X-Ray Inspection Systems

Bulk Product Inspection

Inspecting loose product before it reaches the packaging machine keeps contamination out of finished packs and avoids scrapping good product along with bad. Material is spread across a wide belt and each piece is judged individually; a 48- to 96-way array injection valve blows out only the affected piece, so good-product loss stays low even at high belt speeds. Product defects such as wormholes and debris are found in the same pass.
