The metal detector/checkweigher combo provides both checkweighing and metal detection with a minimum space requirement. This system features the superior performance and accuracy of a Ramsey checkweigher with the high sensitivity of a Thermo Scientific metal detector. This unique arrangement eliminates the expense of a separate conveyor for the metal detector.

Output signals from the metal detector and checkweigher operate independent rejects. One rejects metal contaminated products, while the other rejects off weight products. This feature keeps metal contaminated products separate from potentially reusable off weight products.

The checkweighers have the design capability of being basic checkweighers or sophisticated comprehensive statistical systems. Availability of three or five weight zones, 100 product set-ups, auto zero and a host of features such as scope free calibration make the checkweighers user-friendly.

The Thermo Scientific metal detectors, reflecting the proud history of the Goring Kerr brand, bring you the highest levels of sensitivity and stability with the lowest levels of false rejects. Metal detectors available in a combo system include the small footprint IP69K rated DSP-IP+ and the latest technology APEX models.

All Thermo Scientific checkweighers can be supplied in a combo configuration except the Teorema high rate can weigher. Combos can be ordered with either the entry level AC4000i checkweigher controller, or the top of the line AC9000-plus model.

Now you can have both accurate weight control and the assurance that your product is free of metal contaminates all in a single source. The combo system enhances HACCP or ISO programs you may have in place while protecting you from liability and adverse publicity.

Benefits:

• One vendor for both product inspection requirements.
• One service technician to support both inspection devices
• Reduced number of product transfer points
• Reduced equipment footprint/line space requirement
• Reduced cost compared to individual standalone systems
• Market leading brand names behind both products
