Fortress Unveils Easy-Access Reject Device for Gravity Metal Detectors

By Food Safety Magazine Editorial Team

December 5, 2025

Accessing a Gravity metal detector's reject device and removing it from service for deep cleans and maintenance can be difficult when the reject mechanism is enclosed.

To address some of the most common issues encountered in gravity metal detection, Fortress Technology has designed a roll-out reject device to support faster changeovers and better hygiene.

The new design allows the reject valve to roll out on rails, providing quick and easy access to the product flow area inside the valve and product tube. This feature gives operatives complete access to working parts for maintenance and cleaning once correctly locked out, ensuring optimal hygiene conditions for gravity reject devices.    

Unlike other reject devices, such as clean-out doors, the valve’s body rigidity is not compromised.
