Eriez PrecisionGuard X8 Metal Detector

Eriez has launched its PrecisionGuard X8 Metal Detector, which uses high-quality contaminant detection with operator-friendly controls to improve purity and productivity across demanding processing environments. Features include advanced sensing technology, auto-learning capabilities and a large intuitive touchscreen interface.

The system is engineered for the accurate detection of ferrous, nonferrous and stainless-steel contaminants across food, packaging, plastics and other light industrial applications.

Available in a wide range of configurations, including tunnel, tunnel with conveyor, liquid line, vertical drop, vertical form fill seal (VFFS), pharmaceutical and webline models, the system is designed to integrate into new or existing production lines. It also features heavy-duty stainless-steel construction and IP69 washdown rating.

Built-in connectivity, including USB, Ethernet and optional Wi-Fi, provides users with access to event and reject logs, creating a detailed audit trail that supports compliance with HACCP, GFSI, SQF, FSMA and other global safety standards. IoT-ready features are designed to boost traceability, streamline recordkeeping, reduce false rejects, save time and help minimise product waste.
