FA-MD-P50 Pipeline Metal Detector: Precision Contamination Control for 50mm-Diameter Sauce Production Lines
For sauce producers (ketchup, salad dressing, pasta sauce, etc.), detecting metal contaminants in viscous, flowable products is uniquely challenging: traditional detectors struggle with residue buildup, while tiny equipment-wear fragments (e.g., stainless steel particles from mixers) often slip through low-precision systems. This risk led Spanish salad dressing brand Salsa Fresca—a supplier to 2,000+ European supermarkets—to adopt Shanghai Fanchi-tech Machinery Co., Ltd.’s FA-MD-P50 50mm-Diameter Sauce Pipeline Metal Detector (the equipment shown in our workshop imagery) — a purpose-built solution for online, high-precision sauce inspection.
Customer Success: Salsa Fresca Eliminates Contamination Risks in Salad Dressing Production
Prior to 2024, Salsa Fresca relied on a generic pipeline metal detector that failed two critical needs:
- Its 0.8mm ferrous/1.2mm stainless steel sensitivity missed 0.7mm SUS fragments from mixer blades, leading to 2 customer complaints in 6 months.
- Its rough inner pipeline surface trapped viscous salad dressing, requiring 2 hours of daily disassembly cleaning (slowing production by 8%).
“From the first test, the FA-MD-P50 stood out,” says Salsa Fresca’s Production Manager, Carlos Ruiz. “Its 50mm diameter fit our existing sauce transfer pipes perfectly, and it flagged a 0.4mm ferrous fragment in our test batch—something our old detector never would have caught. The smooth stainless steel inner wall also cut cleaning time to 15 minutes per day.”
Since deploying 4 FA-MD-P50 units:
- Salsa Fresca achieved 0 contamination-related complaints (down from 2/quarter).
- Reduced daily cleaning downtime by 75%.
- Maintained 100% compliance with EU HACCP and FDA food safety standards.
Core Features: Built for Viscous Sauce Production (Aligned with Our Workshop Imagery)
The FA-MD-P50 is engineered to solve the unique pain points of 50mm-diameter sauce pipelines:
1. 50mm-Diameter Pipeline & Viscous Product Compatibility
Its 50mm inner pipeline (matching standard sauce transfer pipe sizes) integrates seamlessly into existing production lines—no costly pipeline reconfiguration needed. The smooth 304 stainless steel inner wall prevents viscous sauce residue buildup (critical for sticky products like honey mustard or tomato paste).
2. Industry-Leading Detection Precision
Calibrated for the tiny contaminants common in sauce production:
- Ferrous (Fe): 0.4mm (e.g., iron fragments from conveyor belt hardware)
- Non-Ferrous (NonFe): 0.6mm (e.g., copper wire from packaging equipment)
- Stainless Steel (SUS): 0.8mm (the most frequent contaminant from mixer/blender wear)
Its multi-frequency auto-calibration ignores sauce viscosity and color (e.g., dark tomato sauce), eliminating false alarms.
3. Food-Grade, Easy-Clean Design
As visible in our imagery:
- All sauce-contact components are 304 stainless steel (meets EU food hygiene regulations).
- Removable pipeline segments enable quick disassembly for deep cleaning (no specialized tools required).
- Sealed operation panel (IP65-rated) protects electronics from sauce splatters and washdowns.
4. Mobile, Flexible Deployment
The FA-MD-P50’s wheeled stainless steel frame (shown in the top-left workshop image) allows flexible movement between production lines—ideal for small-to-medium sauce producers with multi-SKU workflows.
