Diary Food X Ray Inspection Equipment

X-Ray inspection is highly effective at detecting a range of dense physical contaminants including all metals, glass, stone, calcified bone and high-density plastics and rubbers. In addition to identifying contaminants, X-Ray systems can perform a wide range of in-line quality control checks for product integrity, including identifying missing or broken parts, monitoring fill levels, detecting product stucked within the seal and checking for damaged products and packaging.

The radiation dose levels used for X-Ray inspection in the food and pharmaceutical industries are extremely low and have no effect on product safety, flavor or texture. The use of X-Ray inspection equipment is highly-regulated and increasingly common. Modern X-Ray systems are perfectly safe in working environments as long as recommended safety guidance is followed.

An X-Ray system can be installed at the beginning of a process to inspect incoming raw material, at any stage during the manufacturing processing or at the end of the production line. Using the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) process is the surest way to ensure products are free from contaminants. Manufacturers should perform a review of the production process and identify risks to product safety. Where a risk of physical contamination is identified, a Critical Control Point

False Reject Rate (FRR) is defined as the percentage of falsely rejected products on a production line. Our advanced X-Ray inspection software automates product set-up and changeovers to ensure outstanding detection sensitivity levels, minimizing false rejects.

The product being produced and the type of likely contaminants will help you determine whether an X-Ray system or metal detector is the most suitable technology. In some cases, using both technologies at different critical control points (CCP's) may be the best option.
