Abstract
A mixing-weighing combination weigher of the present invention comprises a plurality of kind-based groups (G-G) each of which is made up of a plurality of combination hoppers () fed with objects to be weighed, the kind-based groups being fed with different kinds of objects to be weighed; and a control means (); and the control means () is configured to carry out a process in which combination calculation is performed to find combination weight values for each of the kind-based groups, and combination weight values of a selection number predetermined for each kind are selected from the combination weight values based on a predetermined kind-based combination selection condition; a process in which combination calculation is performed in such a manner that one combination weight value is selected for each kind from the combination weight values selected in this process and selected combination weight values are combined to find one all-kind combination total value within an allowable range; and a discharge process for discharging the objects to be weighed from the combination hoppers () corresponding to that all-kind combination total value.
