+86 15814116500 Advanced X-ray Inspection for Foreign Body Detection and Product Integrity Control
X-ray Inspection System is a non-destructive inspection solution designed to detect foreign contaminants and product defects that cannot be reliably identified by metal detectors or visual inspection alone. By using X-ray imaging technology to analyze density differences inside products, X-ray inspection systems can identify a wide range of contaminants and quality defects hidden within unpackaged or packaged products.
X-ray Inspection Systems are widely used in food processing, meat and poultry, seafood, bulk foods, ready meals, and complex packaged products, helping manufacturers improve food safety, protect brand integrity, and reduce costly recalls.
In many production environments, foreign bodies and defects are not limited to metal contamination. Bone fragments, fish bones, stones, glass, dense plastics, rubber, shells, or product defects such as missing items and shape deviations can still pass through traditional inspection methods.
X-ray inspection systems provide:
100% inline inspection without damaging the product
Detection of both metallic and non-metallic contaminants
Inspection of sealed, opaque, or aluminum-packaged products
Reliable quality control at high production speeds
By installing X-ray inspection at critical control points—such as after processing, before packaging, or at final inspection—manufacturers gain a higher level of product safety and process transparency
Dual-energy X-ray inspection systems are specially designed to detect bone fragments in poultry and meat products. By analyzing density differences at multiple energy levels, these systems improve the detection of low-contrast bones that are difficult to identify using single-energy X-ray technology, helping reduce false rejects while maintaining high detection sensitivity.
X-ray inspection systems for fish bone detection are optimized to identify fine fish bones and hard foreign materials embedded in fillets or processed seafood. These systems are ideal for fresh, frozen, and packaged fish products where visual inspection is ineffective.
For bulk foods such as grains, frozen vegetables, nuts, snacks, and other loose or overlapping products, X-ray inspection systems provide reliable detection even when products are randomly positioned or overlapping, ensuring consistent inspection of large volumes of material.
Unlike optical systems, X-ray inspection can detect contaminants inside aluminum foil packaging, metalized films, cans, and opaque containers, where the contents cannot be visually inspected.
This product category includes specialized X-ray inspection solutions for different applications:
Dual-Energy X-ray Inspection Systems
Designed for advanced bone detection in poultry and meat products, offering improved discrimination between product and contaminants.
X-ray Inspection Machines for Fish Bone Detection
Optimized for seafood applications, detecting fine bones and dense foreign bodies inside fish fillets and processed products.
X-ray Inspection Machines for Bulk Foods
Suitable for loose, overlapping, and continuously flowing food products, enabling stable inspection in high-throughput environments.
Wide Range of Detectable Contaminants
Detects metal, glass, stones, bones, shells, dense plastics, rubber, and other high-density foreign objects.
Foreign Body & Shape Inspection
In addition to contaminant detection, X-ray systems can inspect product shape, missing items, breakage, and abnormal structures.
Density-Based Weight & Fill Level Estimation
Supports relative weight or fill-level inspection for products that cannot be accurately checked using conventional weighing equipment.
Masking & Missing Product Detection
Allows users to define inspection areas and detect missing or incomplete products during inline inspection.
USB and Network Data Management (Optional)
Inspection images, detection data, and production records can be stored locally or managed via network connection for traceability and audits.
Multi-Machine Data Integration
Supports centralized data management across multiple X-ray systems within the production facility.
Operator Safety First
Designed with multiple safety protections to ensure safe operation without requiring special X-ray qualifications.
Low X-ray Exposure Levels
Uses low-energy X-ray sources that comply with international safety standards.
Hygienic Stainless-Steel Construction
Optional waterproof designs meet IP66 standards and support HACCP-compliant cleaning procedures, ideal for food production environments.
Enhanced food safety and quality assurance
Detection of contaminants invisible to metal detectors
Reduced false rejects and minimized product waste
Protection against recalls and brand damage
Reliable inspection of complex, opaque, or aluminum-packaged products
Improved process control and production transparency
When selecting an X-ray inspection system, consider:
Type of product (meat, fish, bulk food, packaged food)
Target contaminants (bone, stone, glass, metal, dense plastics)
Production speed and throughput
Hygiene and cleaning requirements
Integration with existing conveyors and rejection systems
X-ray Inspection Systems provide a higher level of inspection capability for manufacturers who demand comprehensive foreign body detection and product integrity control. Whether for poultry bone detection, fish bone inspection, or bulk food quality control, these systems help ensure that only safe, compliant products reach the market.
