METAL SEPARATION IN FREE-FALL CONVEYOR LINES
Efficient Metal Detection for Bulk Materials
Chunky, powdery, fine, or coarse—bulk materials are everywhere in the industry. With our RAPID series metal detection systems for free-fall applications, you achieve optimal results in quality assurance, incoming goods inspection, and machinery protection. Even under the highest hygiene standards.
Who Benefits from RAPID Free-Fall Metal Detectors?
Free-fall metal detectors inspect free-flowing bulk materials in vertical conveyors for metal contaminants. They reliably detect and separate both magnetic and non-magnetic metals, even when embedded in the product. They are especially crucial in industries with stringent purity standards, such as food and feed production.
Common applications include the food and feed industry, chemical and pharmaceutical production, and plastics processing. They are used wherever bulk materials need to be inspected for metal contaminants.
Metal detectors excel at detecting tiny metal particles, making them the most reliable devices in this field. Compared to X-ray inspection systems, they are more cost-effective to purchase and operate, and they don't require complex radiation protection measures. Integration into existing production lines is simpler and more adaptable.

We see what you don't...
- Iron
- Steel
- Stainless Steel
- Non-Ferrous Metals
Common foreign bodies made of iron include machine parts, screws, nails, wires, or abrasion from conveyor belts and production equipment.
Food products can contain production residues like shavings, screws, or broken tools from mechanical processing.
Stainless steel often enters production through worn or damaged machine parts, pipelines, or cutting tools.
Aluminum, copper, or brass often come from packaging materials, cable scraps, piping, or worn machine parts.
