X-ray Inspection in Metalized Packaging
The Challenges
Tuna packaging in metalized pouches makes it easier for consumers but manufacturers must overcome numerous quality issues before final distribution:
- Identifying metal and other foreign body contaminants
- Provide accurate weight of individual pouches
The Solution
Eagle Product Inspection advances the x-ray inspection of tuna fish. The Eagle™ Pack 320 PRO with SimulTask™ PRO imaging software can perform multiple quality control checks simultaneously and at high line speeds. This superior x-ray system easily locates contaminants such as glass, stone or calcified bone and, because x-ray technology can permeate metalized packaging, identifying metal contaminants is not an issue compared with other product inspection methods. In addition, the multi-functional machine can verify individual pouch weight reducing product giveaway.
