Template questions

Questions customers also ask

How often should a checkweigher be challenged?

The site procedure should set a risk-based frequency considering product, line, intervention and regulatory requirements.

What happens after a failed challenge?

Stop or contain production according to the procedure, investigate, correct the fault and assess product made since the last satisfactory check.

Should both underweight and overweight conditions be tested?

Test every classification and reject function used by the process or quality plan.

Can ordinary production packs be used?

Controlled challenge packs are preferable because their value and identity must be known and protected.
