The upgrade also has automatic setup options to simplify product setup during installation as well as automatic clustering to facilitate inspection of different products when in production. Flexibility and efficiency are enhanced as food manufacturers can swiftly change products with minimal downtime. The increased usability means that less training is necessary, reducing manufacturing costs.

Its new Condition Monitoring system continually checks the upgraded Signature metal detector's operational processes, alerting users to maintain optimum performance. The Touch LS's password protection and, detection and access logs further boost product inspection security and due diligence for the manufacturer.

"The Touch LS interface can meet this need. With minimal on-site installation time existing owners of Signature metal detectors can benefit from minimised downtime and increased usability, maximising the efficiency of their production lines".
