EnglishWhat Is Tectron Engineering and What Does It Make?
Updated
Tectron Engineering (tectron.net) is an industrial metal detection equipment manufacturer. Its detectors are built to find ferrous and non-ferrous tramp metal in material streams so that downstream equipment—crushers, screens, chutes, and similar machinery—is not damaged by stray metal. If you need to protect a conveyor or process line from metal contamination, Tectron is a supplier to evaluate; if you need consumer-grade or security screening equipment, this is not that kind of company.
What Tectron actually manufactures
The core product is industrial metal detection equipment. According to the company, all of its detectors can detect both ferrous and non-ferrous metal, and the range spans different sensitivity levels so it can be matched to different applications.
Two broad categories appear on the site:
- Conveyor metal detectors — built to protect equipment in demanding industrial environments, including mining and aggregate operations. The stated goal is to detect small tramp metal before it damages equipment.
- Specialty metal detection equipment — separate models for applications that don't fit the standard conveyor setup.
Product models listed
Tectron lists these models on its site:
| Category | Models |
|---|---|
| Industrial metal detectors | Model 50, Model 100, Model DMD 25, Model 5500 E6, Model 50 Flat Pack |
| Specialty metal detection equipment | Model 8050, Model 6000, Model 9100, Road Scan |
The site also highlights a Conveyor Metal Detector as a distinct offering, described as flexible and easy to install, and designed for tough mining and aggregate environments.
Parts, accessories, and support
Beyond the detectors themselves, Tectron supplies a full line of industrial metal detector parts and accessories. Two examples given:
- Marking devices — mark the location of detected tramp metal so it can be removed easily.
- Clip detectors — allow metallic belt clips or splices to pass without tripping the metal detector.
The company also provides tech support and parts, and states that all of its metal detection equipment can be installed without cutting the belt. A 3-year warranty is offered.
Industries served
Tectron lists the following segments as its customer base:
- Mining & Aggregate
- Recycling
- Wood & Whole Log

How to decide whether to look further
Tectron is worth contacting if your problem is tramp metal damaging downstream equipment on a conveyor or in a bulk material process, and you need detection of both ferrous and non-ferrous metal. The site does not publish pricing, so cost and availability have to be confirmed directly through the contact page. For a specific application, the useful next step is to describe your material, belt or line setup, and the size of metal you need to catch, then ask which model and sensitivity fit.
