Inspection Systems
INSPECTION EXPERTISE Efficient detection of foreign objects in food and other products is critical to consumer safety and brand survival. Heat and Control offers a complete line of metal detectors, checkweighers and X-ray inspection systems from the leading manufacturers: Ishida and CEIA.
FROM A TO Z For food, pharmaceuticals and non-edible products, Heat and Control inspection systems provide detection functions, operating simplicity and data management features available from no other manufacturer. All inspection records are easily accessible and comprehensive validation solutions include manuals, service, compliance tools and on-line production data validation.
CEIA METAL DETECTORS CEIA is the world’s largest manufacturer of metal detectors, with over 90,000 units installed. CEIA has more than 40 years of experience and holds over 50 patents for innovations in metal detector design and construction. ISO 9001 certified, CEIA metal detectors are built to rigorous quality control standards. Each circuit board receives a 200 hour burn-in test. Mean Time Between Failure rate is 70,000 hours, typifying CEIA’s reputation for reliability in all operating environments.
THS SERIES Provides the highest level of sensitivity to magnetic and non-magnetic metals, including Type-316 stainless steel. Immunity to interference and response speeds exceed the highest standards. Additional advantages include: • Sensitivity independent of product speed • Automatic product effect compensation • Highly accurate, repeatable multi-band autolearn • Superior water resistance and reliability • Models for conveyed, falling and pumped products
THS/MS21 The only metal detector capable of eliminating false rejects without reducing sensitivity. Using CEIA’s proprietary multi-spectrum technology, the MS21 consistently detects smaller metal particles in difficult products like wet spinach, cheese, tortillas and ground beef. • • • •
Extreme compensation of product effect Highest sensitivity to all metals Continuous auto-testing and embedded self-calibration 316 stainless steel construction to IP66 and IP69K
‘the only metal detector capable of eliminating false rejects without reducing sensitivity’
THS/21 DETECTORS FOR EVERY APPLICATION CEIA THS/21 Series metal detectors are available separately and in pre-assembled configurations for conveyed, pumped, and free-falling products of all types.
Multi-Spectrum THS/MS21 For horizontally conveyed foods, free-falling products, and pipeline applications with or without a reject valve.
Single high-frequency THS/21 For ultra-high sensitivity inspection of dry, non-conductive products in horizontally conveyed and free-falling configurations with or without a reject valve.
Economical THS/21E For horizontally conveyed, free-falling, and pipeline applications of dry/neutral products.
PHARMACEUTICAL PRODUCTS INSPECTION SYSTEMS Integrate a CEIA THS/21 metal detector with specialized ejection systems for tablets, capsules, powder, and granules. • FDA Title 21 CRF Part 11 compliant for programming, data recording and reporting • Comprehensive validation solutions available • Continuous auto-testing and embedded self-calibration • Dust-tight and wash-in-place models
ISHIDA CHECKWEIGHERS Verify product weight, count, or missing items with Ishida DACS checkweighers. User-friendly controls include advanced data collection and management features. Conveyors and belts can be removed without using tools for easy cleaning and maintenance.
DACS-G SERIES Advanced, proprietary Ishida technology delivers unbeatable speed and accuracy. • • • • • •
Choice of two weight sensor technologies Dual weight range checkweighing Anti Floor Vibration and digital noise filters reduce weighing errors Adjustable belt height Dry and IP69K waterproof construction I-STATION LINK data collection and management
DACS-CW MULTI-LANE SERIES Provides high productivity and speed. All lanes are managed by a single operator. Compact control tower can be remote located to save floor space. • • • • • •
Two to six lane models 2/3/4/5/6 lane selectable model Anti Floor Vibration and digital noise filters reduce weighing errors Self-tracking conveyor reduces maintenance Dry and IP65 waterproof construction I-STATION LINK data collection and management
LARGE PACKAGE SERIES Deliver precise and reliable weight verification of large cartons and bags weighing up to 66lbs / 30kg. • • • •
Fixed speed operation ranging from 26 to 56 products/minute Dual weight range checkweighing Durable and easy-to-operate Pneumatic push-plate and roller conveyor reject system
ISHIDA X-RAY INSPECTION One X-ray can handle all inspection needs. Safely and accurately detect foreign objects including metal, glass, bone, plastic, hard rubber, shell and pebbles. Or detect for product defects like cracks, voids, missing items and improper weights. Ishida offers the highest level of performance for every production process, from raw material to packaging and casing. • Dry, IP69K washdown, and side-beam models for food and non-edible products • Models for bulk and packaged products, large cartons, and kraft bags • I-STATION LINK data collection and management
IX-GA Safe and highly effective inspection requires no customized software to detect foreign objects, defective product and incorrect package weights. Unique Genetic Algorithm image processing lets the operator generate the optimal sensitivity setting for each product.
IX-GA SIDE BEAM To inspect the greatest surface area of vertical containers such as bottles, jars and cans, this model transmits X-rays from the side, instead of top-down.
IX-G2 This dual energy inspection process compares absorption of X-rays on two levels to significantly improve detection of low-density objects in overlapped products and to reduce false detection errors.
IX-EA Versatile, affordable inspection includes product masking to cancel peripheral areas of packages, adjustable sensitivity and a standard CF card for data acquisition.
DEFECTIVE PRODUCT REJECTORS Quickly remove products with foreign objects, missing or defective pieces and incorrect package weights using a variety of rejection systems. Depending on the application and inspection system, choose from arm, air blast, push plate, drop belt, up flap, valve rejectors and other designs.
TECHNICAL SUPPORT Pre- and post-sale support includes same-day parts shipment, rapid-response service, applications assistance, engineering, installation and operator training. With more factory-trained service technicians in more locations, Heat and Control provides the industry’s most responsive and experienced technical support.
