<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a combination weighing apparatus capable of being continuously operated without reducing a utilization rate.SOLUTION: A combination weighing apparatus 1 includes a plurality of hoppers 5, a plurality of weighing units 11, a selecting unit 84c and a setting unit 84b. The plurality of hoppers stores articles. The weighing unit is provided correspondingly to each of the plurality of hoppers and weighs a weight of the article stored in each hopper. The selecting unit executes a combination calculation on the basis of weighing results obtained from the plurality of weighing units and selects a combination of the hoppers from among the plurality of hoppers, whose total weight becomes a target weight value or more and an allowable upper limit or less. The setting unit sets a corrected allowable upper limit as a corrected value of the allowable upper limit, on the basis of a utilization rate represented by a ratio of the established combination frequency to the combination calculation frequency executed by the selecting unit.</p> |
