In food manufacturing, bulk inspection can have several different meanings. Here, we use it specifically to refer to dry, large packed food products that are inspected by a metal detector on a horizontal conveyor (e.g. bulk inspection of 50 kg bags of flour, sugar and coffee).
Inspection challenges for packaged bulk food products can arise through a phenomenon known as “bulk effect”, which means the sensitivity of the metal detector can be impacted by the greater quantity of material being inspected. To manage these challenges, manufacturers can choose a metal detection system that is designed to improve bulk food inspection by overcoming bulk effect, maximizing detection sensitivity in bulk foods.

Metal Detection Systems for Bulk Food and Other Applications
The M33RB, part of the M30 R-Series family of metal detectors, is specifically designed to overcome bulk effect and maximize sensitivity. It has tuned, very high frequency patented eDrive™ technology and optimized coil geometry which combine to deliver up to 30% better spherical sensitivity in bulk applications compared to entry-level tuned solutions. The M33RB metal detector is a great choice for large (25 kg to 50 kg) bulk product inspection such as bags, boxes or sacks of product, either pre-or post-packaging. If you need even greater sensitivity performance and brand protection, we offer the Profile RB from our premium range of metal detectors. The Profile RB provides advanced metal detection with ultra-high tuned frequency technology and is also fully optimized for inspecting large and bulk conveyorized products.
In addition to the specialized M33RB bulk option, the M30 R-Series range of metal detectors includes three other models. Built to deliver reliable inspection and affordable compliance, this range is sure to have a metal detector to suit your budget, performance and protection needs, no matter the application. For affordable quality control in dry or wet applications, the entry-level M31R is ideal for versatile inspection. The M33R offers a step-change in performance and very high sensitivity for inspection of dry or deep frozen products. However, food that is wet, chilled, hot or in metallized film packaging may need far greater detection capabilities, and for these challenging applications you will benefit from the M34R.
The foundation of the M30 R-Series is the SENSE™ software that powers the metal detection systems. SENSE is cutting-edge software that improves metal detector capability to detect smaller contaminants. It supports greater process quality by centrally coordinating every element of the metal detection system, orchestrating the integration of the metal detector, sensors and reject mechanism to work in harmony. SENSE works with advanced software algorithms to make split-second judgment calls on contamination to significantly reduce false reject rates.
All M30 R-Series models are compatible with an extensive range of conveyor systems to create a fully-integrated, fit-for-purpose inspection solution.
