Bulk Product X-Ray Sorting
Foreign material is removed in-line, before anything is packed: bulk product flowing on a wide belt is scanned continuously, and on detection only the defective zone is diverted out by an air jet or flap. Minimum product loss, maximum tonnage.

Advantages
Why This Type?
Zoned Rejection — Minimum Product Loss
Only the defective strip of product is ejected, not a whole pack; product loss is many times lower than with end-of-line systems.
Machine Protection
Installed upstream of crushers, mills, and slicers, the X-ray keeps stone and metal from reaching your expensive equipment.
High Tonnage
With a 600 mm belt width, tons of product per hour are scanned without slowing the line.
Early in the Line, Less Risk
Sorting at the point closest to the contamination source: the risk is resolved before suspect product spreads through inventory and process.
