Contamination Detection
Pure material, protected product — metal detection and foreign-material separation before it reaches your machine.
The challenge
Keep contaminants out of product and machines
A single piece of metal or foreign material in your regrind or raw feed can damage an extruder, ruin a batch, or reach a customer. Detection and separation protect both product and equipment.
- Contamination in feed — metal and foreign bodies hidden in regrind and raw material.
- Machine protection — keeping contaminants out of extruders, screws and dies.
- Product quality & safety — meeting food-safety and quality standards for finished packaging.
- Recall risk — catching contamination before it leaves the plant.
