Magnetic separator vs metal detector

A magnetic separator filters metal contaminants from the product flow and removes them.

• practically no product loss
• suitable for removing both sporadic and common metal pollution

A metal detector only detects. If you want to remove the metal particle, the production line has to be stopped, or the metal particle has to be ejected by a rejection mechanism.

• a lot of product loss
• mainly suitable as a means of inspection for sporadically occurring metal contaminations
