Key Advantages
Applications
Sesotec VARICON+ GLS is a conveyor metal-detection system developed for reliable detection of ferrous, non-ferrous and stainless-steel foreign bodies in packaged or unpackaged products on the production line.
Used with the GLS metal detector, the system provides precise and reliable metal inspection through high mechanical stability and advanced signal-processing technology.
- Detection of ferrous metal contaminants
- Detection of non-ferrous metals
- Detection of stainless-steel foreign bodies
- Detection of metal particles embedded in the product
- Inspection of packaged and unpackaged products
With its closed detection head and rectangular tunnel aperture, the GLS metal detector is designed for high-sensitivity inspection of individual products and bulk materials conveyed on a belt.
- DSP signal-processing technology
- Quartz-stabilised operating frequency
- High metal-detection sensitivity
- Automatic product compensation
- High mechanical stability
- High immunity to interference
- Resistance to vibration, impact and temperature changes
- Standard belt widths: 200–500 mm
- Effective tunnel height: 100–350 mm
- Inspection of individual or packaged products up to 50 kg
- Compact system design thanks to a short metal-free zone
- GLS-series detection coil
Detection technology with a short metal-free zone allows conveyor length to be kept to a minimum. Robust stainless-steel construction supports system stability and detection sensitivity.
The open, easily accessible frame design enables fast cleaning and hygiene procedures. Surface finish and conveyor design were developed with food-industry cleaning and hygiene requirements in mind.
- Hygienic open-profile frame
- Easy-access design
- Easy cleaning
- Robust stainless-steel construction
- High system stability
- VARICON+D:Developed for dry production areas.
- VARICON+W:Developed for wet or more demanding operating environments.
- VARICON+W can be configured with a linked-belt system for packaged-product inspection in wet areas.
When metal contamination is detected, the system can be used with application-specific automatic reject mechanisms.
- Pusher-type reject system
- Air-blast reject system
- Lockable collection bin
- Optional swing-arm system
- Optional retractable belt
- Optional reject flap
- Standard stop-on-detect operating option
- DSP signal-processing technology
- Quartz-stabilised operating frequency
- Microprocessor-controlled system
- Automatic balancing
- Temperature compensation
- Auto-Learn product compensation
- Multi-product memory
- EMC filtering to suppress external interference
- Password-protected system records
The VARICON+ GLS system is designed to support HACCP, IFS and BRC quality and product-safety requirements. A menu-guided validation system and password-protected system records help ensure reliable quality-control and audit processes.
- High-sensitivity in-line metal detection
- Detection of ferrous, non-ferrous and stainless-steel metals
- Auto-Learn product compensation
- High mechanical stability
- High immunity to interference
- Compact conveyor design
- Short metal-free-zone design
- Easy-to-clean hygienic construction
- Dry- and wet-environment options
- Flexible integration with different reject systems
VARICON+ GLS can be used for in-line metal inspection at virtually every production stage, from incoming-goods inspection to the final inspection point on the line.
- Incoming-goods inspection
- Intermediate inspection points on the production line
- Packaged-product inspection
- Unpackaged-product inspection
- End-of-line quality control
- Food-production and packaging lines
