X-RAY INSPECTION SYSTEMS

X-ray Inspection:Enhanced Food Safety For nearly 20 years, LOMA SYSTEMS® has been developing X-ray technologies for food and pharmaceutical inspection. With a wealth of experience gained from many installations around the world with producers, both large and small, we have introduced our fifth generation of X-ray Systems, the X5 Series. X-ray Inspection is fast becoming the preferred route for contaminant detection for factories who operate to strict retailer codes of practice and for those wishing to provide the ultimate protection for their brand. X-ray Inspection systems also offer a...

Safety Protecting the Consumer LOMA’s X5 X-ray series is designed to help food producers deliver the utmost safety to the consumer by providing enhanced contamination detection capabilities over conventional metal detectors, as well as ensuring the systems themselves do not increase the risk of contamination. Working with standards such as BRC, IFS, FSMA and retailer Codes of Practice (COP), LOMA’S X5 X-Ray Inspection systems can be configured with varying levels of specifications ranging from auto-rejection through to full retail compliance to cover all possibilities. Detecting Foreign...

LOMA’s X-ray systems are designed and build to meet strict legislative requirements governed by UK, EU and USA (FDA) regulations to ensure that the systems are safe to install and use. The X5 X-ray series feature radiation protection to ensure that emissions are kept below 1 µSv/hour during operation. By their very nature, X-ray systems used for food inspection are safe and emissions are significantly less than many naturally occurring radiation sources such as medical X-rays, Radon gas, Gamma decay in rocks, cosmic rays and even the Sun. The worlds average “background” rate of radiation is...

Durable LOMA’s X5 X-ray systems are developed using Loma’s Designed to Survive® philosophy making them some of the toughest and most durable systems on the market. Fabricated from brushed 304 stainless steel, the X5 systems are produced with sloped surfaces to minimize water collection spots during wash-down procedures. Hygienic and Robust Design The X5 systems are designed to be hygienic to prevent any kind of bacterial contamination of products being inspected. • All of the X5 X-ray systems can withstand a low pressure wash down, featuring ingress ratings of IP66. The X5 Pipeline system...

EASY TO CLEAN AND HYGIENIC

Flexible The X5 Series feature a host of features designed to optimize the system for a variety of different product applications, from simple homogenous density products, to loose-flowing, through to products packaged in foil or metallized film. As well as scanning for foreign bodies and contaminants, X5 X-ray systems can also check the integrity of the product being inspected. Inspection of a Wide Variety of Different Products The X5 X-ray Inspection Systems offer reliable detection for a wide range of contaminants and products. Detection of 1.5mm stainless steel swarf in whole chickens...

AAT Optimizes Detection for Each Product The unique Adaptive Array Technology (AAT) featured on a majority of the X5 models, allows the detector pitch to be optimized for a particular product application. It tailors resolution, depth and scaling to give the best detection performance, for hard or soft contaminants, and pack speed for any product requiring inspection. Algorithms Make Product Inspection Easy The X5 series includes up to 15 software algorithms for perfecting detection of different foreign bodies and contaminants making them especially good for detecting stainless steel...

Friendly Working with producers and retailers around the world, LOMA’s engineering teams developed the experience of the X5 X-ray systems to be as friendly as possible. This includes designing the user experience for operators, line supervisors and quality staff; understanding how best to maintain and clean the systems to support maintenance staff in maximizing uptime; and ultimately ensuring the X5 systems deliver the best cost of ownership. Designed for Users LOMA’s X5 X-ray systems are designed to be as simple and easy to use as a metal detector, whilst providing all the advanced...

Factory Friendly LOMA’s X5 X-ray systems include many features intended to make them friendlier to factories: • Space-saving: designed to maximize valuable space within a food factory, the X5C and X5 Spacesaver models occupy a line length of only 1 meter or 1.8 meters with an auto-rejection station. • To facilitate easier maintenance: ◦◦ Front and rear opening doors with spring lock for quick access and closure. ◦◦ Produced with a minimum quantity of rollers and mechanical parts necessary for reliable operation. ◦◦ Quick release belts which can be changed and replaced in less than 30...
