Overcoming product effect is a common challenge for many food manufacturers. Product effect can impact companies that produce meat, poultry, seafood, dairy products, baked goods, ready meals, or products packed in metallized film.
In metal detection, product effect occurs when the product being inspected has characteristics that behave like metal. Properties such as high water content, salt levels, or elevated product temperature can cause the metal detector to produce false rejects.
Traditionally, manufacturers reduce metal detector sensitivity to address product effect. However, this approach increases the risk of missing larger metal contaminants.
METTLER TOLEDO offers metal detection solutions that help overcome product effect. Our technology can detect smaller metal contaminants in wet or warm products to minimize false rejects and product waste.
