Statistical quality control in the food industry
Save time and reduce cost in food packaging processes
Fill quantities of packaged food and beverages are governed by strict regulations. To comply with these regulations, fill quantities must not be below a specified minimum value. Fill quantities lower the defined minimum may result not only in disappointed consumers and loss of reputation but also charges of fraud. However, it is also in the interest of a producer to not overfill packages, as this is essentially product giveaway. While regulations vary, in some countries and with certain products, overfilling is also prohibited.
To ensure fill quantities remain within required tolerances and to optimize quantities to maintain margins and profitability, statistical quality control (SQC) in the food industry is often carried out. XPR precision balances, together with the SQC application, offer a standalone tool for the monitoring, control and optimization of filling processes in the food and beverage industries.
