General Overview
The Smartbox FPVO program is designed to determine the filling quantity of solid and liquid goods in compliance with Finished Packaging Regulations (FPVO). It allows storage of article numbers, product names, reference densities, and tare weights in permanent memory for later use. For liquid goods, density can be entered to output measurements in milliliters. Automatic capturing of measurement values is available.

Scope of Delivery
The standard configuration includes a balance with Smartbox FPVO and a printer or PC. Optional accessories include a barcode scanner, barcode printer, signal lamp, and secondary display.

Standard Applications

• Smartbox FPVO with Tare Mean Value: This application checks if the net weight of goods is within a prescribed tolerance range using a mean tare value. Statistics printouts provide detailed measurement data.
• Smartbox FPVO with Individual Tare First: Individual tare weights are recorded before packaging, and gross weights are recorded after. The program calculates net fill quantities and checks against tolerance ranges.
• Smartbox FPVO with Individual Tare After: Gross weights are recorded first, followed by tare weights after emptying. The program calculates net fill quantities and checks against tolerance ranges.
• Auxiliary Application - Determining Tare Mean Value: Calculates the mean tare value from a series of empty packages for use in other applications.
• Daily and Weekly Statistics: Provides printouts of daily and weekly statistics for product measurements.
