CEIA Metal Detector (REFURBISHED) Right-to-Left (1210)

• Detecting metallic contaminants in packaged food products to ensure product safety and compliance.
• Used in bakery, confectionery, dairy, and meat processing lines for final product inspection.
• Integrated into production lines for cereals, nuts, grains, and snack foods to prevent foreign object contamination.
• Suitable for inspecting fresh produce, fish, and poultry to meet quality control standards.
• Critical for BRC, FDA, and USDA compliance in food manufacturing environments.

Typical throughput

Throughput for this class of equipment can vary significantly based on product size and line speed, but units commonly handle hundreds to thousands of items per minute.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a standard single-phase industrial power supply, commonly 230V, 50Hz in the UK.

Construction material

Metal detectors for food processing are typically constructed from AISI 316L stainless steel for hygiene and corrosion resistance, meeting EU, FDA, and USDA standards.

Search head aperture

For this class of equipment, search head apertures commonly range, with a 400mm x 200mm opening being suitable for a wide range of packaged goods.

Conveyor belt material

Conveyor belts are typically made from food-grade materials such as 2-ply PU (polyurethane) for durability and hygiene.

Detection sensitivity

Modern metal detectors commonly offer multi-frequency operation to optimise sensitivity to ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants while minimising product effect.

Product memory

Advanced units commonly feature extensive product memory, allowing for quick recall of settings for various product types.

• What types of metal can this detector identify?

  Units of this type, especially those with multi-frequency technology, are designed to detect ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants. The specific sensitivity will depend on the product and contaminant size.

• Is this metal detector suitable for wet or washdown environments?

• How does automatic product learning work?

• What is 'product effect' and how is it minimised?

• What certifications are relevant for this type of equipment in the food industry?

• Can the conveyor speed be adjusted?

Metal detectors for food processing remain reliable workhorses in quality control operations. Buyers typically value their durability and consistent contamination detection capability. When purchasing used units, inspecting calibration history and sensitivity settings proves essential. Industry sentiment favours machines with straightforward maintenance records and minimal downtime. Common strengths include robust construction, straightforward operation, and cost-effectiveness compared to new equipment. Prospective buyers should verify functional testing documentation and assess integration compatibility with existing production lines.
