At Driver Southall, we manufacture bakery checkweighers designed for the unique requirements of the baking industry. Whether you produce loaves, rolls, pastries, or frozen dough products, our checkweighing systems offer precise weight control that helps maintain consistency across your product line.
We know that every gram counts when it comes to compliance, costs, and customer satisfaction. Our bakery checkweighers are engineered to operate in high output environments where speed and durability are non-negotiable. They can be used at various points across the production line, including post-proving, post-baking, or during final packaging.
We offer tailored solutions to suit your production line layout. Whether you need a standalone unit or a fully integrated system with metal detection, we work with you to match the right equipment to your production goals.
Our Bakery Checkweighers
Built in the UK – for the Demands of the Bakery Industry
Our equipment is designed to deliver consistent results, time after time. Each bakery checkweighing system is constructed from stainless steel, with hygienic designs that are easy to clean and built to last. All our machines unless stated otherwise are protected to IP65 as a minimum. Most of our machines are protected to IP66 and are suitable for direct low pressure washing.
Operators can adjust settings through a clear touchscreen interface, with simple menus and user friendly controls.
Beyond just weighing, our bakery checkweighers can collect valuable production data, which can highlight trends and be exported to your factory software systems. This allows you to spot inefficiencies, make better decisions and avoid waste.
All systems are designed to handle a wide variety of bakery products, from unpackaged soft goods like bread rolls, through to bagged or boxed items ready for retail. Speed and weight accuracy remain consistent, regardless of the product shape or packaging material.

Metal Detection and Checkweighing in One System
For many bakery producers, both weight accuracy and contamination control are essential. We offer combination units that feature both checkweighing and metal detection in a single machine.
These systems help detect ferrous, non-ferrous and stainless steel contaminants while still checking every pack for correct weight, giving you two essential checks in one.
Sensitivity levels can be set to suit your product type, including the demands of conductive or moisture rich bakery goods. The system can reject contaminated or out-of-spec products automatically, using air blast or pusher mechanisms, depending on your requirements.
