Conveyor Metal Detectors are complete inspection systems that combine a conveyor and a metal detector into a single integrated unit. Designed for food processing operations, they provide reliable detection of ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants while maintaining a smooth product flow. Each system is custom-built for the specific application, helping processors protect equipment, prevent recalls, and meet strict quality and safety standards.

Bunting Conveyor Metal Detectors combine a precision-engineered conveyor with advanced metal detection technology to provide seamless inspection and reliable product handling. Designed specifically for food processing and packaging environments, they detect ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants before they can compromise product quality or safety.

Each system is custom-built to meet specific production line requirements, including tunnel size, belt width, reject mechanisms, and integration with existing automation or data capture systems. Units are supplied fully calibrated and ready for installation to minimize setup time and disruption.

Constructed from stainless steel with a hygienic design, Conveyor Metal Detectors are suitable for washdown environments and meet the strict standards required by the food industry. Intuitive touchscreen controls, automatic product learning, and digital signal processing ensure consistent detection across a wide range of products, packaging formats, and line speeds.

By combining high-sensitivity inspection with a robust design, these systems help food manufacturers maintain product integrity, prevent costly recalls, and ensure compliance with global safety standards.

Integrated Detection and Conveyance Combines a conveyor and a metal detector into a single system for seamless, ready-to-run operation.

By combining precision inspection with hygienic design, Conveyor Metal Detectors help food producers maintain consistent quality while protecting equipment, products, and brand integrity.

Conveyor Metal Detectors combine a tunnel-style detection coil and a conveyor into a single integrated inspection system. As products move along the conveyor, they pass through the detection coil, which scans for ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants.

When metal is detected, the system processes the signal and automatically triggers the selected response, such as sounding an alarm, stopping the conveyor belt, or removing the product via a reject mechanism.

With advanced features such as automatic product learning, dual-frequency operation (multiMODE), and product imaging software (imagePHASE), Conveyor Metal Detectors provide accurate, high-speed inspection of a wide variety of food products and packaging formats.

A Conveyor Metal Detector is an integrated inspection system that combines a conveyor belt with a tunnel-style detection coil. As products move along the belt, the detector scans for ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants and automatically triggers a response to remove them.

They can detect ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants, even in products with varying moisture or salt content.

Conveyor Metal Detectors can inspect packaged and unpackaged foods, including baked goods, frozen meals, meats, dairy products, snacks, powders, and bulk ingredients.

They detect and remove contaminated products before packaging or shipment, helping food manufacturers comply with HACCP, FSMA, FDA, USDA, IFS, BRC, SQF, and GFSI standards.
