Conveyor x-ray inspection for large food packaging

In the food industry, maintaining product integrity and safety is crucial, with a particular need for efficient contaminant detection and inspection of large packaged items. Traditional methods often miss critical faults and contaminants, posing a risk to consumer safety and product quality.

Detect contaminants and inspect product quality

The Xpertâ„¢ Conveyor X-Ray Inspection Systems from Thermo Fisher Scientific serve as advanced solutions for ensuring food safety and quality by leveraging high performance vertical x-ray beams to inspect bags, boxes, and other flat packages. The systems are specifically designed to identify contaminants such as metal, glass, and dense plastics that other methods may overlook. Equipped with a powerful software, these inspection systems reduce false rejects and can meet rigorous HACCP and retailer food safety standards. The Xpert Conveyor systems are configurable for various applications and challenging factory environments, with options to upgrade to IP69K washdown specifications for enhanced durability in harsh conditions. Featuring a 15-inch diagonal touchscreen with a protective cover for easy operation, these systems support up to 8 lanes simultaneously to maximize throughput and cost-efficiency. The systems operate at belt speeds of up to 40 meters per minute and can accommodate conveyor heights of 800 to 1000 mm with frames available for nominal line heights of 1200 and 1400 mm.
