Integrated metal detector and checkweigher for small/medium formats
Ensure precise quality control and contaminant-free products while optimizing space and operator efficiency in your high-speed production line with this integrated solution.
Detects Metal Contaminants and Weighs Products
The Compact Combi Metal Detector + Checkweigher from Antares Vision Group is a dual-function inspection system designed for seamless integration into various production lines. This system uniquely combines metal detection and precise checkweighing in a single monoblock unit, optimizing both space and operator interaction. Equipped with a 12” color touchscreen for intuitive control, the system supports multi-frequency and Multi-Spectrum technology, enhancing detection in products with varying properties, including those with light metallized wrappers.
Primarily used in food, beverage, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics, this equipment ensures the detection of metal contaminants while simultaneously verifying product weight. Handling a wide range of end-products such as processed cheese, canned beverages, and blister-packed tablets, it achieves speeds up to 90 m/min and manages products weighing up to 3200 g with display divisions starting at 0.1 g.
This system meets high standards of automation and integration, complete with data collection software that supports communication with external systems, fulfilling Industry 4.0 criteria. Its robust stainless steel AISI 304 construction provides durability and easy integration into demanding industrial settings, while remote assistance capability reduces downtime and maintenance costs. Compliant with CE, MID, BRC, IFS, and HACCP standards, it guarantees product safety and regulatory compliance across industries.
