Mettler Toledo Safeline has launched a new metal detector designed specifically for the inspection of free falling products in vertical packaging applications.

The new ST Series metal detector features revolutionary Profile software which is available in fixed or multi frequency configurations. An advanced detection coil system and new detector head geometry deliver incredible levels of sensitivity with improvements greater than 30% in typical food production environments. 

Zero Metal Free Zone (ZMFZ) technology allows the metal detector to be installed in the confined space typically found between the outlet of a multi head weigher and the inlet to the VFFS bag maker.

Just like other Profile detectors, the ST Series offers reduced manufacturing costs and greater levels of production uptime through the development of a unique Condition Monitoring system. This permanently monitors key elements of the metal detectors functionality and its performance levels.
