Function:

The INTUITY metal detector with closed, rectangular aperture primarily is used in the food industry for the inspection of piece goods on a conveyor belt or a material slide. It detects all magnetic and non-magnetic metal contaminations (steel, stainless steel, aluminium, ...) even if such contaminations are enclosed in the product.

When a metal is detected a signalling device or a reject unit can be activated, or a signal is sent to the process control system. The closed design of the INTUITY metal detector offers the advantage of a very high metal sensitivity throughout the complete tunnel area, which is why this metal detector is used for highprecision detection tasks (e.g. in the food industry). INTUITY metal detectors can be combined with conveyor belts including various types of reject units (air-blast nozzles, pusher, reject slide, ...).

Performance features:

• Highest metal detection performance due to multi-simultaneous-frequency technology
• Reduced faulty rejects of products due to high mechanical stability and high interference immunity; largely insensitive to vibration, impacts, and temperature fluctuations
• Hygienic design, easy to clean, no dirt-collection edges
• Easy and safe operation
• Audit-safe solution

Used for:

• Outgoing goods inspection of food materials acc. to IFS, BRC, HACCP, ISO 22000 etc.
• Quality inspection of incoming goods
• Machine protection in fruit and vegetable processing

Typical fields of application:

• Food industry
• Chemical industry
• Pharmaceutical industry
• Packaging industry
• Cosmetics industry

Complete systems:

Complete systems comprising INTUITY metal detector, conveyor belt, reject unit, sensors, and integrated software solutions can be easily integrated in the production line. All the components are optimally matched and thus guarantee highest operational reliability and detection accuracy. With the Higher Level Security option the system is ready for audit-checks according to all the established rules and standards in the food industry.
