Cintex Metal Detector – Shuttle reject belt

• Detecting ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants in packaged food products.
• Ensuring product safety and compliance with food industry standards prior to dispatch.
• Protecting downstream processing equipment from potential damage caused by metal foreign bodies.
• Used in bakeries, confectioneries, meat processing, and ready meal production lines.

Typical throughput

Varies significantly based on product size and line speed; units of this type commonly handle hundreds to thousands of items per minute.

Power supply

Typically 230V, single-phase, 50Hz, with a low power consumption.

Operating temperature

Commonly designed for ambient factory conditions, typically 0°C to 40°C.

Construction materials

Frames and contact parts are typically stainless steel for hygiene and durability in food environments.

Reject mechanism

Shuttle reject systems are common for diverting contaminated products efficiently into a collection bin.

Belt speed

Adjustable belt speeds are typically available to integrate with existing production lines.

Sensitivity

For this class of equipment, sensitivity levels are typically adjustable to detect very small metal particles, depending on product effect.
