Triple the Loadcells, Triple the Impact: General Measure Powers Kumho-Sunny’s Pellet Packing Upgrade

General Measure Technology Co. Ltd. (China) – As a leading enterprise in the modified plastics industry in China, Kumho-Sunny places a high emphasis on precision and efficiency across its production processes—especially in pellet packaging, where accuracy directly impacts cost control and customer trust. To address this, General Measure's AF-50K pellet packing scale (3-loadcell version) was implemented, leveraging its core three-loadcell technology to deliver efficient and precise packing for plastic and rubber granules.

About Kumho-Sunny: A Leader in Modified Plastics:

Kumho-Sunny is one of Asia's top 3 manufacturers of high-performance modified plastics, specializing in materials such as ABS and PC/ABS. Its original packing lines used a dual-loadcell system and faced three major challenges in 50kg large bag packaging:

1. Inconsistent Accuracy: The high unit price of plastic pellets meant that packaging deviations directly increased costs.
2. Time-Consuming Adjustments: Manual parameter tuning was inefficient during product changes, complicating multi-batch production.
3. Frequent Product Switchover: Small-batch, multi-variety production required frequent cleaning. The original equipment was hard to clean and prone to contamination, reducing efficiency.

General Measure AF-50K Packing Scale:

The AF-50K pellet packing scale (3-loadcell version) is designed for quantitative packing of free-flowing granular materials such as plastic pellets, rice, and sugar, from 10 to 50kg. It is widely applied in industries such as chemicals, grain, feed, and food.

Customized Solution: Large Capacity for Plastic & Rubber Pellets:

To meet Kumho-Sunny's specific needs, General Measure provided a custom AF-50K with a 3-loadcell weighing mechanism, achieving breakthroughs in precision, speed, and stability.

Three-Loadcell Structure: Precision and Speed Upgrade:

Enhanced Anti-Interference: The three high-precision load cells are symmetrically arranged to counteract external interferences such as mechanical vibration and material impact, significantly boosting weighing accuracy and speed compared to single or dual loadcells systems.

Optimized Speed for Single-Material Weighing: The unit delivers superior accuracy for plastic and rubber granules, achieving up to ±25g precision and up to 1150 bags/hour, reducing waste and saving costs substantially.

Modular Design: Improved Materials Changeover and Maintenance Efficiency:

Modular Components Design: The weighing hopper uses a quick-disassembly modular design, facilitating installation, maintenance, and cleaning—critical for frequent material changes in plastic pellets production. The sealed structure allows for direct water rinsing, preventing cross-contamination.

Split Installation: The touch-screen control panel is separate from the main body and can be installed independently, allowing operators to work from optimal positions and improving ease of operation and maintenance.

Servo Feeding with Fine Dosing: Balancing Speed and Quality:

Servo Motor Feeding: Enables fast, medium, and slow-speed feeding with fine-tuning to prevent overshoot. It adjusts feeding speed in real-time based on material flow, ensuring stable, consistent filling without shortages or clumping, which enhances overall packaging quality.

Smart Parameter Settings: Transparent Production Management:

Traceable Data: The HMI records real-time data such as weight per bag and total output. USB export allows client to easily track production, manage costs, and trace quality.

Automated Parameter Adjustment: The system automatically sets optimal feed control based on target values input on the HMI, enabling precise multi-stage feeding. This reduces manual intervention, minimizes human error, and improves efficiency.

Increased Productivity, Improved Brand Image:

After applying General Measure's AF-50K pellet bag filler,Kumho-Sunny significantly improved both packaging efficiency and accuracy. The stable operation reduced maintenance costs, while precise packaging enhanced the company’s product image and customer satisfaction. With excellent performance and tailored solutions, General Measure continues to empower the rubber and plastics industry with high-efficiency packaging solutions—helping enterprises reduce costs and boost productivity.
