AccuSizer™ Belt Grader / Classifier Systems

AccuSizer™
Belt Grader / Classifier Systems
Harnessing the power of
technology to optimize yields,
throughput and accuracy.
AccuSizer™
Productivity and precision in a “class” all its own.
For poultry processors to
succeed, they must continually
improve their productivity
while keeping the incidence of
overweight packing and product
“giveaway” to a minimum.
AccuSizer™ belt grader/classifier
systems from Gainco help
processors do just that, featuring
an ingenious combination of
user-friendly interfaces, advanced
weighing technology and robust,
rugged platforms.
Our AccuSizer™ product
classifier systems use the latest
load cell technology to provide
the highest levels of weight
accuracy and speed available in
the industry today. They feature
sizing speeds up to 180 portions
per minute, with tolerances up
to +/- 1.5 grams 95% of the
time, depending on product size,
spacing and stability.
Combining this degree of
speed and accuracy with the userfriendly operating characteristics
of the equipment results in a
healthier portion of profit showing
up on your bottom line.

The Power of Information
Intelligent as well as wellperforming, our equipment
gives you the information you
need to manage your classifier
operations with skill and ease:
• Touchscreen interface with
graphical displays that are easy
to understand and navigate.
• You have the power
to control each bin
by individual piece
weight range, count
and batch size.
• You have instant
ability to change
weight and distribution parameters,
or batch management information.
System features include
the latest web-based
integrated B&R control
and monitoring capabilites,
along with IP69K-rated
enclosures for the ultimate
in washdown protection,
ensuring reliable operation.
• AccuSizer™ belt grader systems
can also be linked to a
computer using our DataMan™
software, which provides
operators and management
with a continuous stream
of real-time data. Standard
or custom reports can be
generated with data from
multiple systems.
DataMan™ Data
Management System
• Data is collected for single
and multiple systems,
simplifying reporting and
the creation of summary
reports.
• Only one operator is
needed to control and
monitor activity for several
lines – from anywhere.
• Real-time management,
monitoring and reporting
is available through local
access or wide access
networking, which improves
control, oversight and
coordination.
AccuSizer™
Design details make the difference.
It’s the little design details that
make AccuSizer™ belt grader/
classifier systems run so
accurately and perform so well.
For example:
• A state-of-the-art B&R
integrated machine control
package is user-friendly,
flexible, and designed to last.
• Rugged load cells are
completely sealed in a welded
stainless steel housing
specially designed to withstand
the harsh rigors of poultry
processing operations.
They deliver advanced
speed, precision and data
communication capabilities.
• B&R controls platform allows
for the highest levels of
diagnostics and equipment
operation available. An optional
web based reporting package
enables remote access to
system data.
• Immunity from EMI interference
enables load cells to eliminate
any weighing inconsistencies
coming from plant electrical
noise. All relevant data from
the load cell is transmitted
directly to the B&R control
system for rapid analysis and
selection criteria.
• Completely accurate counting
is assured via the use of laser
technology for faster product
detection prior to weighing –
thus preventing “false weighs”
from occurring.
• An auto-tare feature ensures
weighing accuracy by continuously updating the weigh belt
tare weight to compensate for
scrap buildup on the belt links.
• Special proprietary “auto-zero”
software fine-tunes weighing
accuracy by automatically
compensating for load cell
drift, as well as any scrap
buildup on the weigh deck.
Diverse poultry applications
for AccuSizer™ belt grader/
classifier systems include:
• Whole birds and front halves
• Boneless breasts – butterflies
and filets
• Tenders
• Wings
• Leg quarters and whole legs
• Thighs
• Whole turkeys
• Turkey lobes
• Turkey tenders
• Turkey drums
The unique curved design of pull-off
arms helps them gently redirect items,
thereby reducing the incidence of
product damage to near-zero.
Equipment Options
Redesigned bins on AccuSizer™ belt graders utilize captive hinges for complete access to
the belt frame, improving sanitation and making set-up and pre-op inspections a breeze.
• Bin types
• Chute
