FAQ
Q1: What is SM?
A: SM is a metal-detectable silicone suction cup option, designed to improve detectability in metal-detection processes if a cup is damaged.
Q2: What cups can SM be applied to?
A: SM is a material option that can be applied to various cup shapes. Availability depends on whether "SM" is listed as a material option in each cup series.
Q3: What problem does SM address?
A: It is intended to help reduce foreign-matter mixing risk in production lines where contamination control matters.
Q4: What material is SM?
A: SM is the material code for metal detectable silicone.
Q5: Does SM define a fixed pad diameter or cup shape?
A: No. SM defines the material; pad diameter, shape, and fittings depend on the selected suction cup series.
Q6: What is the fastest way to select a model?
A: Choose the required cup shape/size and fittings first, then pick the model with SM listed as the material option in that series.
Q7: Does SM eliminate foreign-matter risk completely?
A: SM is a risk-reduction material option. Process controls and inspection are still required.
Q8: What applications is SM commonly used for?
A: It is commonly used in food and medical applications where foreign-matter risk control is important.
