Carton Weighing System

xCWS — weigh, label & pack to order

The packing-station workstation. Weigh every carton against the customer's order, print GS1/SSCC labels, pack mixed boxes with consolidated labels, and build pallets ready for dispatch — all from one touch screen wired to your scales, printers and the IKA Results database.

Weigh to order Mixed cartons (CCL) Pallets & dispatch

Weighed to the order

Catch-weight or fixed-weight, every carton checked against min/max tolerance and allocated to the right customer order.

Mixed boxes to order

Pack several products into one carton with Consolidated Carton Labels — start, top-up, join, move and close part cartons.

Palletised for dispatch

Consolidate cartons onto pallets, generate SSCC labels and hand off clean, traceable shipments to distribution.

Weigh to order

Every carton checked against the order

Place the packed carton on the scale and tap the product. xCWS reads the live weight, validates it against the product's min/max tolerance or fixed target, allocates the carton to the customer order, and prints its label — updating ordered-vs-packed as it goes.

  • Live scale weight & tare
  • Catch-weight & fixed-weight products
  • Min / max tolerance checking
  • Allocate carton to customer order
  • Live ordered-vs-packed count
  • Optional piece count per carton
  • Standing orders & top-ups

Mixed cartons · CCL

Pack mixed boxes to order

When an order needs several products in one box, xCWS builds a Consolidated Carton Label (CCL). Start a part carton, keep topping it up with different products, then join, move or close it — the label captures every product, weight and piece count in the one box.

Pallets & dispatch

Consolidate to pallets, ready to ship

As cartons complete, assign them to a pallet. xCWS generates a GS1 SSCC for each pallet, tracks its cartons, weight and destination, and prints the pallet label — so distribution and e-cert have a clean, traceable handoff.

  • Create or recall pallet numbers
  • GS1 SSCC generation & validation
  • Carton-to-pallet consolidation
  • Dual-printer SSCC pallet labels
  • Feeds distribution & MPI e-cert
  • Full carton traceability retained

Built for a busy packing floor

Shift & line management

Operators sign in and pick their shift and production line (EXPORT, FSNI, LEENZ…) at startup, so every carton is stamped with who, where and when.

GS1 / SSCC barcodes

Standards-compliant barcodes encode GTIN, weight, date, serial and piece count on carton labels — and SSCC codes on pallets.

Dual label printers

Send carton and pallet labels to two network printers with per-product templates, plus print logging for quick troubleshooting.

Standing orders & top-ups

Recognise recurring standing orders and top up partly-filled orders without re-keying — keep or reprint as you go.

Reprint, void & recall

Find any carton by serial to reprint its label or void it, with password-protected deletes and clean-up of empty CCLs.

Second-screen & touch UI

A full-screen, large-button touch interface with an optional second screen showing live line information to the team.

Wired to your gear

Hardware, integrated out of the box

Scales & indicators

Ohaus and compatible scales over serial (COM) or IP, with stable-weight detection, tare and a live online/offline status.

Network label printers

Two TCP/IP thermal printers with per-product label formats, GS1/SSCC barcodes and status monitoring.

Scanners & SQL Server

Keyboard-wedge scanners for serial lookup, all backed by SQL Server so every carton is traceable across the platform.
