WIPOTEC-OCS metal contaminant detectors reliably detect any contamination of your products by the finest metal particles for food processing and packaging. Their usage provides greater customer trust in relation to the best possible product safety. Our detectors can be used both as stand-alone solutions and as space-saving combinations with WIPOTEC-OCS weighing technology.

Neodymium Blocks and Block Magnets are made in a variety of sizes and grades to meet all types of applications.

SANICON is a high performance metal detection system that includes attention to Food Safety within the Sanitary design. SANICON metal detection systems detect all magnetic and non-magnetic metal contaminants (steel, stainless steel, aluminium etc ), even those which may be contained in the product.

The METAL SHARK® compact Metal Detector for Meat Products satisfies the unique challenges of the meat and sausage industry. Easy to attach between stuffer and clipping machines, this metal detector is compatible with most sausage stuffer machinery. Rugged and mobile, the metal detector features a mobile base frame and a stand with integrated gas spring for easy height adjustment (33.5 in. - 47.2 in.).

Eriez SmartX7Link software allows users to remotely monitor, control and download logs for 1 or more Eriez Xtreme metal detectors; remote access is available from anywhere within the local network in which the metal detector resides.

As customers face increasingly stringent product safety standards, MPE has sought to provide a new and better way to prevent both ferrous and nonferrous metals from contaminating final product. The result: MPE’s Pro-Tector efficiently combines the simplicity of a magnetic separator with the reliability of a metal detector in one compact unit. This innovative new system assures the quick, easy removal of metals from the product stream, while its size accommodates the tight spaces commonly found in production facilities.

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.
