This is Barry Voorhees. I'm the product manager for metal detection here at Bunting Magnetics. We're located in the North Hall. 5041 is our booth.

We're displaying our new integrated checkware with metal detector and checkware in one unit with one control. One of the things you'll notice is we do not have a display on our unit like you'll see on a lot of checkwares. Everything is through our integrated one touch display. So we can control everything for the metal detector and the checkware all on one screen. So we can look at different products. We can look at our weigh cell and see live motion of what's going on with the cell. We can also look at the metal detector all on one screen.

So, the operator doesn't have to go to different screens to be able to work the unit and be able to operate it correctly. So, a check weigh like this is going to before high speed check weighing up to 250 parts a ] minute. We can go up to about 15, 000 grams with this particular scale and a high speed, high repeatability.

Type system this way. So packaged goods anywhere from box to containers, to powders, to liquids, any of those type of products can be ran on this particular checkware. So this could be anything from granola bars to powders in bags, cake mixes in bags and boxes. It could be bag product, box products, any of those type of products it can handle.
