Product Inspection: Application Solution — Bulk Peanuts

Ensuring consumer safety and protecting production line equipment requires high-performance detection of metal contaminants in free-falling bulk materials. For applications involving products like grains, powders, and granules, a drop-through system can be particularly effective. These systems utilize advanced multi-frequency technology, which allows them to detect a wide range of metal types with high sensitivity and accuracy. This capability ensures that even the smallest metal contaminants are identified and rejected from the production line.

The newest systems feature Multiscan technology and multiple user-selectable frequencies to improve sensitivity and contaminant detection. When utilized in a legume application, a system of this type successfully addressed contamination concerns from metal scraps originating in processing equipment.
