Yamato Patented Technology: Engineering the Future of Precision

Maximize Accuracy. Minimize Waste. Future-Proof Your Production.

At Yamato, innovation isn’t just a feature—it’s our foundation. Our patented technologies are engineered to provide the flexibility and reliability processors need to stay ahead of market shifts while maximizing profitability and efficiency.

Patented Frontier Technology

Unrivaled Versatility for High-Speed Lines Yamato’s Frontier Technology revolutionizes the traditional multihead weigher by introducing a hardware and software architecture that allows for unprecedented versatility. 

The Three Operational Modes:

  • High-Speed Simplex: Maximize throughput for single-point discharge applications.
  • Duplex Mode: Perfectly synchronize with twin-tube baggers to double your output without doubling your footprint.
  • Reject Mode: Seamlessly isolate and divert non-conforming weights without halting the packaging cycle.

Key Benefits:

  • Versatility: One food packaging system handles a variety of products and packaging formats.
  • Minimal downtime: Quick, toolless transitions between runs keep production on track.
  • Adaptability: Pivot between different modes to meet changing production needs.

Patented SVR Reject System

Smart Recirculation for Secondary Packaging & Counting Applications Yamato’s patented SVR Reject System features a recirculating ring that can be configured to return product to the weigher, ensuring that nothing goes to waste. The SVR system automatically rejects overweight or overcount buckets without interrupting the packaging cycle to reduce giveaway, minimize waste, and achieve up to 99% efficiency.

Key Benefits:

  • Continuous Production: Rejects are handled automatically without skipping a cycle at the packaging machine.
  • Zero Waste: Product is collected for recirculation rather than discarded, making 100% yield achieveable.
  • Precision Counting: Ideal for high-value applications where piece count down to 1-piece accuracy is critical.

Patented Ultra Heavy-Duty Load Cells

Industrial Strength. Scientific Precision. The heart of every Yamato scale is our proprietary load cell technology. While many industrial scales sacrifice accuracy for durability, Yamato’s heavy-duty strain gauge load cells offer the best of both worlds.

The Yamato Advantage:

  • Extreme Durability: Engineered to withstand up to 150 kilograms (330 pounds) of force.
  • Unmatched Accuracy: Despite their ruggedness, these cells maintain an accurate resolution of 1/100th of a gram.

Why Choose Yamato Patented Technology?

  • Increased Profitability: By reducing giveaway and product waste, our technology delivers a faster Return on Investment (ROI).
  • Environmental Responsibility: Our “Bottom Based Handling” reduces sealing errors, significantly cutting down on plastic film waste.
  • Reduced Total Cost of Ownership: Robust construction and modular designs (like tool-free bucket removal) mean less maintenance and more uptime.
