Reflex Nutrition has installed the latest of five Sesotec metal detection systems for its production lines. 

The supplier of sports nutrition and health supplements had the first Sesotec UNICON conveyor system installed in 2011 in a powder filling line after moving to new premises in the Science Park at Woodingdean near Brighton, UK.

Each unit incorporates a modular belt conveyor Sesotec UNICON system with the GENIUS+ controller and dual frequency GLS detection heads providing metal detection capability.

The systems come in belt widths from 250mm for inspection of packaged products up to 130kg.

Part of the process was to call on Sesotec for advice on the best siting for the systems and a degree of specific design, particularly on the capsule production line. 

Andrew Lewis, operations director at Reflex, said: “All our Sesotec units, including the rather specialised capsule line unit, worked without problems right from the outset and we have been very pleased with the support we have received from Sesotec and their engineers.”
