Industrial Metal detectors are primarily used for the purpose of consumer protection. Despite maximum care, metallic contaminations of food products during the production process cannot be fully excluded. Metal particles that enter the product during the production process or already are contained in the raw material may cause serious injuries to consumers. The consequences for the producing company are numerous and serious and include compensation claims and expensive recalls. Even bigger and longer-lasting damage is caused by the negative brand image and the loss of consumer trust caused by impure food products.
