The United States multihead weighers market is set to experience substantial growth, with a projected incremental opportunity of US$ 61.6 million from 2023 to 2033. This growth is driven by the efficient use of multihead weighers in packaging dairy products. Despite the sticky texture of dairy items, automated multihead weighers equipped with conveyor systems can effectively handle and accurately package these products. With the United States witnessing a notable increase in milk production, these advanced weighing and packaging solutions are poised to play a pivotal role in meeting the demands of the dairy industry, further expanding the market for multihead weighers in the country.
The global market for multihead weighers is projected to grow steadily over the next decade, with an estimated value of USD 238.9 million in 2023, set to reach USD 343.6 million by 2033 at a modest CAGR of 3.7%. The top three countries are anticipated to account for 35 to 40% of the global market share in 2023, signaling strong regional demand for these high-performance machines.
Originating in the 1970s with the pioneering work of Japanese multinational company Ishida, multihead weighers have become synonymous with swiftness, accuracy, and dependability in industrial weighing. Initially tailored for vegetables, these machines have expanded their applications over the years to include diverse products, both in the food and non-food sectors. The past two decades have witnessed an explosive global adoption of multihead weighers, particularly within the packaging industry.
Functioning through a consistent operational framework, these machines first intake the product, distributing it to individual food hoppers, which subsequently channel the product into an empty weigh hopper. Guided by embedded computers, the weighers assess the weights across the hoppers, enabling them to identify the combination that aligns closest to the target weight, often around 100 grams. Once this combination is identified, the corresponding hoppers are opened, allowing the product to enter distribution systems or bagmakers via discharge chutes.
This popularity surge can be attributed to their adaptability across an array of bag sizes, ranging from efficient small packs to substantial kilograms. Notably, their proficiency in mix-weighing—combining products with up to eight distinct components—has been a pivotal driver, catering to products as varied as cereals, incorporating both inexpensive and high-cost elements such as dried fruits and hazelnuts.
Furthermore, multihead weighers have proven invaluable in systems designed for swift and precise tray placement, facilitated by their exceptional precision, ensuring minimal splashing.
Key Takeaways:
- From 2013 to 2022, the market for multihead weighers was observed to experience a sluggish 3% CAGR.
- In 2023, FMI expects Germany market for multihead weighers to hold a share of 27% in Europe.
- Between 2023 and 2033, sales in the United States multihead weighers industry is anticipated to create incremental US$ 61.6 million
- The rotary machine segment it expected to expand 5x of its present industry share between 2023 and 2033.
- The food segment is likely to account for 90% of the market’s share from 2023 to 2033.
“ Multihead weighers are gaining enormous market acceptance around the world due to the high accuracy of machines with benefits such as packaging in less time. In the coming years, manufacturers are expected to pay increasing attention to incorporate automation across their products.” Says an FMI analyst.

In addition to this, some multihead weigher manufacturers are highlighting the standalone applications of the machines by offering the usage of multihead weighers separate from the production line.
Growth in demand for multihead weighers is propelled by increasing popularity and the adaption of advanced machinery solutions like multihead weighers across various manufacturing industries. This will enable growth in the market in the coming years.
Automated Packaging Solutions Gaining Traction across the Food Processing Industry
Most leading companies operating in the food processing industry are adopting fully automatic machines for their production and packaging operations. The companies located in the developed markets of North America and Europe are exhibiting a higher demand for automated packaging and production lines to increase their overall production capacity and reduce wastage.
The packaged food manufacturers in emerging markets are recording increasing demand for automated multi-head weighers, which are viewed as advanced packaging and measuring solutions. Multihead weigher manufacturers are offering small and medium-sized food processors with easier financing options. Financial institutions are also offering various loans to upgrade from traditional packaging solutions to fully integrated packaging lines.
These strategies adopted by multihead weighers manufacturers, along with free installation and warranty offers, are resulting in the increased adoption of multihead weighers by both small and large food processors.
