MDI TWA-2000 Whole Log Metal Detector

Here’s a tight, website-ready description in your style—practical, credible, and built off actual MDI language and typical field setups:

MDI TWA-2000 Whole Log Metal Detector

The MDI TWA-2000 is a proven whole log metal detection system designed to protect downstream equipment and improve lumber recovery by identifying tramp metal before it enters the mill.

Built with MDI’s MP-4 digital technology, this system delivers high sensitivity and stable performance even in challenging environments such as hardwood mills processing dense species. It is specifically engineered to detect embedded metal in full logs—where accuracy and reliability are critical to avoiding saw damage and costly downtime.

The TWA-2000 utilizes a multi-sided aperture design, available in various configurations to suit different log sizes and installation requirements, while maintaining consistent detection across the full scanning area.

Advanced signal processing helps minimize false trips caused by moisture, mineral content, and electrical interference, allowing the system to maintain maximum sensitivity without sacrificing reliability.

Key Features:

• Designed for whole log scanning ahead of primary breakdown
• MP-4 digital control system for improved sensitivity and stability
• Multi-sided or round aperture configurations to fit application requirements
• Advanced filtering to reduce environmental interference and product effect
• High detection capability in dense hardwood logs
• Proven performance in demanding mill environments

Includes feed-through conveyor with 36" wide belt, detection coil, and control package.

MDI whole log metal detectors are widely used throughout the forest products industry and are known for reducing downtime, protecting equipment, and improving overall mill efficiency. (Metal Detectors Inc.)
