Inspection system for detecting film shreds and mould on cheese blocks

Ensure flawless cheese quality by detecting hidden film residues and mould with precision in your production line.

Detects Mould and Film Residues

The Eagle Eye 2 from ALPMA Alpenland Maschinenbau GmbH is an advanced inspection system designed specifically for cheese and dairy producers. What sets this system apart is its ability to detect even transparent film residues and mould on cheese blocks with a hit rate greater than 99%, ensuring unparalleled quality assurance.

The system works by automatically transporting cheese blocks through a multi-station scanning process. It begins by scanning five sides of the block before tilting it for bottom inspection, seamlessly integrating into fully automated production lines.

Capable of processing a variety of cheese types, including Cheddar and Euro blocks, at a rate of up to 5 blocks per minute, the Eagle Eye 2 offers high-speed, continuous operation tailored for demanding production environments. Its sleek PLC-controlled design allows for effective integration into existing manufacturing systems, enhancing overall efficiency without compromising quality.

Constructed to withstand the rigors of food processing, the Eagle Eye 2 aligns with industry standards and offers ease of maintenance. This crucial inspection tool is vital for production facilities prioritizing superior product quality and operational efficiency.
