Pulse3 Metal Detector Head


Metal detector head for packaged food inspection

The Pulse3 metal detector head is a tunnel-style system designed for the inspection of packaged food products and items conveyed on a belt. Thanks to M-Pulse3 digital technology, it delivers high sensitivity, reliable performance, and stable detection, even with products containing conductive components or high moisture levels.

Its operating principle is based on a three-coil system, which enables the separation of metallic signals from product effect and vibration. This approach reduces false rejects and improves inspection accuracy.

Manufactured in stainless steel with an epoxy resin inspection area, the Pulse3 head combines a hygienic design with a robust structure, making it ideal for food production environments. The electronics can be installed directly on the head or up to 3 metres away, providing greater integration flexibility on existing lines.

In summary, the Pulse3 metal detector head is a high-performance and versatile solution for inspecting packaged products and items on conveyors. It combines precision, durability, and ease of use, minimising false rejects and ensuring compliance with IFS, BRC, and HACCP standards.
