What are industrial inspection and control systems?
Inspection and control systems are technologies that automatically verify the quality, safety and compliance of products during production. They make it possible to detect contaminants, check weight, verify the fill level and the integrity of packs, reducing waste and preventing non-compliant products from being distributed.
What is the difference between a metal detector and an X-ray inspection system?
A metal detector detects metal contaminants only, whereas an X-ray system also identifies non-metallic contaminants such as glass, stone, calcified bone and some types of high-density plastic, as well as verifying the integrity of the product.
What is a checkweigher used for?
A checkweigher automatically checks the weight of every pack on the line, rejecting products outside tolerance and guaranteeing compliance with quality and regulatory standards.
When is it necessary to use a level control or seal control system?
Level control systems verify that every pack contains the correct quantity of product, while seal control systems make sure that packs are perfectly sealed, avoiding leaks and preserving quality and safety.
Can several inspection systems be combined on the same production line?
Yes, metal detectors, X-ray systems, checkweighers and level or seal control systems can be integrated on the same line to guarantee complete, automated quality control.
