Solutions
When is metal detection the right choice?
Metal detection is often suitable when the main risk is metallic contamination, or when the goal is to protect downstream machinery from metal fragments.
When should we consider X-ray inspection?
X-ray inspection may be considered when the application requires detection of dense foreign objects beyond metal, or when packaged product inspection is required.
Technical
What information is needed to specify a system?
Helpful details include product type, flow rate, packaging, line layout, reject method, available space, hygiene requirements and the contamination risks you need to manage.
Can detection systems be integrated into existing lines?
Yes, many systems can be adapted to existing production lines. The best solution depends on space, product presentation, line speed and how the reject or alarm process should work.
