I was fortunate enough to attend PACK EXPO Las Vegas last month to see many of these machines that are new to market. From combination X-ray and checkweigher systems, to metal detectors and vision systems, the takeaway was flexibility and high speed action.

Mettler Toledo developed the X36 Series of X-ray inspection systems to enable manufacturers of food and pharmaceutical products to inspect products for contamination at high production speeds (up to 300 products per minute) on both single and multi-line operations, while reducing the energy requirements for doing so. 

Eagle Product Inspection has launched a system designed specifically for the poultry industry – the features and benefits incorporated in the design of the RMI 400 cannot fail to make waves where poultry production is concerned.
