Metal detector prevents plastics recycling damage
In recycling granulated PVC-u window frame plastics a plastics moulding company is using a metal detector to remove any remaining metal that could damage the granulators.
With throughput of up to 400 units per minute, the Raycon XS is a cost effective solution to the inspection of small packs of butter, cheese, instant soups and other powder mixes, meat and sausages, even when aluminium foil or metallised film packaging is used.
As X-ray inspection is not sensitive to moisture and salts in the product, a very wide range of products can be reliably checked for both metallic and non-metallic contamination, including glass, ceramic, stone, bone and most plastics in addition to identifying missing, underweight or broken product inside opaque and sealed packaging.
The 200mm wide conveyor belt of the new model, suitable for products with a maximum width of 165mm and maximum height of 105mm, augments the Raycon range to provide X-ray inspection for products up 380mm wide.
The use of the well-proven modular conveyor system design provides the flexibility needed to meet the requirements of a wide variety of product and manufacturing applications.
