RAYCON product inspection systems detect all contaminants that due to their density, chemical composition, or mechanical dimensions absorb X-radiation to a lesser or greater degree than the surrounding product.
The RAYCON X-ray system has an integrated conveyor belt that is designed for use in wet or dry applications and inspects packaged food product for contaminants or other unwanted defects.
It features accurate in-line detection of magnetic or non-magnetic metals, glass, ceramic, stone, bone, PVC, rubber, etc., even in metallic or metal-coated packaging such as foil. The X-ray inspection software is also optimized to identify product defects such as broken, deformed or missing product with minimal operator training.
USED FOR
The RAYCON X-ray system provides a large variety of product inspection possibilities:
Detection of contaminants (metals, glass, ceramics, stones, raw bones, PVC, Teflon, rubber, fibreglass-reinforced plastics, …) in packaged or unpackaged food materials.
Checkweighing of the complete product or of individual product components, e.g. separate side dishes.
Integrity checking in closed packaging (e.g. missing chocolate, biscuits).
Detection of agglomerated, deformed, or broken products.
Detection of trapped air in tubes and cans.
Unlike ferrous-in-foil sensors, metal contaminants consisting of non-magnetic stainless steels and non-ferrous metals (brass, copper, …) can be detected in aluminium packaged food.
