65 COVER STORY MILLER / december 2021 pipelines. Using innovative HRF technology, these devices offer the highest tactile sensitivity to all types of metals. The detection signal is transmitted and analyzed with a special frequency. In addition to ferrous and non-ferrous metals, tiny particles of non-magnetic stainless steel can also be detected and separated in a fully automated process. The INTUITY tunnel metal detector is installed in convey- or belts and uses THiNK, an AI software. Similar to conven- tional metal detectors, INTUITY applies multiple frequencies simultaneously to inspect the product. The AI technology helps to create multiple detection thresholds, and all signals that fall outside of these thresholds are detected as foreign metallic contaminants. This greatly increases the sensitivity of the system, and therefore also its accuracy. Improved safety throughout production Sesotec‘s unique metal detection solutions make it possible to achieve the highest detection performance throughout every processing stage. Rubin Mühle tests all products several times over the course of production, which has a positive effect on the purity of their grain flakes. “When it comes to future-proofing production facilities,” says Pierre Adam, Head of Projects at Rubin Mühle, “THiNK metal detectors with AI are the tool of choice for a food manufacturer like Rubin Mühle. This technology helps us improve the safety of our products, simplify our processes, and increase profitability. In other words, this is a futureproof investment.” INTUITY tunnel metal detector is installed in conveyor belts and is equipped with THiNK software. With the metal separator RAPID 6000 cereal flakes and flakes are examined.
