Electronic Weighing Balances.



Weighing balances are used in industrial and research laboratories.

Weighing balances are further classified into Precision Balances, Analytical Balances, Semi Micro balances and Micro balances.

Selection of the balance depends on the required readability ( i.e. grams or milligrams).
Other factors that play role in selection are weighing capacity - minimum and maximum weight it can weigh.
Repetability - ability to show the same result when object is repeatedly weighed under similar condition.
Weighing environment and stabilization period.

Weighing balances provide different functions and can be interfaced with computers for storing and analyzing weighment data.


Weighing balances are sensitive device and need to be handled very carefully.
For accurate reading they need to be placed where there is no vibration, interference from air current and static charges.

Batching System



In industry it is very important to produce quality products consistently.
As most products are manufactured in different batches it becomes a challenge to maintain consistency between batches.

Products having many ingredients need to be weighed accurately and blended together as per process requirement.
This can be easily achieved by using electronic batch weighing systems.

Batch Weighing System consists of weight sensor (load cell), hoppers and electronic weight controller.
User can set required weight of individual ingredients. These ingredients are accurately discharged and used in further process.

Batching systems are used in food, pharma and chemical industries. For example accurate batching helps in food processing industry to maintain quality, appearance, color and taste of food products. Similarly in chemical industry accurate batching is required to achieve optimal recreation.

Batching system automates weighing of ingredients and reduces the possible human error.

Pouch Filling Machine

Right type of packaging increases the product's shelf life, its appeal and enhances brand image.

Premade pouches have made inroads in packaging industry because of their strong shelf presence. They are easy to store and reuse. Food grade laminates help keep food products fresher for longer. Solid,liquid and powdered form of foods can be easily filled and sealed. Single serving sizes with easy open options that can be easily carried  and consumed anywhere made them more popular.

Premade pouch filling machines can fill and seal different pouch types like pillow, stand up, zip lock, spouted etc. Operation involved is opening up of pouch and filling desired product – solid, liquid, solid + liquid or powder. Various types of nozzles available to meet the application need. These machines are easy to disassemble for cleaning and can be changed over in short time. Upto 150 products can be filled depending upon model. Pouch filling machines have gained importance in food and pharma industry because of hygienic packaging, speed and safety.

Tablet and Capsule Inspection

Stringent regulatory requirements, preventing costly recalls and protecting company's brand value are some of reasons to use Tablet and Capsule Inspection System.

There is always risk of mix-ups and cross contamination, where frequency of line change over is high. Earlier, manufacturers and packers depended upon sampling or manual inspection methods which were prone to human error and not foolproof. Available automation solutions were expensive, slow and difficult to line change over.

Advancement in technology has made inspection of wide range of pharmaceutical products at high throughput with accuracy.

In Antares Tablet and Capsule Inspection System, two rotary drums, align capsules and tablets in front of inspection window without damaging them. 8 color high resolution cameras acquire up-to 8 images per product. Detection of even smallest defect or imperfection is guaranteed by using different lighting techniques.

Tablet Capsule Inspection


Tablet and Capsule Inspection system detects damaged edges, color deviation, uneven surface, dots, dirts, cracks, dents, chips, holes, coating defects, low imprint or embossed quality. Defective products are sent to rejector bin by air blow. The active optical detector for products output verification ensures fail-safe and reliable operation on the rejected and good products.

Tablet and Capsule Inspection System is controlled by touch screen – graphical interface and hence easy to use. Small number of parts means easy to clean and  fast line change overs.

Colour and Light Measurement Solutions

Perceived color of product and brand plays an important role in recognition and selection of brand. It has become a necessity to maintain the color of product, packaging and logos.

Advances in technology and new developments have made quantification and measurement of color easy and affordable.

There are different types of Color Measuring instruments like spectrophotometers, chroma meter/colorimeters, gloss meters etc.

Spectrophotometer are used to measure spectral values ( reflectance/transmittance) of sample. Spectral values are used for further calculation of color parameters. Benchtop and portable versions of spectrophotometers are available.


Color Readers and Chroma meters are used to assess color difference between two samples.  The color difference  dE* is expressed in either L* a* b* or  L* C* H* color space.

Gloss Meters are used to measure gloss values. These instruments are used in paper, paint and plastic industries.

Color Measurement is used for quality assurance in industries. Some typical uses are:
Automotive industry: Maintaining tolerance of color of different accessories received from various vendors.

Food & Pharma : To check color of raw materials and finished goods.
FMCG: To check color of packaging, product and logo.
Paper,Pigment and Paint Industry:  Gloss, whiteness, yellowness and shade measurement.

Digital Printing Solutions

Advances in Digital Printing Technology has created many printing solutions that substantially reduce production cost and also resulted in profitable low-volume production.

Digital Textile Printers are based on inkjet technology. Suitable fabric handling mechanisms are attached to inkjet printers. Different types of colorants are used for different type of fabrics.

Direct to Garment (DTG) is also digital textile printing where small designs are printed on garments such as T-shirts and promotional wear.



In Digital Textile Printing there is no need to prepare “screen”, hence it is even economical to print small volume of fabric. Digital Textile Printers can print on cotton, silk and polyester fabric. Low energy sublimation inks and high energy disperse inks are directly printed on fabric. In sublimation printing, first printing is done on a transfer paper and then it is transferred to fabric using heat press.

Along with Digital Textile Printers, RIP software is used. This software enhances digital textile printers capabilities and makes processing of large image file faster and consistent.

Application of Digital Textile Printer : Apparel, garment, home textile, sports wear and furnishing.


Coding, Marking and Labelling Systems

Thermal transfer label printers use heat to transfer ink from ribbon onto the label. Label may be of paper or synthetic material. Ribbon is normally made of wax, resin or wax and resin combination.

Thermal transfer labels are used widely in packaging labels, retail pricing labels, supply chain management, marking specimens in laboratory etc. Barcode printed labels make inventory management and tracking easier.

Depending upon required shelf life of label, label material and ribbon type is selected. Thermal transfer labels are durable and scratch resistant.

Thermal transfer label printers also works in stand alone mode. That is no need to connect to computer. Label printers can also be interfaced with electronic weighing scale or other device and can be programmed to print information received.

Special label printers which can print simultaneously in two colors are also available. These printers are used to print GHS compliant labels in chemical and specialty chemical industries.

Label printers which can print on double side are used in textile industries for printing wash care labels.

Label printers are also used to print on tube, wire harness application and small size ( 4 mm x 4 mm) for PCB identification.

Print and apply system, consisting of label printer and applicator are installed in production line to automate labelling applications.
