METAL DETECTION SOLUTIONS FOR THE CONSUMER GOODS INDUSTRY
Fortress Technology offers a complete range of metal detection solutions to satisfy the unique needs of the consumer goods industry.
CONVEYOR
For a wide variety of packaged / unpackaged products
Fortress Metal Detectors use a robust rectangular head to scan products transported through the aperture through a conveyor belt in food processing and packaging applications. They have a complete all-in-one detection solution with an integrated Vector Conveyor system for easy installation and maximising system performance. Standard detectors are available in a wide range of aperture sizes. They can be made to order with various construction options, including painted aluminum, stainless steel, and BSH extra-rugged casing.
WEB / SURFACE
For wide thin products such as textiles and paper
Web metal detectors are designed for inspecting wide, thin products that are often sheeted or on a roll or web.
Units are typically installed within the production process to protect cutting machinery from potential damage by metal contaminants. For wider applications, the detector may be divided into “Multiscan” sections to assist the operator in retrieving the contaminant.
FREEFALL – BULK
For loose freefalling products such as powders and grains
Gravity metal detectors are ideal for incorporating into existing systems where bulk products, such as flour, rice and cereal, are free falling. The product under test is gravity-fed through a pipe system and travels through the detector’s aperture. Gravity systems typically include an automatic reject system for removing contaminated products from the flow, ensuring that only the highest quality products are packaged for distribution.
