Designed for the flour, grain, bulk material and free-flowing product industries, the METAL SHARK GF (gravity free-fall) metal detector promises maximum detection of magnetic and nonmagnetic contaminants. Generally integrated into a free-flowing product pipeline and enclosed in a 100% stainless steel housing, Cassel metal detectors help food processors and others to meet HACCP, IFS, BRC and GMP safety standards. The powered reject system, framing and controls are available in sanitary design for food-grade process applications.

The meatLINE detects and separates ferrous and non-ferrous metals from ground meat products as they are pumped toward stuffers or patty formers. The uniquely designed reject mechanism will remove metal contaminant without damaging the integrity of the ground meat.

The LIQUISCAN PL is a metal separator for pumped products. When metal is detected, the separator valve automatically redirects the contaminated product into a special container. LIQUISCAN PL metal separators are supplied on a stainless steel frame suitable for wall or table mounting. 

This high-quality, high-performance magnet assures the efficient separation of the smallest ferrous and magnetised stainless steel contaminants.

MPI’s beltless magnetic conveyors efficiently move ferrous metal, stampings, turnings, chips, fasteners, scrap and more. Powerful permanent magnets below a nonmagnetic stainless steel slider bed, transport parts without fail and without downtime. As the magnets move, objects travel along the conveyor and into a bin for easy removal or transport.

Space and cost savings is obtained with Anritsu's integrated inspection solution, the combination checkweigher and metal detector system. In one system you can receive high accuracy weighing and metal detection. This combination system is an integration of the SSV series checkweigher and duw series metal detector. This integrated solution combines the best-of-both worlds for safety compliance in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

If you’re simply meeting your HACCP foreign material spec, you may be missing many potential cost-saving opportunities. Learn how greater detection levels can reduce your false reject rates as well as minimize or possibly eliminate your need to rework products.

Watch this short demo and discover what you might be missing with only one to two frequencies in multi-frequency metal detection.

In this podcast, Rob Tiernay, Director of Sales at Anritsu, discusses with Food Online Voices how food manufacturers can strike a balance between improving profit margins while ensuring product safety. Additionally, Tiernay explores some of the needs, both in the long and short term, which food manufacturers should account for when deciding if a metal detection or X-Ray inspection solution is right for their company. Further, Tiernay elaborates on the advancements that product inspection solutions have made in detecting low-density contaminants in food products. Finally, Tiernay discusses setting up new manufacturing lines and the best possible point of foreign body detection based on food product type.

In this podcast, Rob Rogers, Senior Advisor of Food Safety and Regulation with Mettler-Toledo, discusses with Food Online Voices some recent, high-profile examples of foreign bodies causing food recalls. Further, Rogers mentions the most common types of foreign body contaminants causing food recalls and what food manufacturers can do to prevent them from entering the market. Additionally, Rogers addresses the long-term benefits food manufacturers, processors, and packagers will see from implementing foreign body detection systems and offers advice to companies seeking metal detection and X-Ray inspection systems. Finally, Rogers mentions FSMA, how it is impacting the food manufacturing industry, and how it is helping innovate the foreign body detection systems market.
