MDS, the UK Ceia Distributor, are looking forward to welcoming visitors to the forthcoming Foodex show being held at the NEC in Birmingham from Monday 24th to Wednesday 26th April.
MDS, located on stand J 100, will be showcasing the MS21 Multi- Spectrum technology built to the latest higher level retailer codes of practice and BRC requirements. Two conveyorised systems will demonstrate some of the most popular configurations for rejection systems and conveyor belt configurations.
We will be providing live demonstrations of the THS production software and IXC card showing real time event logging and data capture, ideal for quality control.
Also on show will be the reduced height G series throat detector which is widely used in gravity fed metal detection systems, packaging and filling lines.
New for 2023 are MDS’s bespoke service contracts that guarantee customers speedy response times, scheduled calibration visits and 24/7 telephone support. Mike Tinsley, Service Operations Director and Andy Elder, Service Director, will be on the stand to discuss these packages and show you how they can benefit your site.
MS21 Multi-Spectrum Technology
The MS21 multi spectrum metal detector can use multiple frequencies simultaneously, giving it an advantage over conventional multi frequency detectors which only use one of their available frequencies at any one time.
This means the MS21 can deliver an improved sensitivity of up to half the test sample size of a conventional frequency metal detector. To put this into perspective, ½ the diameter is ⅛ the volume, giving the MS21 much greater ability to find small irregularly shaped contamination.
MS21 Conveyorised Systems
The MS21 metal detection system is widely used on many conveyorised production lines in the UK. The stand will include two demonstration lines.
System 1 with a 350 x 200 mm curtain style detector head, will have a pusher rejection system and a modular conveyor belt.
System 2 is fitted with a 350 x 175 mm curtain style head and an air blast reject system mounted on a blue, food grade conveyor belt.
Both systems are designed and manufactured in accordance with the latest higher level supermarket codes of practice and come fitted with various interfaces to allow for connection to the production control system.
THS Production Software
THS Production is an exclusive programme to CEIA machines, which enables an in house factory programme used to generate reports from CEIA metal detectors. Facilitating THS production allows key people to view live alerts from each metal detector without having to go to the factory floor, it can work for multiple machines at once allowing complete visibility.
Benefits include live fault alerts, email alerts for specific events and automatic generation and printing of reports.
G Series Throat Detectors
Throat detectors are available in a wide range of sizes and performance options and they are suitable for many different product types in the food industry. Their design includes:
- Unique detection capability for magnetic, non-magnetic and stainless steel metal contaminants
- Extremely high adaptability to any product to be inspected
- FDA Title 21CFR Part 11 Compliant: Data Security; Data Integrity; Data Traceability
- Rugged AISI 316L stainless steel construction and food-compatible plastic parts (EU, FDA compliant)
- Superior Washdown Construction
