The performance of the metal detection task is a crucial step and implicates a big responsibility. In the case of failures, there is a chance that contaminated products will reach the consumers. Continue reading “Training on the metal detection procedure”
Include the metal detectors in your machine maintenance program – Choose a qualified company for the maintenance, which gives you a guarantee of an optimal operation of your detector. Integrate the detector calibration in this maintenance service. Continue reading “Tips for an optimal operation of your metal control program”
The orientation effect appears in the case of metal bodies in the form of a needle or a thread. In one direction they are detected, but not in the perpendicular direction. Depending on the materials (ferrous and non-ferrous), the effect is opposite. Continue reading “The orientation effect”
In a daily situation, there are other sources of failures that must not be underestimated. These failures may be the cause of contaminated products arriving at your consumers. Continue reading “And what are the other sources of failures?”
When your process runs smoothly without interruptions, you have less chance of fails in the metal detection system. Interruptions can negatively affect the reliability of your detection system: Continue reading “What does it take to ensure a proper operation of your metal detection program?”
Products packed in in metallised packages are obviously more complex to detect. With a few modifications of your process it will be possible. Continue reading “The detection on products packed in metallised packages”
The rejected products are collected in a closed bin. Only authorised employees have access to this bin. Continue reading “What to do with the rejected products?”
The test pieces will be placed on or inside the product, in such a way, that the test piece passes through the centre of the opening of the detector. Continue reading “How to place the test pieces at the most difficult place to be detected?”
The metal detector will be placed in your production line. All products pass through the detector and are inspected. Contaminated products will be rejected.
When you install a metal detector, you are modifying your food safety system. Continue reading “What is used for metal detection”
All detection methods have their minimal detection limits, inclusive metal detection. The factor which restricts the most is your product. On the second place there is the type of metal. You wish to reject all the metal, but unfortunately, this is impossible. Continue reading “Determination of the minimum rejected body size”
