X-ray food inspection system for loose products
Ensure contaminant-free loose products by integrating a versatile inspection system capable of detecting metals, bone, glass, and dense plastics with precision, maintaining high production efficiency and food safety standards.
Detects and Rejects Contaminants in Loose Products
The X5 Bulk Flow X-ray Inspection System from Loma Systems is designed for food manufacturers seeking to improve product safety by detecting and rejecting contaminants in loose products. Utilizing a 0.4mm detector array coupled with Loma’s Adaptive Array Technology (AAT), this system offers unparalleled detection accuracy for bone, metal, glass, stone, dense plastics, and ceramics. Capable of inspecting products ranging from cereals and grains to snacks and jerky, the X5 Bulk Flow supports continuous, high-speed processing environments. With multiple reject options like single-flap, multi-flap, and carriage retraction, it minimizes waste during contaminant rejection. The IP66-rated stainless steel construction ensures durability and hygiene, while features such as a quick-release belt and 15” touchscreen facilitate easy cleaning and operation. Seamlessly integrates into existing production lines with variable line height options, offering supply voltages from 85 to 265 V, and supports data retrieval via USB or Ethernet for robust reporting and monitoring.
