Function
The unit is suitable for instant weighing of milk, measuring FAT & SNF content, calculating the amount payable to the member based on FAT & SNF and weight, printing the amount calculated thereof with member identification details. This Unit is also used for maintaining the complete record of the collection center together with the details of all transactions of the village co-operative society and includes card reader as an optional item. The unit can measure fat content from 0 –20 %, SNF from 3 to 15 % and is able to weigh milk up to 200 kg per batch at a time.
