Tablets & Capsules March 2014 31 coils, called receiver coils, are equi - distant from the center coil and are connected in series. Because the energy between the center coil and the receiver coils is balanced, it can- cels and the net output from the pair is zero. That balance is disturbed, how- ever, when a conductive element— such as metal—passes through the coil set, and if that element creates a large enough change in amplitude, the detector reacts. The sensitivity of the metal detector is adjustable and can be affected by the characteristics of the product being screened, the type and shape of metal to be detected, the aperture's dimensions, and the position of the metal particle within the aperture. The DSP metal detector installed at Global Health includes a belt con- veyor and reject mechanism. It has also a 1X4 video graphics array touch- screen interface, an automatic balance, and reject confirmation. Its power sup- ply and control are consolidated in four electronic circuit boards, which are housed in a NEMA 4X enclosure. Reliablity Wybrow expressed a strong pref- erence for the Eriez metal detectors over those supplied by another man- ufacturer, one of which came with a packaging line that the company bought. In fact, Wybrow said he'd like to replace them with Eriez units because they're more reliable and would use the same interface as the other equipment. "If you know one, you know the others, and that just makes it easier for everyone," Wybrow said. The non-Eriez metal detectors, he said, "need constant attention. I spend too much time with them." He also prefers the cus- tomer service that Eriez provides, which enabled Wybrow himself to repair a unit Eriez no longer offers. "I worked with them over the phone and got it working again." The Eriez metal detectors comple- ment the company's stringent qual- ity-assurance program, which includes protocols to ensure the identity, potency, and purity of raw materials, as well as an in-process testing and inspection policy to en - sure that the finished goods meet all specifications. "We've had very good luck with the Eriez metal detectors," Wybrow said. "They're always running, no matter what. Our customers are very demanding and we are in an industry that requires product purity. Eriez helps us meet that purity expectation." T&C Eriez, Erie, PA.
