IntroductionIn pharmaceutical manufacturing, product purity and patient safety are paramount. Minute metal contaminants-derived from milling equipment, packaging machinery, or raw-material handling-pose serious risks, potentially compromising drug efficacy or causing harm. To safeguard your brand's reputation and adhere to stringent regulatory standards, a reliable metal detection system is non-negotiable.The VikingDetector? 35 mm Gravity-Feed Metal Detector is meticulously designed to detect and reject metal contaminants as small as 0.3 mm, ensuring your powders, granules, and pellets remain free of ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless-steel fragments. Its compact, gravity-fed configuration makes it ideal for inline integration with hoppers, tablet presses, and other vertical processing equipment. 2. Industry Challenges & Regulatory Landscape2.1 Contamination Risks in Pharma ProcessingRaw Material Variability - API powders and excipients may carry metal shards from upstream milling.Equipment Wear - Prolonged use of blenders, granulators, and conveyors can shed microscopic metal fragments.Cross-Contamination - Shared production lines increase the risk of unwanted metal intrusion.2.2 Regulatory PressuresFDA 21 CFR Part 11 - Electronic records and audit trails must be secure and retrievable.EU GMP Annex 11 - Computerized system validation demands rigorous software qualification.ICH Q7 & Q10 - Guidelines call for robust quality systems and contamination controls.ISO 13485 - Medical device-related pharmaceuticals require strict risk mitigation.Non-compliance not only invites costly FDA warning letters and import alerts but also jeopardizes patient safety. VikingDetector? is built from the ground up to help you meet and exceed these demanding requirements. 3. VikingDetector? OverviewThe VikingDetector? 35 mm Gravity-Feed Metal Detector comprises three major subsystems:Detection Head - A precision 35 mm aperture detection coil encased in 316L stainless steel, optimized for true gravity-feed operation.Control Console - A validated controller with a 7″ industrial-grade touchscreen, featuring role-based access, data logging, and recipe management.Reject Mechanism - A high-speed pneumatic flap or diverter valve that isolates contaminated product in under 50 milliseconds.Together, these modules deliver a turnkey solution for pharmaceutical lines that demand uncompromising detection sensitivity, cleanability, and regulatory compliance. 4. Key Technical Features4.1 35 mm Precision ApertureOptimized Throughput - The diameter balances maximum free-fall volume with enhanced sensitivity to detect 0.3 mm ferrous and 0.5 mm non-ferrous particles.Uniform Detection Field - Engineered coil geometry ensures consistent sensitivity across the full aperture.4.2 Advanced Multi-Frequency DetectionDual- and Triple-Frequency Modes - Compensate for product effect (e.g., high-moisture or conductive powders like magnesium stearate).Auto-Tune & Auto-Balance - Real-time adaptive algorithms maintain peak sensitivity despite temperature drift or product variation.4.3 Food- and Pharma-Grade Construction316L Stainless Steel - Electropolished finish to Ra ≤ 0.4 μm, eliminating microbial harborage points.IP66 Protection - Dust tight and water resistant, capable of daily CIP spraydowns.FDA & EC 1935/2004 Compliance - All wetted parts meet global food- and pharma-grade material requirements.4.4 Intuitive Touchscreen Control7″ Color TFT Display - High-resolution, glove-friendly interface.Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) - Separate operator, supervisor, and QA levels with password protection and audit trails.Multi-Language Support - English, German, Chinese, Japanese, and more.4.5 Modular, Gravity-Feed DesignCompact Footprint - Fits beneath hoppers, access panels, or within fume hoods.Quick-Release Clamps - Tool-less removal of inspection head for rapid CIP cleaning.Variable Inlet Angles - Adjustable 60°-90° configurations to match line geometry.4.6 Automatic Reject & Validation SystemsPneumatic Flap Diverter - Closed-loop control minimizes false rejects and reduces waste.In-Process Validation - Built-in standard test piece (STP) insert allows push-button validation without line shutdown.Alarm Notification - Visual and audible alerts plus optional SCADA/PLC integration via 4-20 mA, Profibus, or Ethernet/IP. 5. Compliance & CertificationThe VikingDetector? platform is designed and manufactured in an ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 13485:2016 facility, ensuring consistent quality controls.
