ABSTRACT:
A combinatorial weighing method and apparatus for providing a total weight value within set allowable limits even if weight values produced by weighing machines fluctuate due to externally applied vibration or the like. The method includes obtaining an optimum combination by performing combinatorial processing using weight values produced by the weighing machines at a predetermined first point in time following introduction of articles into the weighing machines. Then the total weight of the obtained optimum combination is recalculated by using weight values read from the weighing machines again at a second point in time. It is determined whether the recalculated total weight value of the optimum combination lies within the set allowable limits, and the articles are discharged from those weighing machines corresponding to the optimum combination if the recalculated total weight value lies within the set allowable limits.
