Our industrial metal detectors for packaging and packaging lines detect and reject metal contaminants in your packaged food and pharma applications with a fully automated operation.
Metal detection in food packaging can help you achieve compliance with food safety standards and helps to protect your brand and your customer.
Metal detection for pharmaceutical packaging and packaging lines enhances your inspection process for a range of pharma products to increase manufacturing productivity and minimize the risk of contaminated pharma products reaching the market.
We offer advanced systems for metal detection in food and pharma packaging to provide flexibility and high sensitivity when inspecting packaged products. Our metal detection systems can help you refine your quality control procedures and maximize the effectiveness of your production processes, as well as support compliance with industry standards such as the Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP).
Our industrial metal detectors for packaging are designed to integrate seamlessly into your manufacturing process with minimal disruption and spatial use. In addition, our systems can harmoniously fit onto your current line and inspect your product without halting the flow of your production line.
When your products reach the market, metal contamination can affect both consumer health and your brand image in the industry. You can minimize the risk of contaminants reaching your products with our highly accurate metal detection systems. Therefore, you should consider metal detection in food packaging and packaging lines and metal detection for pharmaceutical packaging and packaging lines.
Using our systems for metal detection in food or pharma packaging can help you maximize efficiency and performance, with automation settings for sensitivity and stability. When metal contamination is detected, our efficient rejection devices are designed to minimize the amount of good product wasted, protecting your bottom line.

Our industrial metal detectors for packaging and packaging lines work on a balanced-coil system that allows for accurate inspection and rejection of metal contamination in packaged products.
When products pass through the aperture, the magnetic field created by the coils will allow metal contaminants to become detectable.
Should any be identified, the system will efficiently remove them from the packaging production line with a variety of possible rejection devices – such as a robotic arm, photogated air blast, or lift-flap.
A signal upon contaminant detection can trigger an audible alarm or visible beacon to make you aware that contamination has been found. You can also choose to stop the line on detection or continue the product flow as normal after rejection of the contaminated product.
Many instances can lead to certain metal contaminants entering your packaged applications, such as:
Therefore, you should consider an industrial metal detector for packaging applications to minimize the risk of these metal contaminants accidentally entering and affecting your products when they reach the market.
Many things can affect the sensitivity of your industrial metal detector for packaging, including:
Explore our range of industrial metal detectors for packaging applications and learn the features and characteristics of each to help find the right system to enhance your metal detection in food packaging or pharmaceutical packaging lines.
