ISHIDA
New: i-STATION LINK, Data Collection and View System
Ishida has released a data collection and view system, i-STATION LINK, in response to the growing demand for effective data management in factices.

The i-STATION LINK is able to collect weighing data of CCW multihead weighers and DACS checkweighers via Ethernet network and displays it on a PC in an easily understood format. This not only lets you check real-time production status from an office that is away from factory, but also allows weighing data to be further analyzed with a PC.

Features of i-STATION LINK

One feature is viewing real-time and historical production data for each machine. On a PC screen, weighing result with product weight distribution chart is displayed in an easily understood format, which provides instant updates for selected machines. Also, specific weighing result can be displayed for each machine by date and time so that past production can be easily checked.

In addition, the i-STATION LINK is able to display individual weighing data in a list. All the data can be exported to Excel file by selecting a model name to make further analysis of weighing result.

The production report obtained from each machines will be printed out in an easy-to-read format, so that operators can use it as a production report.

This new system can be used with both new and already installed Ishida models. For detailed information, please contact Ishida distributors.

Accurate weighing for fresh and highly adhesive products;
Ishida CCW multihead weigher with screw-feeder
Ishida's new multihead weigher with rotary screw-feeder can provide innovative solution for weighing of difficult-to-handling high adhesive products such as raw meat, raw fish, cooked pasta, etc.

As such sticky products tend to easily stick to weigher's surface and absorb vibration of dispersion feeder of the weigher, it is quite difficult to feed them accurately into weighing hoppers. What Ishida proposes as a solution is "screw-feeder". A set of screw-feeder rotates according to product configurations, providing appropriate and precise control of product supply to the hoppers of even highly adhesive materials.
