Mettler Toledo Safeline Metal Detector

• Detecting ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants in packaged food products.
• Ensuring product safety and compliance with food industry regulations.
• Protecting downstream processing equipment from metal damage.
• Used in bakeries, confectioneries, meat processing, and ready meal production lines.
• Quality control point before final packaging or dispatch.

Typical throughput

Typically designed for continuous inline processing, handling hundreds to thousands of items per minute depending on product size and line speed.

Power supply

Commonly operates on a single-phase or three-phase supply, typically 230V or 400V, 50Hz.

Belt dimensions

For this class of equipment, belt widths typically range from 200mm to 600mm, with lengths varying based on integration needs.

Detection sensitivity

Units of this type are capable of detecting very small metal particles, with sensitivity levels adjustable based on product characteristics and required standards.

Reject mechanism

Often features an automatic reject system (e.g., air blast, pusher, or retracting belt) to remove contaminated products from the line.

Construction material

Typically constructed from stainless steel for hygiene and durability in food processing environments.

Control interface

Commonly includes a user-friendly HMI (Human Machine Interface) for setting parameters, monitoring performance, and accessing diagnostics.
