Case study: Table Talk Pies packaging line bakes quality into every bite with Mettler-Toledo hi-speed checkweigher
For 97 years, Table Talk Pies has never wavered in their commitment to producing the highest quality pies. That promise has helped them grow from a two-man bakery to a leading producer of pies with over 300 employees across three automated facilities. In 2019, Table Talk installed a Mettler-Toledo Hi-Speed C33 PlusLine checkweigher on a new packaging line. By detecting and rejecting over- and under-weight packages, Table Talk maintains their product quality standards and maximizes yield.
“When you’re as committed to quality as we are, checkweighing is an absolutely essential step,” said Brian Clough, automation engineer at Table Talk. “The primary purpose is to ensure we always give our customers the amount of pie we state on the box, while also minimizing our product give-away. Plus, checkweighers can recognize upward and downward trends in weight, which might indicate an incorrect adjustment or equipment failure upstream that needs to be addressed. The bottom line: our C33 checkweigher helps keep things running smoothly.
