ENSURE MAXIMUM CONSUMER SAFETY
WITH ISHIDA X-RAY INSPECTION SYSTEMS
Ensuring physical contaminants in food, such as metal,
glass, stone, plastic and bone are detected and removed
remains a constant challenge for food processors.
Contaminants may be as small as one mm in diameter –
too small to accurately detect with the human eye.
Modern food
processors
check every item
using automated
inspection lines.
Ishida’s range of sophisticated
X-ray inspection machines
identify inconsistencies, physical
defects, and/or contaminants
within packaging. Suitable for
pouches, bottles, cans, jars or flow
of product passing through the
system, the X-ray system gentlehanding
technique poses no risk of
damaging food products.
An X-ray inspection system is
the final check in a complete
inspection line, and often used in
conjunction with check weighers
and metal detectors – ensuring
maximum integrity. Contaminants
can be foreign bodies in the
product such as pieces of glass,
stone, shell, pebbles, bone, and
plastics including hard rubber,
Nylon, PVC, and Teflon, as well as
