Metal detectors are used to discover all kinds of metal impurities during the production process. Discovering metal impurities in light industry (textile, tobacco, plastics, …) is especially important for the customer’s safety (at the end of production process) and for protecting the following processing procedure (at the start of production process).
Metal detectors in light industry have the following common properties:

• detection of magnetic and nonmagnetic particles,
• high sensitivity, stability and precision,
• minimal number of false detections due to embedded analog and digital filters,
• automatic calibration for several years of stable operating,
• ability to detect the length of a metal impurity
• precise manual or automatic product compensation (self-learning),
• possibility of entering 30 different product settings,
• transparent and user friendly multi level menus,
• password protected critical settings,
• easy replacement of the power supply or processing module in case of malfunction,
• possibility of printing messages using the RS232 or RS485 communication,
• possibility of following detections or setting basic parameters on a PC using the RS232, RS485 or Ethernet communication,
• easy installation, removal and cleaning,
• casing made of high quality stainless or construction steel,
• adaptation to customer’s needs.

MDR has developed the following metal detectors according to customer’s needs:
