Advanced Detection Systems Awarded Patent for New Technology

Advanced Detection Systems new ProScan Max patented metal detection  technology monitors and compensates for production conditions that effect sensitivity performance. Working in real time, the computer compensates for the effects of conveyor and floor vibrations caused by forklift traffic, product impact, along with the shaking effects caused by reject mechanisms and other processing equipment.

A common complaint with metal detectors is the high number of false rejects or false positives experienced during production. Food metal detectors are often placed in extreme production conditions that subject them to vibrations, shaking and harsh conditions that directly affect their performance. With the ProScan Max technology, these conditions are compensated for automatically, which improves the metal detector’s sensitivity to smaller metal contaminates.The ProScan Max metal detector incorporates proprietary electronic technology, rugged all-welded conveyor construction and wash-down design. Additional features are an easy-use touch screen, 1-2 pass product set up, auto calibration, USB data down load, Ethernet and optional remote diagnostics capability.
