Aperture height
A smaller aperture finds smaller pieces. Size it to your tallest pack with little room to spare.

Sensitivity is quoted for a test ball in the middle of an empty aperture, while wet, salty or chilled product makes its own signal and stainless steel is the hardest metal to see, so only the figure on your product counts.

01
A smaller aperture finds smaller pieces. Size it to your tallest pack with little room to spare.
Ask how the unit learns your product, whether it runs several frequencies, and how many product settings it stores.
Reject confirmation, a locked bin, bin-full sensor and a stop when air pressure drops. Retail codes often ask for these.
Air jet for light packs, pusher or flap for heavy ones. Ask which suits your pack weight.
Ask for the ingress rating and belt material if open product touches it.

| Require this | A pass looks like |
|---|---|
| Pass Fe, non-Fe and stainless test pieces inside your product. | Every piece rejected at your required size, on every pass of a counted series. |
| Run clean product for an agreed period. | No false rejects in the whole period. |
| Fill the reject bin and cut air. | Line stops or alarms each time. |

We name the kind of source, how many and when, and never the factory. Listed prices are asking prices, not landed cost. Where we do not hold a fact we say so: that is a GAP, not an estimate.

Every machine we source in this area is on the Packaging page. How a project runs, stage by stage, is on how it works, and what it costs is on pricing.
