Improvements in the accuracy and reliability in food production metal detection allow it to pinpoint even the smallest fragments and most elusive grades of stainless steel. By dramatically reducing the impact of ‘product effect’, Fortress Technology has taken both overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) and food safety to new heights.
Too often, metal detection technology can be eclipsed by the hype surrounding other types of inspection systems, notably x-ray, occasionally leaving the wildly inaccurate impression that the older technology is some sort of fringe, anachronistic throwback. For a few short years, some even speculated that x-ray would become the default technology for end-of-line contaminant inspection.
