Metal detection for grinders

Designed for CBI grinders, the CBI Metal Detection & Release System includes carefully-placed impact measuring sensors that detect if a rotor tooth strikes tramp metal. The sensor quickly communicates with the machine’s main control system, telling it that metal has been detected. The controller then immediately reverses the feed system, throttles down the engine, and depending on the impact, hydraulically opens the anvil/grate frame assembly at an extremely high rate of speed. This is done without requiring an actual impact against the anvil or grate, allowing a safe ejection of the tramp metal, and minimizing potential damage. The sensitivity of this system is easily adjustable by the operator.
