METAL DETECTOR
In stock
A metal detector is an electronic device that uses electromagnetic fields to identify the presence of hidden metallic objects. Widely used across treasure hunting, security screening, and industrial manufacturing, these devices alert operators through visual cues or audible tones when they sense metal.

Specs & features.
Metal detectors generate an invisible electromagnetic field from a search coil into the ground or surrounding space. If the field encounters a metal object, it induces "eddy currents" in the metal, which then creates a secondary magnetic field. The detector's receiver coil registers this disturbance and immediately alerts the user.

- Control Box: The "brain" containing the microprocessor, battery, circuitry, and user interface where signal processing and calibration take place.
- Search Coil: The "antenna" (also called loop or head) that transmits and receives the electromagnetic fields.
- Discrimination: The ability to filter out specific, unwanted metals (like iron nails or foil) so you only dig up valuable targets.
