Fruits & Vegetables

In the fruit and vegetable industry, metal contamination poses a critical food safety risk across the entire supply chain. Potential hazards may arise at multiple stages:


During cultivation, loose or broken parts from agricultural machinery (e.g., plows, harvesters) can introduce foreign objects like wire fragments, nails, or metal debris into corps.

In harvesting and transportation, wear and tear from tools (e.g., crates, forklifts) may generate metal shavings.

At processing facilities, equipment such as cutters, pitters, and slicers gradually degrade over time, with blade erosion or mechanical failures potentially releasing tiny metal particles into products. This risk escalates in deeply processed goods (e.g., juices, purees, ready-to-eat meals), where metal contaminants can spread widely during grinding or mixing.


If contaminated products reach consumers (via supermarkets or foodservice channels), consuquences can be severe: ingested sharp metals may cause oral or internal injuries, while product recalls could lead to hefty financial losses, legal liabilities, and lasting damage to brand reputation.


Metal detectors serve as a vital safeguard, deploying multi-stage inspection at raw material intake, processing lines, and packaged products.


We have a lot of experience in this field.

Today, more and more young consumers prefer purchasing pre-packaged vegetables and fruits in supermarkets, as their fast-paced lifestyle demands convenient and uniform packaging. For retailers, standardized packaging is crucial - each portion should maintain a consistent weight to ensure consumer satisfaction and minimize waste.


On automated production lines, an automatic weighing machine, which is also called checkweigher, can automatically weighing machine can accurately detect the weight of each package and automatically reject those outside the set range (underweight or overweight), ensuring standardized final packaging. We providing efficient and precise weighing solutions to enhance productivity and optimized product quality.
