How to Control Product Quality While Maintaining High Throughput

"Using weight to control quality is a fast and accurate way to ensure products are complete and of the desired quality," said a Mettler Toledo spokesperson.

"Weight-based quality control is a fast and secure way to check product quality, intactness or completeness. Quality parameters are verified simply by looking at weight differences. The method is characterized by high throughput, easy handling and low installation cost.

"In production of metal parts, regular quality checks are necessary to satisfy customers. Checking processes have to keep up with production speed even in manual assembly. Sometimes common optical and tactile quality checks are too slow, too costly or simply not suitable for a company's desired application," said the spokesperson.

"Weight-based quality control offers an alternative way of quality testing. It is a very versatile, accurate and fast method to check the quality of a wide range of metal products throughout the manufacturing process," said Simone Zimmermann, Mettler Toledo Marketing Manager.
