Aicon Scan

X-ray systems for the inspection of food, pharmaceutical products, and packaging

The Scan XR series is Aicon’s core X-ray inspection range for food products, the pharmaceutical sector, and packaging, both for individual packs and for multipacks or grouped packaging. Developed to tackle the challenges of modern production in food, pharmaceutical, and industrial environments, the Scan XR Series provides effective protection against contaminants and quality issues, such as broken or incomplete products, at different points along the production line. With Aicon Scan X-ray inspection systems, manufacturers gain a solution that combines high detection sensitivity, application flexibility and robust production performance. Whether for packed food products, pharmaceutical items, or complex packaging formats, Aicon Scan X-ray systems deliver reliable quality inspection, protect brand reputation, and support regulatory compliance. Thanks to high-speed data processing (up to 10 Gb/s) and high throughput capacity (up to 1,000 ppm in the most powerful models), the Scan XR Series meets the requirements of the most demanding production lines. Each system is equipped with advanced image analysis algorithms and can optionally feature Dual Energy Imaging technology to enhance material discrimination in complex or overlapping products.

The Main Benefits

icona soddisfazione

Designed to handle a wide variety of products, formats, and packaging materials, Aicon Scan X-ray inspection systems reach speeds of up to 1,000 ppm and deliver stable inspection performance even on high-throughput lines. The modular architecture makes it easy to integrate the systems into both new installations and existing lines.

icona inserimento dati

All models in the series are built in stainless steel with a hygienic design and a protection rating up to IP69, ideal for wet environments and frequent wash-down. Continuous self-diagnostics and an inverted inspection logic ensure safe, consistent operation, lowering the risk of errors and simplifying maintenance.

icona interconnessioni

Aicon Scan X-ray inspection systems are easily configured for different packaging types for food and pharmaceutical products (trays, flow-wraps, pouches, doypacks, and cartons), while maintaining inspection speeds up to 1,000 ppm. With 10 Gb/s processing capability, they deliver sharp images and real-time analysis, even on high-speed lines and in intensive production environments.
