Johnsonville Sausage, North America’s largest fresh sausage manufacturer, initiated a group wide x-ray project in order to find a final product that delivered reliability, clean-ability and ease of usage.
For a cheese maker with highly automated processes, a combo checkweigher and metal detector made the perfect tool for ensuring compliance with the HACCP regulations applicable to food production.
To further reinforce positive customer experiences, an ice cream manufacturer challenged themselves to further minimize its already small risk of foreign body contamination by implementing x-ray inspection.
More than 200 million baked goods leave a bread manufacturer's plant annually. With such high volume, how does the company ensure its products meet the highest requirements of safety and quality?
A condiments manufacturer integrated an x-ray inspection system to overcome challenges associated with inspecting glass jars with metal lids while enhancing the quality of its products.
When Edesia first opened its factory, the company used inline magnets in their processing line to find contaminants. When they realized they needed a better inspection system, metal detection wasn’t the answer because of the foil pouches used in the packaging process. So Edesia decided to incorporate x-ray into their production line.
Updated FDA guidelines present new risks and challenges for food manufacturers. Fortunately, X-ray inspection offers manufacturers an effective and scalable way to proactively mitigate risk. Find out how.
If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is. That advice extends to investments in capital equipment, including x-ray systems that protect products and brands from costly recalls, food safety problems and quality issues.
Probability of detection (POD) seems like a relatively simple number which vendors use to reassure potential customers of a machine’s capabilities for contaminant detection. However, there is more to the numeric value of POD than just taking it for face value. This white paper explains how POD is calculated and why 100% POD is unachievable and it also looks at factors that affect sensitivity of contamination detection while lastly discussing how the latest innovations in x-ray inspection technology are designed to enhance detection performance, while explaining how food processors can ensure POD is consistent throughout the lifetime of their x-ray system.
Need to eliminate product giveaway while reducing the possibility of recalls? See how package weighing and inspection solutions maximize speed and safety while saving money in dairy applications.
Metal cans are becoming an increasingly popular food packaing option, but they present significant challenges for x-ray inspection systems. Continue reading to learn how to overcome these challenges.
Metal detectors and X-ray inspection systems are widely used for finding foreign body contamination. Let's see how these two systems can work together to improve contaminant detection.
The new Vision sorters series represents the last frontier in the field of opticalelectronic sorters. With years of experience in CCD digital vision technology, this new series uses the revolutionary BLOB ANALYSIS system, the latest frontier in acquiring and processing images.
The success of an X-ray scanner is based largely on the use of powerful software routines combined with high-resolution X-ray images. The software relies on two parameters: grey values and contrast. Grey values represent the differing density of the products inspected. The second parameter is the contrast, which is understood to mean the comparison of a value with its neighboring cells.
Designed for ease-of-use, the X33 offers high detection capabilities, safeguarding brands and consumers, while its low energy consumption reduces the Total Cost of Ownership.
Purposely designed to inspect a variety of unpackaged food products, Safeline X-ray inspection systems are relied upon by food manufacturers in industries such as meat and poultry, bakery, confectionery, snacks, cereals industries. Typical unwrapped food applications include grains, nuts and raw meat, in addition to formed-style products such as frozen pizzas, dough balls, beef burger patties and chicken nuggets. X-ray machines for food inspection deliver the highest detection sensitivity ensuring accuracy, reliability and ease of operation for all unpackaged applications.
Eagle Product Inspection is experienced in providing x-ray inspection solutions to the poultry industry and we understand the different challenges inherent to the industry, especially regarding detection of bones.
The X39 X-ray System is specifically designed for the inspection of frozen-formed products, ensuring your products are free from contaminants and product defects.
