Mesutronic has released the Aluscan metal detector that allows the user to detect smaller metal contaminants down to 0.8 mm in diameter, within aluminium-wrapped products.
The unit can detect contaminants regardless of their shape and orientation.
For increased operation, the control system is now separate, making it more user friendly and easier to work with.
The unit only detects ‘the rest-magnetism’, that ensures reliable detection of even the smallest stainless steel and ferrous metal contamination of products packed in aluminium; for example, retort pouches, ready meals, pies, tartlets, chocolate, muesli bars, chewing gum and soup sachets.
The products travel along a conveyor through a permanent magnet, where it is magnetised and carried over the magnetic sensor bed. For products over 50 mm, an additional sensor can be placed above the product to ensure an accurate level of detection.
As aluminium cannot be magnetised, the magnetic sensors do not ‘see’ the aluminium packaging. Therefore, any products contaminated with ferrous and/or stainless steel are detected and automatically rejected.
