Food, Packaging & Processing

Main Content

The food, packaging, and processing industries cover a wide range of applications, including food and beverages, powder and bulk solids, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, chemicals, and sustainable packaging. Each sector transforms raw materials into finished products while maintaining strict standards for purity, quality, efficiency, and safety.

Eriez’ advanced Magnetic Separators, Metal Detectors, X-ray Inspection Systems, and Vibratory Feeders and Conveyors help prevent contamination, meet regulations, and keep consumers safe — no matter what product is being processed or packaged.

Magnetic Separation, Metal Detection, X-ray Inspection Systems, and Vibratory Feeders & Conveyors for Packaging & Processing Industries

Eriez is a global leader in separation and material handling technologies, providing localized sales and support through its 13 subsidiaries to packaging, food processing, and bulk material handling customers worldwide. With more than 80 years of experience, integrating Eriez magnetic separators and metal detectors provides processors with peace of mind that their products remain contaminant-free. Protect brands from expensive recalls, which can cause irreversible damage to their reputation. Internally, metal-free products ensure that downstream equipment is protected, ensuring that costly downtime due to damaged equipment is minimized. Any time a production line has to stop is lost time, and, more importantly, lost revenue.

Magnetic Separation

Eriez Magnetic Separation equipment effectively removes ferrous metal contamination from product flows. Small magnetic separators, such as magnetic plates, grate magnets, tube magnets, and liquid-line trap magnets, are designed to effectively separate dangerous metals, no matter if the product passing through the separator is wet, dry, sticky, or liquid-based. Our extensive sales engineer network provides on-site consultations, recommending the best solution for your unique processing application.

Metal Detection

Our industrial Metal Detectors focus on detecting and removing nonferrous, or non-magnetic, metal contaminants from a product flow. Nonferrous contaminants such as aluminum, copper, tin, and other alloys are swiftly and accurately pinpointed and removed. Eriez X8 metal detectors feature a huge easy-to-use touchscreen interface that makes setup, reporting, and configuration simple.

X-ray Inspection

Utilize high-definition image processing with Eriez' X-ray Inspection Systems. Ensure product purity whether you’re inspecting metallic, glass, stone, bone, or dense plastic for materials. X-ray detectors can inspect incoming material feeds or already-packaged items, benefiting the entire downstream process. Whether by helping verify fill levels, uniformity, and positioning or detecting contaminants in raw, bulk, or pipeline streams, X-ray technology sees what you can’t.

Vibratory Feeders and Conveyors

Finally, Vibratory Feeders and Conveyors from Eriez are high-performance, low-maintenance material handling solutions that can effectively transport materials throughout a processing application. When feeding valuable raw materials into a product flow, electromagnetic vibratory feeders can accurately meter additives and ingredients into product flows. Further into the process, vibratory feeders transport semi-finished and packaged materials with ease.
