Hello, I am new to Food Quality and this is my first post here, so please go easy on me.
We are a food processing (applesauce) facility who have had a few third party audits, and are
now about ready to step up to SQF.
My question is about our New Alpha checkweigher.
We have a total of 4 scales and a checkweigher in our facility.
The 4 scales are certified by an outside source annually, but I have not been able to find out if
the checkweigher falls under the same requirements for calibration certification.
The checkweigher is calibrated daily in house before the start of production and product is checked
against it with a certified scale every half an hour.
Are Alpha Checkweighers held to the same standards as conventional scales?
Thank You in advance for your assistance.
