Ishida Europe has extended itsrange of x-ray inspection systems with the launch of two models specificallydesigned for larger size products and pack formats.The new IX-EN-5592 and IX-GN-5523can detect a wide range of foreign bodies in large and heavy products, bothpacked and unpacked, such as transit cases and blocks of cheese. Their high-capacity inspection chambers –550mm wide and 270mm in height – are perfectly suited to the EURO standard600mm x 400mm cases and crates and are able to handle products with weights upto 25kg.
Both models incorporate Ishida’spatented GA (Genetic Algorithm) technology that allows users to optimise theirx-ray machine for their own unique product characteristics. Each GA can be tuned to focus on a particularforeign body that could pose a risk during production, greatly improvingsensitivity and detection rates.
The IX-EN-5592 provides the ideal entry-level x-ray inspection solution, ensuring accurate and reliable inspection for uniform products. The IX-GN-5523 offers even greater levels of versatility in its inspection of packed and unpacked products and features an integrated air conditioning unit. Set-up and operation of both machines are easy via their user-friendly touch screen controls, and their ergonomic design and stainless steel construction make the models easy to clean.
In addition, the overall design of the machines and their small footprint enables them to be easily integrated wherever they are required on the production line.
