Product inspection systems for contamination control

Ensure product safety and compliance with precision inspection technology designed to detect contaminants and verify weights, enhancing manufacturing integrity and consumer trust.

Detects Contaminants and Ensures Accurate Weights

Our Checkweighers, X-Ray Inspection, and Metal Detection Systems are engineered by Viking Masek to address the critical needs of high-speed, continuous operations in diverse industries such as food, beverage, and medical sectors. These systems are designed to detect foreign contaminants and ensure accurate package weights, minimizing the risk of recalls and enhancing product integrity.

The equipment operates by integrating precision weighing mechanisms with advanced X-ray and sensory technology to inspect products thoroughly. Suitable for applications ranging from solid foods to powders and liquids, these systems support the production of end-products like espresso coffee beans, orange juice, and pregnancy test kits.

Boasting a high throughput capacity, our solutions are tailored for seamless integration into existing production lines with automation capabilities that allow for remote monitoring. Designed with energy efficiency in mind, the equipment reduces operational costs by utilizing optimized motor controls. Fabricated from durable materials, they comply with industry standards such as GMP and FDA, ensuring the highest level of safety and sanitary operation.

Easy to maintain, these systems feature user-friendly interfaces and CIP (Clean-In-Place) capabilities for efficient, contamination-free internal cleaning. Additionally, Viking Masek provides comprehensive engineering support, facilitating customization options that include specific size configurations and enhanced detection features to meet unique production requirements.
