High-throughput combination weighers customized for Middle Eastern food processing facilities
Aligning with the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 to localize food and beverage packaging technology
As Saudi Arabia aggressively drives its industrial localization under the umbrella of Saudi Vision 2030, the city of Riyadh is witnessing an unprecedented surge in modern food manufacturing. Factories within the Riyadh Second Industrial City and surrounding areas are undergoing rapid digital transformation. Traditional manual or semi-automated packaging methods are no longer sufficient to meet the strict quality standards of the Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA) or the high-throughput demands of the regional market.
In this dynamic landscape, Ningbo Nexa Machine Co., Ltd. serves as a key technology partner for Riyadh-based food processors. Multihead weighing packaging machines have transitioned from optional upgrades to fundamental infrastructure. Whether processing local Saudi dates, packaging imported rice and grains, or processing gourmet snacks, our smart combination scales provide the necessary speed, reliability, and precision required to maximize profit margins and eliminate costly product giveaway.
A deep look into the hardware mechanics and electronic architectures of Nexa Systems
Engineered with modular CAN-Bus control systems, minimizing wiring and allowing instant self-diagnostics. Individual actuator boards can be replaced without complete system downtime.
Constructed entirely from premium food-grade SUS304/SUS316 stainless steel. Seamless chassis welding prevents moisture accumulation, making high-pressure washdowns safe and simple.
Our high-speed digital signal processing (DSP) filters out mechanical vibration from adjacent packing machinery, ensuring accurate weighments at up to 120 cycles per minute.
At Ningbo Nexa Machine Co., Ltd., we design our multihead weighers to integrate seamlessly into a broader factory ecosystem. Our latest generation controls feature integrated Ethernet ports, enabling remote diagnostic capabilities that connect your Riyadh engineering team directly with our headquarters in China. If a calibration deviation occurs, our experts can remotely adjust the weighing algorithms, significantly reducing mean time to repair (MTTR).
Additionally, the machines feature a user-friendly HMI touch screen supporting multiple language profiles, including Arabic and English, allowing local operators to quickly switch between pre-saved recipes for different products like dates, nuts, seeds, and spices. This minimizes changeover time and optimizes overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).
Engineered variations to handle products of differing viscosities, densities, and physical profiles
Saudi Arabia is one of the world's leading producers of premium dates (Khalas, Ajwa, Sukkari). However, dates present an extreme challenge for automated weighers due to their high sugar content and stickiness. Standard stainless steel hoppers quickly become gummed up, leading to inaccurate drops and system jams.
Nexa's Solution: We supply customized multihead weighers equipped with dimpled (embossed) stainless steel plates and specialized anti-stick coatings (such as Teflon). Additionally, our linear vibrator pans are configured with a steeper angle, and we implement specialized pneumatic gate designs on the feed hoppers to ensure sticky dates flow cleanly into the bagging system.
For high-volume dry foods such as chickpeas, lentils, and basmati rice—staples of the Saudi Arabian diet—maintaining speed without creating dust clouds is a primary manufacturing challenge. Excessive dust can affect seal integrity in vertical form fill seal (VFFS) systems.
Nexa's Solution: Our integrated VFFS lines feature dust-extraction hoods at the transition points. The combination of closed-gate hoppers and dust extraction ensures that the sealing area of the plastic bag remains free from fine powders, assuring airtight heat sealing and extended shelf life under the high temperature conditions of Riyadh.
By utilizing a staggered dumping system, Nexa multihead scales prevent bridging (clogging) when large-sized products or bulk packages are dropped into the forming tube, achieving optimal packing cycles.
Ensuring frictionless customs clearance through SABER registration and SASO certification
Importing industrial machinery into Saudi Arabia requires absolute adherence to strict regulatory guidelines. All industrial machinery entering the Kingdom must be registered on the SABER platform and hold valid SASO (Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization) certificates of conformity.
Ningbo Nexa Machine Co., Ltd. has a dedicated compliance team that works directly with accredited international certification bodies (like SGS, Intertek, or TUV) to issue the required documentation. We ensure that:
