Improve Food Processing with Bunting Metal Detection and Magnetic Separation

At Bunting, we know that protecting your food product from metal contamination is essential. That’s why we’ve created a “Perfect Plant” system for food processing manufacturers, creating a system that integrates our magnetic separation and metal detection equipment to protect your product and process from the harm metal contamination can cause.

Metal contamination is a big problem for food processing. If metal contamination is allowed to remain in your food product, it can have enormous consequences in the form of product recalls, a sullied reputation, and worst of all—the potential for harm to be caused to your loyal customers. Additionally, metal contamination can cause severe damage to the other equipment in your facility. This means that not only will you have to suffer the expenses of repairing and replacing equipment, but you will also have to endure the extremely high cost of downtime and lost productivity.

Bunting Designs Custom Solutions for All Types of Food Processing Manufacturers

No matter what kind of food manufacturing facility you are operating—whether it is a bakery, a cheese or vegetable processing plant, a spice plant, a brewery, or even a pet food plant, Bunting engineers can provide you with a comprehensive, custom designed metal removal solution for your facility. Our magnetic separation equipment and metal detectors work in tandem to remove metal contamination from your product at multiple points in your manufacturing process, ensuring no residual metal contamination will remain. Our magnetic separation equipment is able to remove the finest particles of ferrous metal contamination—even those invisible to the naked eye—and our metal detectors are able to detect and remove all forms of metal contamination, whether it is ferrous, non-ferrous, or stainless steel.

Bunting has developed many products designed to serve the unique needs of the food industry. For example, our meatLINE™ metal detector was designed specifically for the challenges associated with handling and detecting metal in meat being processed. Our Corrosion Resistant Magnetic Liquid Trap, or CR-MLT, was designed to handle the demands of processing heavily acidic foods, such as tomato and citrus based products. Our meTRON™ 07 CI Metal Detector can detect metal even in foods that have already been packaged, making it an excellent choice for your final proofing stage. All of Bunting’s magnetic separation and metal detection products meet food industry safety and sanitation standards, and we were the first company in the metal separation industry to earn USDA and AMS acceptance for our sanitary-grade metal separators.
