Safeline - Used Safeline Metal Detector

Applications & Use Cases

• Detecting metallic contaminants in packaged food products to ensure consumer safety and compliance.
• Identifying metal foreign objects in pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals during production.
• Inspecting non-food items such as textiles, plastics, and recycled materials for metal inclusions.
• Quality control in bulk material handling to protect downstream processing equipment from damage.

Typical Specifications

Typical aperture size

Varies significantly; commonly ranges from 100mm to 600mm width, and 50mm to 300mm height, depending on product size.

Power supply

Typically single-phase 230V AC, 50Hz, with specific amperage requirements varying by model.

Throughput capacity

Dependent on conveyor speed and product size; units of this type can typically process hundreds of items per minute.

Detection sensitivity

Commonly capable of detecting ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants down to sub-millimetre sizes, influenced by product effect.

Construction material

Typically stainless steel (grade 304 or 316) for hygiene and durability, especially in food processing environments.

Operating environment

Often designed for industrial settings, with IP ratings commonly ranging from IP54 to IP66 for dust and water ingress protection.
