What is the use of a metal detector？

Can food have metal in it?

Our daily food should not contain metals, because metals will be harmful to the human body. However, in some cases, food contact materials (such as containers, packaging, or processing tools) can cause metal to fall. For example, the food production process may also have some metal components in the food mixed together (during the cutting, transportation or packaging process is not aware of small iron filings or other metal fragments will be mixed into the food) this situation is more common in the processing of large quantities of food.

Therefore, in order to avoid metal falling into the food, the country has very strict safety standards for the food industry to ensure the safety of our food. If we consumers find that the food contains metal foreign bodies, at this time, we should immediately stop eating, and call the corresponding manufacturer of the food or the relevant food regulatory agency to report the problem.

What can you use to detect metal?

So how can we, as manufacturers, avoid the problem of metals in food? In fact, in the entire production process, the final packaging step is the most we need to pay attention to. Food will come into contact with metal equipment at different multihead weigher, conveyor, etc. In these places, metal magazine components can fall into food, causing metal contamination.

In this production and packaging line, we can actually use Food Metal Detector machines to avoid the risk of food metal contamination. The Metal Detector can be installed in each step after subpackage,conveyor, packaging to the final packaging, so that we can ensure that the entire process of a product line to avoid metal pollution. Therefore, this equipment is mainly used in the food production line to ensure that there is no metal foreign body in the product to ensure food safety.

In the test of the metal detector, it can be seen that as long as the food contains a little metal component items, the equipment will immediately stop and issue an alarm, so as to remind us that the food contains metal impurities, to avoid unqualified food flow into the market.

Food safety is something that often needs attention in daily life, and its impact on the human body needs to be paid attention to. Therefore, when manufacturers produce packaging, the use of tools such as metal detectors can effectively avoid metal contamination of food.
