WIPOTEC SWA2-900A – Compact Industrial PC | Checkweigher & Dynamic Weighing Control Platform
Engineering Background
WIPOTEC is a globally recognized leader in high-precision dynamic weighing and checkweigher systems, headquartered in Kaiserslautern, Germany. Their SWA series represents the core computing and control backbone of WIPOTEC’s checkweigher lines, deployed across pharmaceutical, food & beverage, logistics, and precision manufacturing environments worldwide. The SWA2-900A is a compact industrial PC module engineered specifically for real-time signal acquisition, weight data processing, and machine control integration within WIPOTEC’s modular weighing platforms.
Product Positioning
The SWA2-900A serves as the central processing unit within WIPOTEC checkweigher and dynamic weighing systems. It replaces aging or failed control modules in existing WIPOTEC installations, enabling production lines to resume operation without full system replacement. For procurement engineers managing MRO (Maintenance, Repair & Operations) inventories or capital equipment upgrades, this module represents a cost-effective, drop-in compatible solution backed by verified sourcing.

System Architecture & Signal Flow
The SWA2-900A operates as the central node in WIPOTEC’s distributed checkweigher architecture:
- Input: Analog weight signals from load cell / electromagnetic force restoration (EMFR) sensors → ADC conversion → real-time digital filtering
- Processing: Weight value computation, tolerance band comparison, statistical data accumulation (OEE, reject rates, weight histograms)
- Output: Reject actuator control signals, HMI display data, upstream/downstream PLC communication via fieldbus or digital I/O, data export to MES/ERP via Ethernet
- Operator Interface: Interfaces with WIPOTEC touchscreen HMI panels for recipe management, calibration, and production reporting
Sourcing & Quality Verification
- Source: Procured through authorized industrial surplus channels, OEM-certified distributors, and verified MRO supply networks
- Inspection: Each unit undergoes visual inspection, connector integrity check, and functional power-on verification prior to shipment
- Documentation: CE marking compliance documentation available upon request; original WIPOTEC part labels retained
- Counterfeit Prevention: Konmask maintains a zero-tolerance policy on counterfeit components — all units traceable to verified supply chain sources
- Packaging: ESD-safe anti-static packaging with foam cushioning for international transit

Technical FAQ
Q: Is the SWA2-900A compatible with all WIPOTEC checkweigher models?
A: The SWA2-900A is primarily designed for WIPOTEC HC-A, HC-M, and SWA-series platforms. Compatibility with other WIPOTEC models should be confirmed against your system’s BOM or electrical schematic. Contact us with your machine serial number for verification.
Q: Can Konmask supply the WIPOTEC configuration software or firmware?
A: Konmask supplies hardware modules only. WIPOTEC system software and firmware are proprietary and must be obtained through WIPOTEC’s official service channels. We can advise on the process.
Q: What is the lead time for this module?
A: Standard lead time is 3–7 business days from order confirmation. Expedited options are available — contact us for urgent requirements.
Q: Do you offer volume pricing for multiple units?
A: Yes. Volume discounts are available for orders of 3+ units. Please contact us directly for a tailored quotation.
Q: Is installation support available?
A: Konmask provides remote technical guidance for module swap-out procedures. On-site commissioning support can be arranged through our partner network.
