■ Product Overview
A Tablet Metal Detector (also called Tablet Metal Detection System) is a high-sensitivity, sanitary inspection machine designed exclusively for pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and biotech industries to detect and reject microscopic metal contaminants (ferrous, non-ferrous, stainless steel) in loose tablets, capsules, caplets, and softgels during production.Pharma Grade Metal Detector is typically installed after tablet presses, de-dusters, polishers, or capsule fillers to ensure final product purity and regulatory compliance.

■ FAQ
Q1. What types of metal contaminants can be detected?
A: Our systems provide full-spectrum metal detection for all common foreign metal bodies:
Ferrous metals (iron, carbon steel)
Non-ferrous metals (copper, aluminum, brass, lead)
Stainless steel (304, 316L, etc.)
Q2. What sensitivity levels are achievable?
A: Our tablet metal detectors deliver industry-leading sensitivity for pharmaceutical applications:
Fe: ≥ 0.3 mm
Non-Ferrous: ≥ 0.5 mm
316L Stainless Steel: ≥ 0.5 mm
Q3. How does the system handle product effect?
A: Equipped with dual‑frequency / multi‑frequency DSP technology and adaptive signal processing algorithms, the system automatically compensates for inherent product effect (moisture, conductive ingredients, coating, or temperature variations). This ensures stable sensitivity and minimal false rejects even with challenging formulations.
Q4. What throughput speeds are supported?
A: Designed for modern high‑speed production lines:
●Up to 500,000 tablets per hour
●Continuous operation with consistent sensitivity
●Compatible with tablet presses, polishers, de‑dusters, and packaging lines
Q5. Can the system integrate with factory automation systems?
A: Yes. The detector supports industry‑standard communication protocols:
●Ethernet/IP, Profinet, Modbus TCP/IP
●Integration with SCADA, MES, and line control systems
●Remote monitoring, diagnostics, and data export
●Real‑time production and rejection reporting
