Plastics Applications

Plastic regrind processes require metal detection appropriate for each individual application. We manufacture a variety of metal detectors for the plastics industry that alert workers and stop the feed conveyor before material reaches the processing equipment and cause damage. Protection of your equipment and preventing costly downtime is what the SurroundScan Protector LP was engineered and manufactured for.

The SurroundScan Protector LP has a 45% smaller coil enclosure and a 40% weight reduction than the SurroundScan Protector HD; simplifying installation on conveyor frames where clearance between the conveyor belt and frame is limited. The Protector LP can be quickly installed on portable conveyors and used on spliced conveyor belts.

Advanced Detection Systems SurroundScan Defender III Industrial Metal Detector
Plastic recycling industries require precisen detection levels. The SurroundScan Defender III has state of the art detection levels. The SurroundScan Defender III protects valuable processing equipment that can’t tolerate even the smallest particle of metal without sustaining costly damage and downtime. We installed patented core software such as: Auto-Balance Technology, Acculearn Technology, and Patented Vibration Technology that improves performance and reliability.

The SurroundScan Defender III is all welded stainless-steel construction, rated IP69K for sealing of the electronics in extreme wash down conditions to provide years of trouble-free service in tough industrial environments.

When you require consistent, reliable metal detection, Advanced Detection Systems is your choice.
