Rejects are automatically diverted to a parallel reweigh station where an operator can adjust the weight of the carton on a separate static scale. After necessary adjustments in weight are made, the carton is returned by the operator to again go over the automatic check-weigher and on to the carton closer. This system also includes automatic traffic control so that only one carton at a time is on the check-weigher. The operator can be freed up to do other work, as this system can be set up to allow 10 or more cartons to be held in the re-weigh area. Chinook Equipment, Inc.
