X-Ray Solutions

Protecting Your Customers & Your Brand

Since 1999, SF has been the preferred partner of Ishida, industry leader with the IX Series, top-of-the-range X-ray inspection systems that can detect foreign bodies of the lowest densities.

These X-ray inspection systems greatly out-perform more conventional models on the market.

Ishida X-ray inspection can be used at any stage in your production line to check everything from bulk product to end-of-line inspection of boxed, bagged or trayed items.

The X-ray identifies with the greatest accuracy and reliability when foreign bodies are contaminating your product, thus protecting your brand and reassuring your customers.

Highly sensitive foreign body detection

 

GA (Genetic Algorithm) is a patented technique which allows you to accomplish a very high detection sensitivity. The use of GA allows the user to optimise the X-ray machine for their own unique product characteristics. Each GA can be tuned to focus on a specific foreign body that poses an inherent risk to the product. As such, every x-ray machine can be uniquely and easily optimised to meet your specific challenges.
