ThermoFisher’s Multiscan Technology Revolutionizes Metal Detection for Enhanced Food Safety.
In a landmark advancement in food safety, experts reveal that multiscan technology for metal detection is setting new standards in detecting metal contaminants. With growing concerns over food purity, this breakthrough couldn’t have come at a more pivotal moment.
Traditional Metal Detection – A Brief Look Back
Historically, metal detection in food processing has been fraught with challenges. Simple tasks like detecting tiny metal fragments become intricate when considering the various types, sizes, and orientations of possible contaminants. Moreover, many food products, especially those with high mineral or salt content, can mimic the signals of metals, leading to false alarms.
These challenges are further complicated by the bustling environment of food production units. Vibrations from machinery, electronic noises, and even temperature fluctuations have been known to interfere with the performance of conventional metal detectors.
Enter ThermoFisher Scientific’s Multi-scan Technology
Multiscan technology operates on a multifrequency approach. In essence, it scans food products using multiple frequencies, almost as though several detectors are examining the food simultaneously. This strategy drastically improves the chances of spotting contaminants.
Benefits of Multiscanning Technology to your Business
- Superior Detection Capabilities: Harnessing up to five different frequencies, multiscan technology increases the odds of identifying contaminants manifold.
- Tuned Sensitivity: Different metals resonate differently with various frequencies. This technology ensures optimal sensitivity for each type of metal, making detection more accurate.
- Minimized False Alarms: By using multiple frequencies, the technology can bypass interference or “noise” that might hamper detection at a single frequency.
Highlighting the practical application of this technology, industry insiders have pointed to the Thermo Scientific™ Sentinel™ Multiscan Metal Detector. Reports suggest that this device has a knack for pinpointing metal contaminants that were previously undetectable using older methods. Besides, while it utilizes multiple frequencies, it doesn’t overburden users with false detections. These modern devices also come equipped with intuitive interfaces, ensuring ease of use even for those not particularly tech-savvy.
As the food industry continually strives for safety and purity, the arrival of multiscan technology for metal detection marks a significant milestone. This technology promises not only to enhance the accuracy of metal detection but also to cement consumer trust in the safety standards of the food processing industry.
