Used Sparc Systems Cerberus Metal Detector & Checkweigher
The Sparc Systems Cerberus Metal Detector and Checkweigher is a fully integrated combination inspection machine designed to improve product safety, quality control and packaging efficiency within food production environments. Combining advanced metal detection with high-accuracy checkweighing, the Cerberus provides two essential inspection functions in one compact system.
Featuring a servo-driven reject mechanism, the Cerberus accurately removes contaminated or out-of-tolerance packs from the production line without relying on compressed air. This helps reduce running costs while delivering reliable, repeatable rejection performance at speeds of up to 200 packs per minute.
With a weighing capacity of up to 6,000g, the system is designed to support a wide range of packaged food products. Its calculated giveaway monitoring can also provide feedback to upstream portioning equipment, helping manufacturers manage filling quantities and reduce unnecessary product giveaway.
The Cerberus can incorporate SparcEye vision inspection technology for additional quality assurance, checking product labels, date codes and batch information. Integrated data collection software is also available to provide live production and quality reporting, including OEE data and downtime information.
Its compact combination design and inline reject system make the Sparc Systems Cerberus a practical solution for food manufacturers looking to improve inspection processes while making efficient use of factory floor space.
