Provided is a combination scale capable of discharging objects to be weighed with suitable variation. In one embodiment this combination scale is provided with the following: a collection conveyer (3) which conveys and discharges objects to be weighed; a plurality of weighing conveyers (1) which convey supplied objects to be weighed and discharge the same to the collection conveyer (3); a control unit (5) which finds one combination of weighing conveyors (1) having a combined weight of the objects to be weighed that falls within a target weight range; and an operation setting display device (4) which inputs in advance a desired conveyance length for the objects being weighed, which is the length of the objects being weighed when conveyed by the collection conveyer (3). In addition, the control unit (5) is configured so as to determine a start timing for the conveyance operation of the weighing conveyers (1) selected for combination, so that the conveyance length for the objects being weighed becomes the desired value that has been input in advance and so that objects to be weighed discharged from the weighing conveyers (1) are positioned at different positions on the collection conveyer (3); and so as to cause the weighing conveyers (1) to start a conveyance operation on the basis of such timing. |
