Case Study: How Yiwan Detection's Checkweigher Sweetened the Deal for a Gummy Candy Manufacturer

Customer Profile:

A leading gummy product manufacturer renowned for its innovative flavors and high-quality standards. Its products are exported to multiple countries and regions worldwide, with extremely stringent requirements for production efficiency and product consistency.

Challenges Faced:

On high-speed packaging lines, ensuring the net weight of each bag of gummies complies with regulatory standards and meets internal quality control requirements was an ongoing challenge. Manual sampling was not only inefficient but also prone to errors, which could lead to:

• Overweight Products: Resulting in significant "giveaway" costs, eroding profits.
• Underweight Products: Risking regulatory violations, customer complaints, and damage to brand reputation.
• Production Efficiency Bottlenecks: Manual inspection speeds could not keep up with high-speed production lines, limiting capacity.
• Data Traceability Difficulties: Lack of real-time, accurate production data made it difficult to implement effective production management and issue diagnosis.

Yiwan's Solution:

We recommended and installed the Yiwan CQ-XP 300 Series High-Speed Automatic Checkweigher for the customer. This equipment is specifically designed for high-speed production lines in the food industry, such as gummies and candies.

Core Advantages & Features:

• Exceptional Accuracy (±0.1g): Ensures precise weight measurement for every bag of gummies, even at the fastest production speeds.
• Impressive Speed: With a detection speed of 20-90 m/min, it seamlessly matches the customer's high-speed production line without bottlenecks.
• Robust and Hygienic Design: Constructed with food-grade stainless steel and IP65 protection rating, it is easy to clean and maintain, fully complying with HACCP and GMP standards.
• User-Friendly Interface: Features a large touchscreen for easy operation and quick product recipe switching.
• Comprehensive Data Logging and Statistical Process Control (SPC): Displays real-time production data, pass rates, averages, and standard deviations. Automatically generates reports for easy product traceability and quality analysis.

Quantifiable Results for the Customer:

• Cost Savings: Achieved 99.8% dosing weight accuracy by eliminating overweight products, saving the customer tens of thousands in raw material costs annually.
• Zero Compliance Risks: Ensured 100% of products meet weight regulations for domestic and export markets, completely eliminating customer complaints and risks related to underweight products.
• Efficiency Improvement: Increased production line speed by 15% by removing manual inspection bottlenecks and reducing downtime caused by weight issues.
• Leap in Quality Control: Achieved fully automated, 100% online weight inspection, transitioning quality control from reactive sampling to proactive prevention.
• Data-Driven Decision Making: Production managers now have access to real-time data to optimize upstream processes (such as molding and cutting), further enhancing consistency across the entire production process.

Customer Testimonial:

"Yiwan's checkweigher has become an indispensable 'quality gatekeeper' on our packaging line. Its high precision and stability give us immense confidence, especially when facing strict weight requirements from international customers. Since installing this equipment, we have received zero complaints about weight issues and have clearly seen the return on investment. The professional support from the Yiwan team has also left a deep impression on us."
