Increased sensitivity
tna has introduced the new tna hyper-detect 5 metal detector. The patented design of the new system improves metal detection capabilities while eliminating degradation in product transfer to deliver safe product throughput and minimise rejects.
It is said to be the world’s first non-symmetrical balanced coil metal detector with a conical aperture into the detector. While conventional ‘throat’ metal detectors have been used by manufacturers to inspect the product before it enters the bag to allow the use of metallised film, these limit product throughput and packaging speeds. The integrated design of the new hyper-detect 5 allows the metal detector to be positioned much closer to the multi-head weigher, increasing the speed at which the bagger can produce finished bags.
It is able to detect ferrous contaminants from 0.8mm to 0.9mm, non-ferrous pieces up to 1mm and non-magnetic stainless steel from 1mm to 1.2mm.
