How BORSOI srl Achieves Top Safety Standards in Textiles
BORSOI srl, a leading manufacturer of filling machines for the textile industry, has been synonymous with top-tier quality standards for decades. This Italian company crafts innovative machine solutions used in the production of filled textile products like pillows, blankets, and cushions.
Innovation and quality are the company's top priorities. With a focus on cutting-edge technology and comprehensive solutions, BORSOI has earned a global reputation. However, rising demands for product safety and new challenges in quality control necessitated an expansion of the existing safety framework, particularly concerning potential metal contamination.
The Challenge: Metal Contamination Risks in Pillows
The challenges faced by BORSOI were far beyond the ordinary. In the production of machine-filled pillows, there's a risk of metal particles—especially broken needles—entering the product. For end customers who sleep on these pillows daily, this poses a significant safety risk, as they rely on safe and high-quality products.
The requirements for the solution were clear: The technology used had to detect ferromagnetic metal particles as small as 1.2 mm. This demanded an exceptionally high sensitivity that conventional systems had not achieved before. Additionally, there was the so-called product effect, where the pillow filling materials and the conveyor system could affect the precision of metal detection.

The Solution: INTUITY with THiNK – Precision Meets Innovation
BORSOI chose the INTUITY metal detection solution with Sesotec's innovative THiNK technology based on artificial intelligence. This system proved ideal for meeting specific requirements.
Solution Features:
- Unmatched Sensitivity: INTUITY reliably detects metal particles as small as 1.2 mm (FE) – a decisive advantage over competitors.
- THiNK Technology: Advanced AI technology successfully compensates for interference caused by cushion filling and conveyor belts, enhancing metal detection accuracy and reducing false rejects due to product effects.
- Adaptability: The metal detection solution is tailored to fit seamlessly into BORSOI's large-scale production facilities.
- Reliability and Ease of Use: The solution features low-maintenance components and intuitive operation, simplifying daily use.
Customer Value: Uncompromising Quality and Safety
Choosing INTUITY and THiNK offers BORSOI numerous advantages, benefiting both the company and its end customers sustainably.
With the exceptional sensitivity of INTUITY systems, the risk of metal contamination is completely eliminated. End customers can trust that products delivered by BORSOI are safe and free from hazardous impurities.
The THiNK technology fully compensates for the product effect, allowing BORSOI's production processes to continue without interruptions or adjustments.
The installation of the metal detection systems not only brought short-term benefits but also opened up new future opportunities. BORSOI is already planning to implement similar solutions in the textile recycling industry to expand its product portfolio and explore new markets.
The installation of the INTUITY units took place in September 2024. Shortly after commissioning, the first positive results were evident. The devices have been operating reliably since then, ensuring that all products meet the highest safety standards.
Conclusion: Technology as the Key to Greater Security and Success
The collaboration between BORSOI srl and Sesotec demonstrates how innovative technologies can tackle even the most demanding challenges. INTUITY with THiNK sets new standards in metal detection, helping BORSOI not only meet customer safety standards but also enhance their competitive edge.
