Aicon Scan XR 600 FA


X-ray inspection system for fat content measurement in meat

The Scan XR 600 FA system is designed to provide superior quality control in meat processing operations. With Photon Counting technology (PCT™) and high-speed data processing, it enables precise measurement of fat content in each meat portion while simultaneously detecting internal contaminants or defects. Its outstanding stability over time, regardless of environmental conditions, makes it ideal for demanding production environments with heavy workloads. By combining fat analysis and X-ray inspection, the system helps optimize recipes, standardize batches, and improve overall product yield. Its structure is built for harsh environments: stainless steel construction, heavy-duty hygienic design, and a high protection class ensure reliability and ease of maintenance even during intensive washdown operations. This makes it the perfect solution for meat processing companies aiming to enhance internal quality control, reduce variability, ensure traceability, and protect brand integrity.
