Advanced foreign object inspection for full beverage containers
In the beverage industry, detecting and eliminating foreign objects within full containers is critical to prevent recalls, liability cases, and brand damage. Traditional inspection methods often struggle with detecting minute glass fragments and low-density contaminants in full bottles, posing significant challenges.
Detect and remove foreign objects in beverages
The HEUFT eXaminer II XOS is an innovative solution designed for high-precision foreign object detection in full beverage containers. This system employs advanced pulsed X-ray technology and intelligent image processing to identify high-density contaminants like glass fragments and metal, as well as low-density objects such as mold and foil. With a false rejection rate of less than 0.2 percent, it provides reliable glass-in-glass detection, even under challenging conditions like varying glass thickness and turbidity. Additionally, the AI-supported HEUFT reflexx A.I image processing ensures accurate differentiation between real and supposed faults. The system integrates optical 360° sidewall inspection and radiometric bottom inspection for a comprehensive check, making it suitable for the beverage, food, and pharma industries. HEUFT is the supplier and brand behind this cutting-edge technology, ensuring that products exceed IFS Food certification requirements for safety and quality.
