X-ray Technology for Bone Detection
What factors should you consider when selecting x-ray inspection technology? Learn the differences between single and dual energy technologies and the added benefit of PXT™ for bone detection.
MAXIMIZER RMI helps poultry processors improve yield, reduce costly false rejects, and strengthen product quality with advanced raw material inspection technology. Engineered for high-speed production environments, the system combines precise bone and metal detection, automated reject management, and a compact footprint that increases throughput, reduces downtime, and maximizes ROI.
Our PXT™ dual energy photon-counting technology, combined with SimulTask™ PRO image analysis software, delivers high-resolution images and real-time analysis in just one-tenth of a second, setting a new standard in detecting bones and contaminants. Eagle Product Inspection focuses on developing advanced x-ray analysis solutions for superior product inspection.
Automate your bone detection in poultry with Eagle’s RMI 400 and our radically enhanced photon-counting PXT™ detector which can consistently locate rib, fan and wish bone in a multitude of poultry applications and at high line speeds for unmatched bone detection.
See how Eagle’s RMI 400 with the radically enhanced PXT™ detector locates small fishbone in frozen fish fillets, down to 0.5 mm, with accuracy, precision and reliable results.
Eagle’s FA and red meat x-ray systems inspect 100% of meat products and can identify the presence or absence of bone for bone-in or boneless products – automating quality assurance and maximizing uptime.

X-ray bone detection in food inspection uses advanced imaging and detector technology to identify bone fragments in meat, poultry, and seafood. It helps aid product safety, improve quality control, and reduce the risk of contamination before products reach consumers. Learn about advanced imaging software. >>>
X-ray bone detection works by scanning food products with single or dual-energy x-ray systems that differentiate materials based on density. Advanced technologies like photon-counting detectors can locate small bone fragments within dense busy images with high accuracy and at high line speeds. Explore advanced detecor technology. >>>
X-ray bone detection systems powered with photon-counting detectors can find bones as small as 0.5 mm in fish, down to 1 mm in poultry, and 3 mm in red meat, depending on the product type, density, and inspection conditions. See advanced x-ray machines. >>>
X-ray systems are better than traditional detectors for bone detection because they detect differences in density between product and contaminants. Allowing the system to identify bone fragments, contaminants, and other quality defects that traditional detectors cannot. View all quality capabilities. >>>
