At VARPE, we understand that each client has specific needs and that, at times, doubts may arise regarding our products and services.
Frequently Asked Questions
Therefore, we have compiled the most frequently asked questions to offer you a quick and practical guide. Here you will find key information about our dynamic checkweighing solutions, quality inspection, and advanced technology.
Dynamic checkweighing systems
We clarify frequently asked questions about Checkweighing Systems to ensure efficiency and quality in production.
What is the difference between dynamic and static weighing?
Dynamic weighing is performed in motion and without stopping the production line. Static weighing requires stopping and is usually used for specific control tasks or sampling.
What tolerances can be configured?
It depends on the product and the equipment, but our machines can operate with precisions up to ±0.1 g depending on the model.
Can it be integrated into existing lines?
Yes, our systems are designed to facilitate their integration into operating lines, without the need for major modifications.
What maintenance does it need?
We recommend performing periodic preventive reviews and official calibrations. This ensures that the system works correctly and complies with regulations. Varpe offers complete maintenance plans to ensure optimal equipment performance.
X-ray
inspection systems
Radiation and radioactivity are often confused, but they are not the same; here we clarify the most common doubts:
Is it safe to use X-rays on a production line?
Yes. There is no risk to the product or the consumer. The equipment is shielded and complies with international regulations.
What is the difference between this and a metal detector?
X-ray inspection offers broader detection than a metal detector. It can identify non-metallic contaminants such as plastics and bones. This makes it a more complete solution for food safety.
Can products packaged in aluminum be inspected?
Yes, X-ray systems are effective even with metal or aluminum packaging. The technology used allows differentiation between layers and materials. This ensures accurate inspection without affecting product quality.
Can I export reports or images of the rejects?
Yes, all our equipment allows you to store and export production data. This includes images of rejected products. This way, you can maintain detailed control and improve your processes.
High-sensitivity metal detectors
Resolve your doubts about our high-sensitivity metal detectors.
What types of contaminants does an industrial metal detector detect?
It detects ferrous, non-ferrous and stainless steel metals. These contaminants may be present in food, pharmaceutical or industrial products. Their detection is crucial to ensure consumer safety.
Where are metal detectors installed?
They can be integrated at different points in the line: after dosing, before packaging or in final stages to ensure the finished product.
Can they be combined with other systems?
Yes. Varpe offers combined solutions that integrate metal detection with checkweighing and X-rays in a single compact unit, optimizing space and processes.
What maintenance do these systems require?
Its hygienic design facilitates daily cleaning. In addition, the VIT4 software helps to schedule preventive maintenance through automatic alerts.
What degree of sensitivity can they reach?
Thanks to its variable frequency technology, Varpe detectors offer very high sensitivity, even in products with high humidity or packaged in metallized materials.
Combined weighing and inspection systems
Everything you need to know about how Varpe’s combined systems optimize space, costs and quality control.
In which sectors can combined inspection and weighing systems be applied?
In sectors such as food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic or non-food, where it is essential to guarantee product quality and safety.
What combinations are available?
We offer combinations of checkweighing with metal detection or X-ray inspection. We also have 3-in-1 equipment for specific needs. Each solution is adapted to the client’s requirements.
Can the combined inspection and weighing system be adapted to my existing line?
Yes, Varpe’s combined equipment is designed to be easily integrated into new or existing lines, adjusting to the client’s space and technical needs.
What advantages does it offer compared to individual equipment?
Space reduction, cost savings, simplified management, less maintenance and more complete production control.
