Optimized detection for logs and large wood products
In the wood industry, metal contamination can occur unpredictably and have immediate effects on cutting and processing equipment. Such applications require a robust detector with a large detection zone and stable performance under real industrial conditions.
The CASSEL Metal Shark Octa was developed specifically for use in forestry and sawmills. Its octagonal shape makes it ideal for inspecting whole logs and large timber products, particularly on troughed belt conveyors.
High sensitivity in challenging conditions
Using 4-quadrant technology, the system accurately detects both ferrous and non-ferrous metals, as well as stainless steel. Detection stability is maintained even in challenging environmental conditions, where dust, humidity, or temperature fluctuations can affect other types of equipment.
Easy to use and fully documented
TeachAssistant simplifies commissioning, and the intuitive menus allow for quick deployment of the system in production. Events and metal alerts are logged, and SHARKNET can be used for integration and centralized monitoring.
Designed for industrial reliability
The stainless steel construction and automatic calibration and self-diagnostic functions reduce maintenance requirements. The system is designed for long-term operation in applications where reliability is more important than unnecessary complexity.
What applications is it suitable for?
- sawmills and primary wood processing
- monitoring of logs and large timber products
- safety of saws and woodworking machinery
- industrial applications using trough-type conveyor belts
