Suitable for use in dry and wet areas, the Intuity metal-detection coil from Bizerba reliably detects any metallic contaminants in products or bulk goods. Using the multi-simultaneous frequency technology, the metal-detection device uses at least two frequencies to check packed or unpacked goods for steel, stainless steel, iron or non-ferrous residues.
To ensure contaminant-free goods, the metal-detection system generates an electro-magnetic field near the coil. Each product passing the detector leaves a specific pattern, and any deviations from this pattern indicate a contamination. Affected products can be ejected via a pre-installed conveyor belt. Improved product compensation and increased sensi-tivity enable more precise detection. The metal-detection coil especially excels with goods that exhibit a strong intrinsic conductivity.
The system is controlled using the innovative Intuity Control user interface. It enables the pre-selection of products and associated settings to predict the object size to be detected. Intuity includes a multi-product memory and provides HACCP, IFS and BRC compliant quality control including audit check, a password-protected system log and a menu-driven validation system.
Providing a 7" touch display as a standard feature, the system also features high mechanical stability and interference immunity and is largely insensitive to vibrations, impacts and temperature changes. The metaldetection coil can be flexibly integrated into conveyor systems like Varicon+, checkweighers and price labelling systems. As an additional option, it can also be combined with a separating system or a materials slide. Straightforward cleaning is facilitated by the hygienic design not having any dirt-collecting edges. For an efficient wet cleaning of the tunnel, Intuity meets the requirements of IP66/69 for the detection tunnel and IP65 for the entire device.
