Multifunction scale Akrivis

IoTEthernetstainless steel

Overview
The Akrivis is a fully automatic batch scale engineered to weigh powdery and granular products with high precision. It is designed for high-end food and related processing environments and combines hygienic design, energy efficiency and advanced digital monitoring.

Key benefits

• Full transparency across machine and process line via Bühler Insights Scales Monitoring System for critical parameter visibility and predictive maintenance
• Exceptional accuracy down to ±0.1% using process logic, differential pressure compensation and high-precision load cells
• Significant energy reduction up to 99% enabled by the DriveX module with integrated power management

Sustainability
The DriveX module integrates a purpose-built servo motor and gearbox optimised for inlet gate and discharge flap movements. It extends service life, supports operation under warm conditions and, together with the power management system, can reduce emissions by up to 11 tonnes CO2e per year.

Digitalization
The Scales Monitoring System (Bühler Insights) delivers full transparency on parameters critical for process and quality. Smart analyses maximise raw material yield, enable predictive maintenance and detect process instabilities.

Food safety
Akrivis meets high food-safety standards: all product-contact metal surfaces are stainless steel, sealings are food-grade, the product zone is free of dust-accumulating areas and exposed bolts, and large cleaning and maintenance openings provide safe, fast access.

Ease of use
The Unify control system provides intuitive operation and flexible connectivity to plant control systems. An integrated web server enables monitoring and operation from tablets and PCs, while guided wizards assist operation and maintenance teams during troubleshooting.

Applications
Designed for accurate batch dosing and weighing of a wide range of powdery and granular materials in food, feed and related industries where hygiene, accuracy and energy efficiency are required.
