Electromagnetic detection system designed for integration into conveyor belts to perform quality control in food processing. Ideal for reliable detection of metal fragments (ferrous, non-ferrous and stainless steel) in products in transit, allowing minimization of rejections, protection of process equipment and ensuring compliance with food safety standards.
Key features:
- Multi-metal detection: Detects ferrous, non-ferrous and stainless steel particles using coil technologies and adaptive signal processing.
- Inline integration: Designed for mounting above or around the conveyor belt with quick height and width adjustments for different product formats.
- Hygienic and robust design: Industrial construction casing (optional in AISI 304/316 stainless steel), with easy-to-clean finish and IP protection ratings for food production environments.
- Easy configuration and calibration: Control interface with product-adjustable parameters (sensitivity, belt speed, step size) and autotuning functions to maintain sensitivity with product changes.
- Outputs and control: Output signals for integration with PLC/SCADA, visual and acoustic alarms, and automatic rejection options (pushers, blowers, diverters) or line stoppage.
- Data management: Event logging, rejection counters and communication options (digital ports, Ethernet, OPC/Modbus according to configuration) for traceability and quality.
Typical applications:
- Food industries (meat, dairy, bakery, fruits and vegetables, processed products)
- Packaging centers and packaging lines
- Inspection and quality control plants
Customer benefits:
- Reduction of metal contamination risks and customer complaints
- Protection of machinery in later process stages
- Improvement of traceability and compliance with HACCP plans and quality audits
- Increased efficiency by automating detection and rejection
Purchase and installation considerations:
- Select appropriate sensitivity based on product type, particle size and orientation
- Confirm compatibility with conveyor belt speed and step width
- Evaluate hygiene requirements (IP certification, stainless steel finishes) if working with washdowns and wet environments
- Define rejection method (mechanical, pneumatic, electronic) and integration requirements with existing control systems
Associated options and services (depending on supplier):
- Variants for different belt widths and step heights
- Automatic rejection kits and mechanical adapters
- Installation, commissioning, and in situ calibration services
- Preventive maintenance contracts and periodic calibration
If desired, I can adapt this description including specific technical specifications (minimum sensitivity in mm, maximum belt width, maximum speed, electrical power requirements) once you have those data or the equipment's technical sheet.
