METTLER TOLEDO systems protect your brand and support consumer safety through a wide range of metal detectors for different types of applications in the processing industry.

In processes where products move through packaging flows, especially in vertical form-fill-seal (VFFS) systems, throat metal detectors play a key role in ensuring product safety. These systems detect metal contaminants as the product passes through the conveying equipment before the packaging is formed and sealed, preventing foreign particles from entering the finished product and reducing the risk of product recalls from distribution.

Installing a throat metal detector enables real-time metal detection before packaging, which is particularly important for products that flow freely through the system.
