GENIUS Foods has announced a ‘significant’ upgrade of its quality control processes across key manufacturing lines at its Bathgate bakery.
The specialist in gluten free bakery has signed a deal with Loma Systems to deliver improved data management, service levels, and superior metal detection performance.
Combining technology and quick recovery functionality, the firm’s IQ4M metal detector features OPC-UA connectivity, RFID log on and an intuitive touch screen for improved security and usability.
Loma conducted rigorous testing of its new IQ4M metal detector combination unit, featuring multi-spectrum technology and Loma’s patented variable frequency, demonstrating substantial improvements in reducing false rejects across Genius’ bread, rolls and pancake production. Loma‘s TRACS data management system was also introduced to provide Genius Foods with access to real-time production data, enhancing their operational efficiency.
Stephen Hann, chief executive officer at Genius Foods, said, “We are committed to utilising leading technology and processes to ensure the highest quality of our products and efficiency of our operations.
“We’re excited to be introducing Loma Systems’ advanced IQ4M metal detection technology, along with their enhanced data reporting capabilities, and responsive service levels.”
Ralph Mbanefo, international sales & service director at Loma Systems, added, “Being a partner of choice to Genius Foods is indicative of a customer who values trust, reliability and advanced technology. Our commitment to provide technology leadership, coupled with highly supportive local service and repair ensures that Genius Foods can maintain their high operational standards.”
