Customer Success: Verified Results

"The YL-508L's specialized foil detection eliminated 99% of false alarms in our coffee pouch line. With 1.5mm sensitivity, we caught a metal fragment that would have been missed by our old detector—saving us $120K in potential recalls."
— Maria Chen, Quality Control Manager, Global Coffee Solutions (Singapore)

"The open conveyor design made washdowns 70% faster than our previous system. For our foil-packaged snacks, the YL-508L is a game-changer for HACCP compliance."
— David Roberts, Plant Manager, SnackMaster Foods (USA)
