AUTO-CHECK AUTOMATIC TESTING SYSTEM FOR METAL DETECTOR The Auto-Check system automatically tests the functionality of your metal check process. The system inserts the three test pieces (stainless steel, ferrous, and non-ferrous) into the metal check head at regularly specified time intervals. Since the test tablets go through the metal check head in a separate chamber (not in contact with the product), there is no risk of product contamination with a non-detected test piece. The Auto-Check is an especially valuable tool for companies producing high potency drugs who are looking for...
