Dual Wave H from Anritsu Detects Ferrous and Non-Ferrous Metals Independently

June 26, 2013
Anritsu's Dual Wave H Metal Detection System is designed to ensure safe products on high-speed lines at packaging and food processing plants.

Anritsu's Dual Wave H is designed to ensure safe products on high-speed lines at fast-paced pharmaceutical, packaging and food processing plants. Multiple frequencies are built in so you can run two frequencies simultaneously to maximize detection of ferrous and stainless metals independent of each other. This is the only system in the industry to deliver this dual wave solution.

Featuring the industry’s first simultaneous, two-frequency magnetic field detecting method, the Anritsu Dual Wave H Metal Detection System features unique sensing technology, such as auto-setting algorithm and tracking functions. For frozen, wet or bulk products, the phase-tracking function works on an individual product to maintain a stable detection operation. Enhanced, maximum sensitivity to detect ferrous and non-ferrous metals is engineered to provide effective and consistent contamination detection.

To assure easy detection management of the system, the estimated sensitivity to ferrous and stainless steel is displayed to allow system operators to check detection sensitivity against the test piece. The conveyor belt speed can be individually selected by product type, and change of belt speed can be made without having to conduct any modifications. Changing the setting to adapt to the direction of flow due to relocation or a production line layout change is a fast and easy process. Supply voltage ranging from 100 to 120 V/220 to 240 V (AC) means installation of the system can be made anywhere on-line.
