The machines of this series offer a very high degree of sensitivity for the detection of magnetic and non-magnetic metals (iron, stainless steel, aluminium, etc.) in packaged and unpackaged products, even in applications of dry, fresh, frozen or high salt concentration products, with unparalleled reliability.

Distinguished for their ease of use and capability of the detailed configuration of their functions, they are capable of a 24-hour constant operation in demanding industrial environments. Depending on the selected configuration, they can be equipped with the appropriate high-standard conveyor belt, capable of two-way operation.

They offer ease of cleaning and maintenance, with regards to all parts of the machine. Furthermore, they are fully compliant with the IFS Food, HACCP and BRC quality assurance and safety standards in the food industry.

Depending on each model configuration, the METAL SHARK metal detector series indicatively offers:

• Maximum detection performance with high reliability due to the advanced technology of the sensor head as well as the detection method that covers the entire detection area within the frame.
