Ishida has equipped its X-ray inspection systems with a multitude of new functions. It is possible to detect foreign bodies of low and high density in packaged products as well as in bulk goods. Other general features are the hygienic design with easy-to-clean surfaces and the easy-to-remove waste bin. The company offers systems from entry-level to premium class. The latter includes the IX-GN-4044 X-ray inspection system, which due to its versatility can be used for practically any application. The new X-ray inspection system IX-GN-5523 (image) was specially developed for XXL products and can inspect entire containers or large individual pieces weighing up to 30 kg. All X-ray inspection systems use the patented Ishida technique “Genetic Algorithm” for constant sensitization to specific foreign bodies.
