Mettler-Toledo Safeline, the worldwide leader in product inspection equipment, has announced that its highly sensitive and user-friendly PowerPhasePRO metal detector is now available on pipeline, gravity flow, and Tablex 2 pharmaceutical units. With new enhancements to the software platform, the unit offers manufacturers increased productivity, reduced overall manufacturing costs, and improved competitiveness.

The metal detector is simple to operate with its Windows style full-color touch screen. Combined with high detection sensitivity and on-line stability, the PowerPhasePRO provides maximum uptime for increased profits. Detecting and automatically rejecting ferrous, non-ferrous, and even irregularly shaped and difficult-to-detect non-magnetic stainless steel in wet or conductive products, it delivers brand protection for manufacturers and product safety for consumers.

The unit offers the benefit of an advanced ‘change free running mode’ enabling multiple products to be run at a single setting, thereby eliminating the need to change settings at product changeovers. This maximizes your line’s uptime.

The inclusion of advanced, built-in condition monitoring feature provides advanced warning of maintenance needs before failure to further enhance plant efficiency. Critical messages can be communicated directly to key individuals within the manufacturers’ organization via email or SMS text messaging.
