Multi-spectrum metal detector for food industry
Achieve unmatched detection accuracy in your food processing line with this multi-spectrum metal detection solution, designed to enhance product safety by identifying and isolating contaminants across various production environments.

Detects and Isolates Metal Contaminants
The CEIA THS/21-THS/MS21 Series Metal Detector, exclusively developed by CEIA, leverages multi-spectrum technology for unparalleled sensitivity in detecting magnetic, non-magnetic, and stainless steel contaminants. With its advanced auto-learn system, self-calibration, and continuous auto-test functionality, it ensures seamless operation, minimizing operator intervention and production halt. This metal detector is ideal for a variety of food products, including cheese, fresh meat, and poultry, in both solid and liquid forms. It’s USDA-approved and integrates seamlessly into production lines with Ishida VFFS snack food bagmakers. The system supports conveyed, pumped, or free-falling configurations, making it versatile for many industrial environments. Its stainless steel construction offers high resistance to interference, maintaining operational stability even in challenging conditions. Certified to IP66 and IP69K, it complies with stringent sanitation standards, essential for maintaining quality across complex production processes.
