POWERFUL 2-IN-1 SOLUTIONS With the introduction of the next generation of the CM and CX Combination Systems, Mettler- Toledo delivers powerful 2-in-1 inspection solutions that manage Critical Control Points (CCPs) by combining precision weighing with contamination detection in an integrated solution. These new systems offer simplified operation, a space-saving design and reduced total cost of ownership. The integration of the new M30 R-Series and X2 Series also offers higher detection sensitivity, providing an added layer of security and quality control.
THE CM COMBINATION SYSTEM (CHECKWEIGHING AND METAL DETECTION)
The CM Combination System integrates the precision weighing C-Series checkweighers with the advanced M30 R-Series metal detectors, creating a completely flexible solution that enhances the portfolio of combination systems with an optimised price-to-performance ratio. The C-Series checkweighers deliver unparalleled accuracy and precision in weight measurement, facilitating compliance with regulatory standards and minimising product giveaway. They feature intuitive user interfaces and advanced data management capabilities, allowing for seamless integration into existing production lines, plus a smaller machinery footprint accommodates limited factory floor space. For high-end applications, these innovative systems can be configured with the new FlashCell™ load cell technology, this means that the checkweighers can complete precision weighing checks at higher product throughputs. The M30 R-Series and Profile metal detectors are equipped to detect a range of ferrous, non- ferrous, including aluminium and stainless-steel
THE CX COMBINATION SYSTEM (CHECKWEIGHING AND X-RAY INSPECTION)
The CX Combination System integrates the high- precision C-Series checkweighers with state-of-the-art X2 Series x-ray inspection systems, creating a powerful solution for comprehensive quality control. The X2 Series x- ray inspection systems feature innovative ContamPlus™ Software, which runs over 30 inspection algorithms continuously and in parallel, detecting hard-to-find foreign bodies while reducing waste. Also featuring the HiGain detector technology, which generates sharper images to deliver outstanding contaminant detection, these systems are capable of identifying a wide range of contaminants, including metal, glass, stone, calcified bone and high-density plastics, while also performing quality assurance checks such as detecting missing or broken products.
Combined with the precision weighing capabilities of the C-Series checkweighers, equipped with FlashCell technology, this integration offers unparalleled accuracy and consistency for various packaging needs. By bringing these two technologies together, manufacturers can benefit from increased productivity and decreased total cost of ownership. The smart industrial design features easy operation with quick, toolless access to components, enabling belt and curtain removal in less than five minutes. Intuitive user interfaces

contaminants optimising for both wet and dry applications. They offer the highest level of product safety and quality. Utilising advanced signal processing and intelligent detection algorithms, the metal detectors provide superior sensitivity and reliability, improving the capability to detect smaller contaminants and significantly reducing false reject rates.
The combination of these advanced technologies allows manufacturers to tailor inspection solutions to their specific application, packaging and budget needs. By merging precise weighing capabilities with state-of-the-art metal detection, customers achieve maximum flexibility to meet diverse packaging requirements. The system also boasts a space-saving design with full integration on a single frame, facilitating easy cleaning and maintenance while optimising production floor space.
further simplify operation. An additional option is a Smart Catch Bin, the intelligent separation of contaminated or incorrectly weighed products can also help to enhance both safety and efficiency. This integrated solution not only improves detection sensitivity but also optimises overall production line performance.
KEY BENEFITS OF BOTH COMBINATION SYSTEMS:
Maximum Configuration Flexibility: Multiple inspection combination options provide manufacturers with maximum flexibility to find the right solution for their packaging, application and budget needs. This flexibility is achieved by combining the latest advanced contamination detection technologies i.e. M30 R-Series metal detectors and X2 Series x-ray inspection systems, meaning that every need is met. Enhanced Operator Efficiency: One-touch operation via the checkweigher supports easy and automated product changeovers. Statistical and status information for the contamination detection solution and checkweigher are available via one Human Machine Interface (HMI), reducing operator training requirements and minimising the risk of user errors. The advanced HMI design improves usability, making the Combination System user-friendly. Space Saving Design: Shared components, such as conveyors, provide space savings, and having less feet on the floor facilitates easy cleaning. Reduced Total Cost of Ownership: A single vendor solution provides documentation, installation, configuration support, training and service for two technologies in one, reducing costs over the long term.
Additional Quality Assurance Checks: Vision inspection technology is available as an additional option, making a powerful 3-in1 system which can provide comprehensive quality control by detecting packaging defects, verifying label information and maintaining product integrity. Industry 4.0 Ready: Both Combination systems can be connected to ProdX, a state-of-the-art product inspection management software. This complete quality inspection data management system delivers full digital management of product inspection equipment for real-time monitoring and food safety compliance. Visibility of the data can help improve productivity, food safety traceability and facilitate regulatory compliance. Joern Migge, head of Product and Market Management, Mettler-Toledo, says, “We are excited to introduce the new CM and CX Combination Systems to our customers. These innovative solutions provide unparalleled flexibility, enhanced efficiency and significant cost savings. By integrating the latest M30 R- Series metal detectors and X2 Series x-ray inspection systems, we are able to deliver maximum protection and quality assurance for our customers' products."
