Loma Systems used PACK EXPO to continue the introduction its IQ4 series of Metal Detectors. Loma’s engineering teams have employed its company’s ”Designed to Survive” philosophy to deliver high metal detection sensitivity in a package that the company says is easy to install, easy to use, easy to clean and maintain, can withstand the arduous food production environment, and ultimately brings a strong cost of ownership profile. It also features optimized detector mechanics, true variable frequency technology, and progressive electronics.
“There are metal detectors on the market that are using multi-spectrum-style designs that use multiple frequencies at a time, but that adds cost and it adds complexity,” says David Arseneault, North American sales manager. “For us, we use variable frequency, but we’re having the metal detector work off of multiple algorithms in the background, so it simplifies things for the operator. So we get the performance, but at a lower barrier to entry for the operator.”
