Conveyor Metal Detector

Conveyor Metal Detectors combine a custom-engineered conveyor with advanced metal detection technology to deliver seamless inspection and smooth product flow. Built for handling packaged foods, unpackaged goods, plastics, and recyclables, these systems provide high-sensitivity detection of ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants before they can compromise product quality or damage downstream equipment.

Each unit is fully customized to match the production environment, with options for tunnel size, belt width, reject mechanisms, and integration into automation systems. Systems arrive factory-calibrated and ready for installation, eliminating the need for additional setup or alignment.

For food and packaging operations, stainless steel construction and hygienic design ensure compatibility with washdown environments and compliance with food safety regulations. In recycling and plastics applications, corrosion-resistant and heavy-duty builds withstand tough operating conditions while maintaining accuracy.

With intuitive touch-screen controls, automatic product learning, and digital signal processing, Conveyor Metal Detectors adapt to a wide range of products and operating conditions. Rugged components and 24/7 reliability make them a trusted choice for processors looking to reduce downtime, prevent costly recalls, and maintain consistent product quality.

Conveyor Metal Detectors are used to ensure product safety, protect equipment, and maintain compliance across industries.

Food Processing and Packaging

• Inspect packaged and unpackaged products including bakery goods, frozen meals, dairy, meats, snacks, powders, and bulk ingredients

• Support HACCP, FSMA, FDA, USDA, IFS, BRC, SQF, and GFSI food safety programs

• Integrate with reject systems such as pushers, diverters, or air blast units for automatic removal of contaminated products

Recycling and Plastics

• Detect contaminants in shredded plastics, granules, pellets, resins, and bulk fibers

• Protect downstream equipment such as grinders, extruders, and shredders from tramp metal damage

• Retrofit friendly solutions for inspection lines handling conveyed recyclables and bulk industrial products

By combining accurate detection with an integrated conveyor, these systems reduce downtime, prevent costly recalls, and deliver reliable inspection in both food and industrial environments.

Conveyor Metal Detectors integrate a tunnel style detection coil and a conveyor into one system. As products travel along the conveyor, they pass through the coil, which scans for ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants.

If metal is detected, the coil generates a signal that is processed by the control unit. The system then triggers the chosen response, such as stopping the belt, rejecting the product, or activating an alarm.

With advanced features such as automatic product learning, dual frequency operation (multiMODE), and product imaging software (imagePHASE), Conveyor Metal Detectors deliver fast, accurate, and repeatable inspection across a wide range of applications.
