Loma Systems' new IQ4 RUN-WET Metal Detector Conveyor was debuted during PACK EXPO Connects. The system is specifically designed for high-care environments where machinery clean-up is particularly harsh and frequent. 

The RUN-WET specification of the Loma IQ4 Metal Detector is IP69k rated and hygienically designed following some of the key EHEDG principles offering the best cleaning standards to withstand harsh high-pressure and high-temperature cleaning regimes, whilst maximizing production efficiencies.

"The IQ4 RUN-WET includes a number of enhanced hygienic features that directly meet the needs of some of our users' top concerns," said Antoine Dodier, customer relations manager at Loma Systems, An ITW Company. "Not all processing equipment is made to withstand harsh environments, in fact, some parts of the processing line are simply covered during washdown.
