The Main Benefits
High throughput capacity: up to 7,500 kg/hour with conveyor speeds reaching 110 m/min (depending on the application).
Dual Energy Imaging (optional): uses two different X-ray energies to distinguish materials with similar densities, improving accuracy in the detection of contaminants.
Low false reject rate (FRR): the optimised algorithm reduces unjustified rejects, improving productivity.

Description
Effective, reliable detection
Guarantees a high probability of detection (POD) across a wide range of contaminants, including low-density ones.
Application versatility
Suitable for many types of product – irregular, overlapping or granular – thanks to the various image processing algorithms.
High performance
Thanks to 10 Gb/s data processing, the system maintains high throughput even on the fastest lines.
Sustainability and efficiency
Low-consumption technology reduces environmental impact and operating costs.
Complete traceability
All inspection data is archived and can be consulted for audits or quality checks.

FAQ
Which products can be checked with inspection systems?
Inspection systems can check packaged and bulk foods, beverages, pharmaceutical products, cosmetics and many industrial products.
Which contaminants can inspection systems detect?
They can detect metal contaminants, glass, stones, bone, dense plastics and other foreign bodies.
What is the difference between metal detectors and X-ray systems?
Metal detectors identify metal contaminants, whereas X-ray systems also detect other foreign bodies and product defects.
Can inspection systems be integrated into existing lines?
Yes, they can be integrated into new or already operational production lines.
Do inspection systems guarantee regulatory compliance?
Yes, they help to meet the quality and safety standards required by the industry.
