The Basics of High-Speed Counting Machines


Automatic high-speed counting machines are designed to make the production process easier and more cost-effective. Here is a guide to high-speed counting machines to improve your business production.


What are high-speed counting machines?


A high-speed counting machine is a counting device that provides fast and reliable counting solutions for packaging and production. These machines work as a counting system near a packaging machine or conveyor belt. 


Manual counting takes time and labor costs that most businesses do not have. An automatic counting machine is more time-efficient as it provides fast counting. It is also cheaper than traditional weighing systems. Counter machines are more accurate than traditional systems as it follows optical counting. Optical counting relies on an electronic counter that helps with accurate food production and minimal waste loss. 


Examples of high-speed counting machines


There are a few counting equipment choices on the market that boost productivity and packaging. Multi-Fill stocks Velec Systems counting machines which helps to integrate automatic counting into your packaging process, allowing you to expand your production capabilities.

Food packaging plays a vital role in ensuring the safety and quality of the food we consume. To maintain high standards and prevent foodborne illnesses, the food packaging industry follows a set of regulations known as Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP). In this article, we will delve into cGMP and explore its impact on preventing foodborne illness. We will also take an inside look at how cGMP is implemented on a food factory line, the role of food filling equipment in ensuring compliance, and discuss the future of cGMP in food packaging for strengthening food safety.

Current Good Manufacturing Practices Food safety is of utmost importance in the food industry, and several systems work together to prevent foodborne illnesses. This article explores the harmonization of Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP), Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP), and Hazard Analysis and Risk-based Preventive Controls (HARPC) in ensuring food line safety. We will delve into the synergy between these systems, the role of critical control points, and their practical application in both automatic and manual counting devices. Additionally, we will discuss how cGMP, HACCP, and HARPC optimize automatic filling machines for enhanced food safety. This is the second in a series of articles on cGMP.
