Abstract
A combinatorial weighing system which, using a combinatorial weighing apparatus for combining weight data obtained from a plurality of weighing machines to find a combination giving a total combined weight value equal or closest to a target weight value, is capable of performing combinatorial weighing in a case where the target weight value is greater than the maximum load of the weighing apparatus. When such is the case, the system operates by first discharging articles from all of the weighing machines, and then computing the difference between the target weight value and the total weight of the articles discharged from all of the weighing machines in the preceding step.
