Metal Detection Equipment
Tectron designs its specialty metal detectors for applications that require capabilities beyond standard metal detection. These advanced solutions include: Magnetic & Non Magnetic Metal Detection, Long Object & Roof Bolts Metal Detection, Large Aperture & Whole Log Metal Detection, and Road Scan Metal Detection Equipment.
Additionally, each of these specialized detection systems is engineered to address specific challenges across demanding industrial applications.
Specialty Metal Detector 8050
Discriminator Magnetic & Non Magnetic Metal Detection Equipment
In particular, the Model 8050 has the unique ability to detect and discriminate between nonmagnetic and magnetic tramp metals. Typically operators install this model on a conveyor system in conjunction with a magnetic separator. As a result, the detector can be set to detect all nonmagnetic tramp metals and those pieces of magnetic tramp metal, which are too large for or missed by the magnet.
Specialty Metal Detector 6000
Long Object & Roof Bolts Metal Detection Equipment
Specifically designed to prevent conveyor belt piercing by long rods (such as roof bolts) or jamming of the transfer point, the Model 6000 selectively detects long metal objects of a given diameter and length as well as normal tramp metals greater than the given rod diameter. Furthermore, as with most Tectron units, the detector is also compatible with fabric or steel cord conveyor belts, and belts with metal splices.
Specialty Metal Detector 9100
Large Aperture & Whole Log Metal Detection Equipment
The Model 9100 provides a large sensing aperture and high metal sensitivity for demanding applications. As a result, this model is particularly suited to scanning whole logs on conveyors or chutes. Additionally, the Model 9100 has shielded receiver and transmitter antennae to minimize interference from surrounding metal and airborne electrical transmissions.
Specialty Metal Detector Road Scan
Road Scan Metal Detection Equipment for Contractors & Paving Projects
In addition to industrial conveyor applications, Tectron provides advanced metal detection solutions for contractors and paving professionals. The Road Scan metal detector allows contractors to scan for metallic objects buried beneath asphalt to help protect cold planers, and more accurately bid road re-paving projects. Furthermore, the Road Scan is able to scan across a full lane width, and detect large metallic objects (manhole covers, water main covers, rail & trolley tracks) to up to 12” deep.
