Should you buy a check weigher metal detector combo or two separate machines? Compare floor space, cost, reject handling, validation and audit records, with a simple decision table.
The same X-ray image that finds glass, stone and bone can also check fill level, count items, spot broken products and catch product in seals. Here is how one machine can do several jobs.
A practical check weigher selection guide: how to size a machine by pack weight, line speed, accuracy and pack format, how Legal Metrology tolerances set your accuracy target, and the questions to ask before you buy.
Foil pouches and metallised wrappers blind ordinary metal detectors. Learn how foil-pack detectors find iron and steel through aluminium, what they miss, and when X-ray or upstream inspection is the better choice.
A February 2026 recall of 9,462 lb of meatballs over metal fragments shows why detection matters. Here is how balanced-coil metal detectors find ferrous, non-ferrous and stainless steel, and what limits them.
A dynamic check weigher weighs every pack on the move and rejects any that are under or over weight, without stopping the line. TCT engineers explain how load cells, belt speed and reject systems work together.
