X-Ray

In the food industry, an X-ray machine is used for product inspection and quality control. Its main purpose is to detect and remove physical contaminants and ensure product integrity and safety.

1. Contaminant Detection:

   • Identifies foreign objects such as:

     • Metal

     • Glass

     • Stones

     • Bone

     • Dense plastics or rubber

   • Especially effective where metal detectors fall short (e.g., in products packaged in foil or metalized film).

2. Quality Control Checks:

   • Verifies product weight and fill levels

   • Detects broken or missing components

   • Ensures seal integrity

   • Identifies product trapped in packaging seams

• Bakery products (detect stones, bone, glass)

• Packaged ready meals (check for foreign matter)

• Dairy, meat, poultry, seafood (detect bone or metal)

• Snacks and confectionery (quality and contamination check)

• Non-destructive inspection (doesn’t harm the product)

• Works on sealed, boxed, or foil-wrapped items

• Ensures compliance with food safety standards like BRC, IFS, and HACCP

X-ray machines help protect brand reputation, reduce recall risks, and meet global safety regulations.
