Compared to single bucket scales, the advantage of double bucket automatic quantitative packaging scales is not only in packaging speed. The two sets of measuring buckets of double bucket scales do not affect each other's independent weighing, and can be operated separately or simultaneously. If you want to choose between single bucket scales and double bucket scales, you need to comprehensively weigh the advantages and disadvantages from the following aspects.

1. Speed requirement

This is the first factor to consider. As we all know, the speed of a double bucket scale packaging scale is almost twice that of a single bucket scale. Matching the model based on production capacity is recommended. However, when the actual production capacity is similar to the speed limit of a single bucket scale, it is recommended to choose a double bucket scale directly.

2. Packaging accuracy

Many people may have heard a saying: "The slower the speed of the packaging scale is adjusted, the higher the accuracy." This sentence actually contains a limit value, beyond which no matter how slow it is, the accuracy cannot be improved. Because packaging scales have a fixed workflow during the cyclic weighing process, each process requires a certain amount of stabilization time to achieve maximum accuracy. For example, sometimes a single scale may shorten these stabilization times to meet speed requirements, resulting in a decrease in accuracy.

3. Investment factors

The investment in disposable equipment for double bucket scales will definitely be higher than that of single bucket scales, but the price of double bucket scales is often much lower than that of two single bucket scales. In terms of manufacturing cost, double bucket scales only have an additional set of weighing buckets and feeding, widened racks, shared sealing machines, and similar computer systems compared to single bucket scales. So the double bucket scale has a higher cost-effectiveness.

4. Other factors

A double bucket scale has a speed almost equal to two single bucket scales, but two single bucket scales require two people to operate, and a double bucket scale can be operated by one person. Therefore, another benefit of a double bucket scale is to save labor.
