or materials. For example, a manufacturer that produces aluminum alloy products can
increase security by using Equalization channels that selectively enhance the detection
response from objects manufactured from aluminum. At the same time, ferrous material
can be discriminated against.

17.1
THE NEED FOR DETECTION ENHANCEMENT
In theory, a “perfect” metal detector generates an identical detection response for all
objects of the same size and shape irrespective of their metal composition. In reality,
metal detectors respond differently to signal originating from objects made of different
metals. The situation is further complicated when an object is made from a combination
of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Metal characteristics such as permeability,
conductivity, thickness of material and heat treatment all influence the way in which
metal objects interact with a detector. Detection is also affected by the shape and surface
area of the object and orientation which it is carried.
From an operating perspective, the above characteristics mean that variations in metal
compositions can produce some unpredictable results. For example, a small handgun may
generate a much stronger detection response than a weapon that is physically much
larger.
