650
Personal weighers are very common scales found in most Australian bathrooms. However, while most of us use them on occasions, some people with medical conditions rely on them for health reasons.

Pocket Balances
Pocket Balances are so named because they are small enough to fit in your pocket.

Rail Wagon Scales
Rail wagon scales are a similar engineering design to our weighbridges but take into account the loading and configuration specifications of rail wagons. Engineering certificates can be supplied with all our designs.

Screw-Feed Bagging & Filling Machines
A dual, net, screw bagging machine is ideally suited to a high volume process factory and for dry, large particle products, such as grain and cotton seed.

Spring Balances
Spring Balances, also known as Pocket Balances or Tubular Balances, are very versatile. Their compact size and light weight make them very portable, and they can virtually be set up to weigh in any location.

Vertical Form, Fill & Seal Machine
QWM now has access to a wealth of food packaging and form filling machines. The machines have a proven track record in Australia and are extremely reliable and efficient.

Weigh Hoppers & Bins
Most types of products are stored in bins, hoppers, or silos before transfer to a mixer or a transport vehicle.

Weighbars
Weighbars are a versatile weighing system, simple in design, yet effective. The system uses typically two weighbars that are placed apart. Each weighbar is connected to a single indicator.

 

Peripheral Equipment
