Advancements in metal detection
25 July 2014
Fortress Technology will be demonstrating latest technologies for its diverse range of custom-manufactured metal detectors at the PPMA Show.

Fortress’s Never Obsolete Commitment protects investments by providing customers with the ability to upgrade their current Fortress detector without having to purchase an entirely new system.
This software has been developed to be compatible with all previously manufactured Fortress detectors and can be field installed on their Phantom and Stealth models. The FM software analyses the detection signal and uses an algorithm to calculate signal strength based on a function of time and amplitude. Fortress says this can improve performance in certain applications, including large bags, by at least 40%. Increasing detection sensitivities lowers the occurrence of false rejects and ultimately increases the ROI of a Fortress Metal Detection System.
Also on display, will be the company's Halo technology; an automatic metal detector testing system. Stand B 01
