Hand Held Needle Detector

Needle detector machine in garment industry


A needle detector machine is used to detect needles on the surface of fabrics. The machine is used in the textile industry to detect whether or not there are needles embedded in garments. It is also used in the medical field, where it can be used to detect whether or not an individual has been injected with an illegal substance.


The needle detector machine uses a laser beam to scan a section of fabric that is being scanned. The beam is passed over the surface of the fabric, which allows it to scan for any sharp objects that may be present. If there are any sharp objects present within the area being scanned, they will be reflected back towards the laser scanner in order to produce an image of what is present within that area. This produces an image showing those areas where there are sharp objects present on your garment or material being tested for needles.


This process has been automated so that it can be performed by machines instead of humans; this reduces costs associated with human labor as well as increases productivity through automation

Needle detector machine is used in the garment industry to detect the presence of needles in garments. The machine consists of a conveyor belt that runs through the entire length of the area from which garments are removed. The conveyor belt has several holes, each covered by a suction tube or suction cup. When needles are dropped on the conveyor belt, they pass through these holes and are detected by one of these devices.


The needle detector machine can also be used to detect other objects such as pins, safety pins, bobby pins, and other sharp objects that may cause injury to workers during the production process.

Introduce of hand held needle detector 

The Needle Detective Handheld Needle Detector is a powerful handheld needle, staple, and small metal object detector. 

This powerful detector can locate a paper staple at 1/2" and a sewing needle at 1 1/2". 

The Needle Detective is a very versatile and powerful hand held mixed metal detector. 

Applcations of hand held needle detector

Hand-held type needle detector designed specifically for detection of broken or complete needles in garments and fabrics.

 The Needle Detective handheld needle detector is designed for several applications including woodworking metal detection, materials inspection, etc.

 Its ideal for pin-pointing metal in fabrics, canvas, plastics, and other materials. 

The Needle Detective magnetic needle detector provides an excellent solution for the inspection of garments that have been "contaminated" with attached metal decorations. 

Such garments are often difficult, or impossible to scan by other types of needle detectors. 

Operation of hand held needle detector 

The Needle Detective operation is very simple; just hold the detector and move it over the surface you wish to scan. 

Whenever metal is detected an audible alarm is activated along with a visual flashing light and a buzzer.

 Immediately alerts the operator of where setting pins, sewing needles, or sewing machine needles, staples and other metal objects are left in materials.
