X-ray equipment for foreign object detection in food
A Food X-ray Inspection Machine is a specialized equipment used in the food industry to detect contaminants and foreign objects inside food products. It ensures the safety and quality of food by using X-ray technology to inspect and identify potential hazards such as metals, glass, stones, plastics, and other foreign materials. The machine provides highly accurate detection while ensuring compliance with food safety standards.
Key Features:
1. High Sensitivity Detection
Capable of identifying very small contaminants, such as metal fragments or glass shards, ensuring high-quality standards for food products.
2. X-ray Tube Power
The machine utilizes an X-ray tube with adjustable power (measured in kilovolts and milliamps) for optimal penetration and clarity, ensuring accurate detection even through complex packaging.
3. Real-time Imaging
Provides real-time X-ray imaging, allowing operators to quickly identify and analyze any defects or contaminants in the food products.
4. High Resolution Imaging
Equipped with high-resolution sensors, the machine generates clear and detailed images of the food contents, enabling accurate detection of both small and large foreign objects.
5. Automatic Contaminant Detection
Built-in software with advanced algorithms automatically detects and marks foreign objects such as metals, glass, and plastics, reducing the need for manual inspection.
6. Adaptability to Different Food Types
The machine is capable of inspecting various types of food products, including solid foods, liquids, semi-solids, and even frozen or heat-treated items.
7. Fast Throughput
Designed to inspect food products at high speeds, ensuring efficient processing and high-volume production lines. It typically measures throughput in units per hour or kilograms per hour.
8. Product Size Range
Can accommodate a wide range of food product sizes, from small packaged goods to large bulk food items.
9. Data Management and Reporting
The machine's software allows for easy data logging, real-time monitoring, and detailed reporting on detected contaminants, inspection results, and machine performance.
10. Compliance with Safety Standards
Meets international food safety regulations and certifications (e.g., FDA, EU) ensuring that food inspection processes are compliant with health and safety guidelines.
11.User-Friendly Interface
Features an intuitive touchscreen interface for easy operation and customization of inspection parameters, with minimal training required for operators.
12. Hygienic Design and Easy Cleaning
Designed for ease of cleaning and maintenance, with smooth, stainless steel surfaces and features that meet hygiene standards for the food industry.
13. Multi-language Support
Supports multiple languages in the software interface, allowing operators in various regions to use the machine effectively.
Applications:
Food X-ray inspection machines are commonly used in:
- Food Processing Plants: To ensure food products are free from foreign contaminants during production.
- Packaged Food: For inspecting sealed packages to detect any internal defects or contamination.
- Frozen and Fresh Foods: To detect foreign objects in items ranging from frozen meat to fresh produce.
Advantages:
- Non-destructive Testing: X-ray inspection does not damage food products, ensuring that the integrity of the items is maintained.
- High Precision: Capable of detecting very small contaminants that may be missed by traditional metal detectors or visual inspections.
- Increased Efficiency: Automated detection speeds up the inspection process, reducing the need for manual checks and improving overall production efficiency.
Safety Features:
- The X-ray machine is designed with radiation shielding to ensure safe operation, and it complies with industry-standard radiation safety protocols.
