Loma 7000 metal detector checkweigher

• Detecting metallic contaminants and verifying package weight in packaged food lines.
• Ensuring compliance with weight regulations and food safety standards for confectionery and snacks.
• Used in bakeries for checking individual product weight and foreign object detection post-packaging.
• Suitable for quality control in ready meal production, ensuring correct portioning and contaminant absence.
• Integrated into dairy product lines for final inspection of packaged goods.

Typical throughput

For this class of equipment, throughput commonly ranges from 60 to 300 packs per minute, depending on product size and weight.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a 230V, single-phase, 50Hz electrical supply.

Compressed air

Pneumatic reject systems commonly require a clean, dry compressed air supply, typically 5-7 bar.

Construction material

As described, the frame is stainless steel, which is standard for food processing environments due to hygiene requirements.

Weighing accuracy

For this class of checkweigher, accuracy is typically within +/- 0.5g to +/- 2g, depending on product weight and speed.

Reject mechanism

Pneumatic reject systems are commonly found on units of this type, offering fast and efficient removal of non-conforming products.

Operating environment

Designed for typical food production environments, often with an IP65 rating for washdown capability.
