Fruit and Vegetable X-ray Inspection

X-ray Inspection Solutions for Fresh, Frozen, Pickled, Canned , and Pureed Fruit & Vegetables.

Whether you are wanting to inspect heavy bulk flow produce such as potatoes, packaged frozen vegetables, or tinned fruit, our range of x-ray products offer a solution.

The G20 and G40 inspection systems cater to loose and packaged fruit and vegetable products. Fruit and vegetables packaged inside rigid containers made of glass, plastic, or metal can be inspected by the G30, G35, or G50, depending on size.

Our x-ray inspection systems can help you to detect contaminants and also improve product quality and safety as set out below (Fruit and Vegetable X-ray Applications).

Fruit & Vegetable X-ray Applications

Ensure product conformity and product completeness
Confirm accurate fill-levels ( e.g. this is useful for brine in jars of pickled vegetables)
Verify seals and caps are correct
Component verification (e.g. ensuring packaged salads contain sachets of dressing)
Measure product mass (e.g. accurate weight measurement of irregular items such as bags of potatoes)
Check seasoning is distributed evenly (e.g. pre-seasoned vegetable trays)
Identify foreign objects such as metal, bone, glass, certain plastics, and other items
