Safeline - Safeline metal detector

Applications & Use Cases

• 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 damage caused by metal foreign bodies.
• Used in bakeries, confectioneries, meat processing, and ready-meal production lines.

Typical Specifications

Typical throughput

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

Power supply

Units are typically single-phase (1Ph) or three-phase (3Ph), with common voltages being 230V or 400V, 50Hz for the UK market.

Construction material

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

Detection sensitivity

Dependent on aperture size and product effect, but modern units can detect very small metal particles.

Footprint

For this class of equipment, the footprint is largely determined by the belt length and width, plus control panel and frame.

Operating environment

Designed for use in typical food production settings, often with an IP rating suitable for washdown.
