Abstract
A product with a transponder is conveyed along a measurement line of a weighing device and an actual weight value is determined. An exchange of data with the transponder and weighing system enable automatic adjustment of the weighing system for a specified product type and/or sorting of the product based on comparisons of the actual weight value with a target weight value.

20. A method for weighing a product, comprising:
-
conveying a product having a transponder along a measurement line of a weighing system;
receiving data from the transponder; and
automatically adjusting the weighing system, prior to determining weight of the product, using the received data from the transponder; and
determining an actual weight value of the product using the weighing system. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)

28. A method for weighing, comprising:
-
conveying a product having a transponder configured to exchange data along a measuring line of a weighing system configured to determine an actual weight value for the product;
upon determining the actual weight value, writing the determined actual weight value to the transponder;
comparing the determined actual weight value with a target weight value; and
generating a sort control signal based on the comparison. - View Dependent Claims (29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35)

36. A weighing system comprising:
-
an RFID communication device configured to exchange data contactless with a transponder connected to a deposited product; and
a weighing device, coupled with the RFID communication device, for determination of an actual weight value of the product, the weighing device having a weighing conveyor belt and an adjustment device, the weighing conveyor belt serving as a measurement line on which the products are conveyed, the adjustment device is configured to automatically adjust the weighing system based on information read from the transponder during the contactless exchange of data - View Dependent Claims (37, 38, 39, 40, 41)

42. A weighing system comprising:
-
an RFID communication device for carrying out a contactless exchange of data with a transponder connected to a deposited product; and
a weighing device, coupled with the RFID communication device, for the determination of an actual weight value of the deposited product, the weighing device includes a weighing conveyor belt to serve as a measurement line, on which the products are conveyed, a transmitter device to write the actual weight value determined to the transponder, a comparator device to compare the written actual weight value with a target weight value, and a controller device for generating a sort control signal depending on the weight value comparison. - View Dependent Claims (43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49)
