Eriez is combining its Xtreme metal detector with ProGrade magnets to maximise the amount of metal contaminants that can be detected and removed from products.
The Xtreme metal detector can pick up small amounts of both ferrous and non-ferrous metal contaminants in sanitary and non-sanitary conditions. According to the manufacturer, this metal detector line has been optimised to strike a balance between absolute detection of all metal contaminants and the elimination of false signals that can slow down production.
When combined with ProGrade magnetic separators, engineered for the removal of ferrous metal and work-hardened stainless steel, the arrangement offers higher product yields and maximum protection, says Eriez.
Working in conjunction, the Eriez ProGrade magnets remove the ferrous contamination while the Eriez Xtreme Metal Detector focuses on non-ferrous metals such as aluminium, copper, brass and stainless steel, the company says.
According to Eriez, together these products offer the greatest protection against dangerous, unwanted metals in product or process flow, and ensures metal contamination is minimised while maximising final product quality and purity.
This approach will help customers avoid expensive equipment downtime and product recalls while ensuring they remain in compliance with HACCP International Food Standards, Eriez claims.
Eriez will exhibit on stand H130 at AUSPACK 2019.
