Anuga FoodTec 24: Process security: KIPP detectable products

Problem solver for foodstuff industries

Visit HEINRICH KIPP from 19 - 22 March 2024 at Anuga FoodTec in Cologne in Hall 8.1, Stand A090.

Detectable operating parts

The detectable products made of a special plastic can be quickly and reliably located by detection systems.

This early detection of foreign bodies plays an important role especially in the foodstuff industry and in critical areas of the pharmaceutical industry. Often small splinters from components used on the production machines get into the manufacturing process. Most of the time, it is the consumers who discover these. The foodstuff must now be recalled at great expense. In these cases, the manufacturer usually not only has to pay high costs, but also has to reckon with enormous image loss.

To prevent this, HEINRICH KIPP WERK has developed easily detectable plastic operating parts and standard elements. These meet the highest hygiene, quality and safety requirements of the manufacturing industry.

Metal detectable operating parts

Metal detectors operate very reliably and are among the most commonly used equipment for detecting e.g. contaminated foodstuffs.

Our metal detectable operating parts and standard elements are made from a special FDA-compliant plastic. This is easily detectable by metal detectors with the correct calibration. Even plastic fragments as small as 0.027cm³ which may get inside the foodstuff being processed, can be reliably detected by metal detectors.

If a metal detector system detects these foreign bodies, an automatic ejection can be initiated.

This prevents the disposal of an entire production batch and costly retrieval actions.
