PBS Needle detectors for garment factories in Sri Lanka
A broken needle left in a garment becomes a buyer complaint. Needle detectors find metal fragments in garments before they are packed and shipped.
How a needle detector works
Garments pass through the detector on a belt, or are checked with a handheld unit. If a metal fragment is found, the detector alerts the operator or rejects the garment.
Most factories check at the end of the sewing line or before final packing and keep a record of daily test-piece checks for buyer audits.

How much does a needle detector cost in Sri Lanka?

Conveyor or handheld needle detector?
A conveyor detector suits higher volumes and checks every garment on a belt. A handheld unit suits spot checks and smaller runs.

Many garment buyers have needle-control policies. Check yours, and we will help you plan the detector and test records around them.
How do I show the detector is working?
Run a test piece through it at the start of each shift and record the result. We can supply a test-piece kit.
What warranty do needle detectors have?
