General Features
PROTECTOR MF Metal Detection System Features
- High detection sensitivity for all metals and the highest possible resistance to vibration and electromagnetic interference.
- The proven separation unit (separation slide) guarantees safe and reliable operation even in applications with high material throughput rates or a high proportion of flakes or regrind.
- The fast-acting separation slide ensures safe separation of metal particles from free-falling granules during initial filling and refilling operations while keeping the loss of good material to a minimum.
- The compact design facilitates the installation of heavy conveying, mixing, and dosing units.
- Auto-Set (automatic teach-in function) or manual product compensation for improved adaptation to the specific conductivity of the product being inspected (no fixed settings)
- Preset operating parameters ensure exceptionally easy operation
Function
Even small metal particles in molten plastic can cause damage to extruders, injection molding machines, and blow molding machines that is costly and time-consuming to repair. As the use of plastic regranulate increases, so does the risk of metal contamination, potentially causing blockages in nozzles and filters. However, machine breakdowns, production losses, and delivery delays are not the only consequences.
The cost of repairing an extruder screw or barrel destroyed by a single large piece of metal far exceeds the cost of a PROTECTOR MF system. In the production of plastics, compounds, composites, etc., the PROTECTOR MF metal separator ensures product quality. PROTECTOR MF metal separators increase machine availability and productivity and provide a rapid return on investment.
