Frequently asked Questions

How often should a food metal detector be calibrated?
Most food manufacturers work to an annual or six-monthly calibration cycle, supported by daily or shift-based in-house performance checks. The right frequency depends on your risk assessment, retailer code of practice and how heavily the line is used. We are happy to review your current schedule and advise.
Calibration sets and confirms the detector’s settings and sensitivity. Validation proves the system is capable of doing the job your HACCP plan asks of it, for your specific products. Verification is the ongoing routine checking that shows it is still performing between calibrations.
Yes. Where our diary allows, we aim to attend the same day for breakdowns and urgent detection issues in our Midlands and East Midlands coverage area. Call 07970 556228 and we will tell you honestly when we can be with you.
