Metal Detector for Gravity Fed Flow

The E-Z Tec VFS Metal Detector detects minute pieces of ferrous contamination in gravity fed material flow. It is designed to ensure product purity of granular or powdered material, such as snack foods that are packaged in foil or plastic, before it is bagged and sealed.

A timing device marks the contaminated bag so it can be removed from the batch, and only the contaminated package is discarded. Available in either analog or microprocessor-based electronics, the system features a digital control screen with alpha-numeric displays of all preset functions or reject occurrences. Standard size apertures for 4-, 6- and 8-in. pipe are available.
