Industrial Metal Detectors

Mettler Toledo metal detectors protect your brand and ensure consumer safety through a wide range of solutions for the food and non-food industries. Industrial metal detectors are devices that use sophisticated technology to detect metal — metal particles or fragments — in products.

In the food industry, metal detectors are used across different stages of production, from raw material intake and semi-finished products to the inspection of packaged goods. TRIM is the general distributor of Mettler Toledo metal detectors for Serbia. The range includes models adapted to different types of food products: dry, frozen, hot, wet, seasoned, liquid, paste-like, granular, and powdered products.

Detection is possible for both packaged and unpackaged products, regardless of packaging type.

Metal detectors are a key control point on the production line. They enable higher product quality and safe distribution without risk to consumer health.

With high sensitivity in detecting ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless-steel contaminants, as well as stable operation, they represent a highly reliable solution for food product inspection.

FAQ

An industrial metal detector is a device that checks raw or processed food products, non-food products and pharmaceutical products for the presence of metal contamination. Contaminated products are removed from the production line to help maintain product safety.

Metal detection systems can detect three main types of metal:

  1. Ferrous metals – iron is the easiest to detect because it is magnetic and conducts electricity well.
  2. Non-ferrous metals – brass, copper, aluminium and lead are not magnetic, but they are good conductors.
  3. Stainless steel – both magnetic and non-magnetic types can be challenging to detect, especially non-magnetic grades such as 316 and 304, which have lower electrical conductivity.
