Having a metal detector allows a snack food processor to easily comply with global safety standards, and Heat and Control said choosing the right metal detector is an important choice and should be based on the type of snack food being run.

“While metal detection in food processing is primarily about quality control and consumer protection, it also protects other machinery in the production line because even the smallest metal particle can lead to machinery malfunction, resulting in revenue decrease thanks to production downtime,” Heat and Control said.

Its solution, the CEIA THS/MS21, is a multi-spectrum metal detector that has a unique detection capability and extreme sensitivity of magnetic, non-magnetic and stainless-steel metal contaminants, and comes in a USDA-approved design.

The machine is suitable for all manner of snack food products, it can detect foreign objects, it operates simply and efficiently at high speeds, and also collects and retains important production run data.

Heat and Control will also have its DiversaCut 2110A Dicer on show, which dices, strips, slices, granulates and shreds at high production capacities.

It is available in three models and offers cost-savings by limiting the need for pre-cutting of products. All models feature high-capacity production capabilities and continuous operation for uninterrupted production.

Also, the compact cutting zone, completely separate from the mechanical zone, establishes precision cuts as the product moves throughout the process.

Heat and Control will be exhibiting at AUSPACK 2022 on Stand D150.
