FAQs
What are the benefits of using an industrial x-ray inspection system in food and pharmaceutical production lines?
For optimal quality control in the food industry and quality control in the pharmaceutical industry, manufacturers often use industrial x-ray inspection systems to maximize the safety and quality of their products. These advanced inspection systems are able to detect physical contaminants in products while simultaneously performing a wide range of in-line quality control checks. Installing an industrial x-ray inspection system helps to protect the brand and reputation of manufacturers while avoiding the risk of potentially expensive product recalls.
How safe is the use of industrial x-ray inspection in food or pharmaceutical products?
The radiation dose levels used for industrial x-ray inspection in food and x-ray inspection of pharmaceuticals are extremely low and have no effect on product safety, flavor, or texture. The use of industrial x-ray inspection equipment in manufacturing is highly regulated and is becoming increasingly common. Modern industrial x-ray systems are perfectly safe in working environments as long as recommended safety guidance is followed.
What level of detection can industrial x-ray inspection systems achieve?
Our industrial x-ray inspection systems are highly sensitive machines, capable of discovering small foreign objects or inconsistencies in the product. This sensitivity is achieved through many factors, including a robust x-ray power source, the detector's precise resolution, and the cutting-edge image processing algorithms used in our software. METTLER TOLEDO has product options with dual-energy x-ray sources, detection width as wide as 600mm, and diode sizes as small as 0.4mm for optimum precision in x-ray imaging.
How do I determine the appropriate industrial x-ray inspection system for my facility?
To determine the appropriate industrial x-ray inspection system you will require, you must consider several factors, including the type of product being inspected, the product size and packaging, the desired inspection speed, the level of detection sensitivity required, and any specific industry regulations or guidelines that need to be followed.
Why not consult with our industrial x-ray inspection system experts, who can assess your requirements and provide tailored recommendations to select the system most suitable to your needs?
Which industries use industrial x-ray inspection technology?
Industrial x-ray inspection systems are used in various production sites for foreign body contamination inspection and for overall quality control assurances. They are used for quality control and product inspection of food and beverages - including pet foods - and are also used for quality inspection of cosmetics and personal care products, quality assurance of pharmaceuticals, and more.
