Fanchi-tech FA-XIS6040 X-Ray Inspection System: Advanced Contaminant Detection for Mid-to-Large Packaged Food Products

---

Hygienic, Robust Design for Demanding Food Production Environments

• Food-Grade 304 Stainless Steel Construction: A fully crevice-free, smooth-finish frame prevents food residue buildup and supports daily wet cleaning, meeting GMP, HACCP, and BRC hygiene standards. The stainless steel body is resistant to corrosion from cleaning agents and food byproducts, ensuring long-term reliability.
• High-Visibility Touchscreen Interface: The system features a large, high-resolution industrial touchscreen with an intuitive, multi-language interface. Operators can quickly set up product-specific inspection parameters, monitor line performance, and access real-time data logs, minimizing training time and reducing human error.
• Sanitary Conveyor System: The integrated white PU conveyor belt is food-safe, oil-resistant, and easy to remove for deep cleaning. The blue protective curtains at the infeed/outfeed prevent radiation leakage while maintaining a hygienic environment, complying with international radiation safety standards.
• Mobile, Adjustable Frame: Equipped with heavy-duty swivel casters with locks and adjustable leveling feet, the FA-XIS6040 can be easily repositioned between production lines or moved for cleaning. This flexibility makes it ideal for multi-line operations or facilities with limited space.

Advanced Imaging Technology for Unmatched Detection Precision

• Comprehensive Contaminant Detection: Identifies a wide range of foreign bodies, including ferrous/non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, glass, ceramic, stone, hard plastic, rubber, and bone fragments—regardless of packaging material, such as aluminum foil, metallized film, or multi-layered cartons.
• High-Resolution Imaging & Intelligent Noise Filtering: Advanced algorithms analyze product density variations to distinguish between genuine contaminants and natural product signals, significantly reducing false rejects and minimizing unnecessary product waste. The system can detect contaminants as small as 0.3mm, depending on product density.
• Adaptive Sensitivity Calibration: Automatically adjusts detection parameters based on product characteristics (e.g., moisture content, density, and size), ensuring consistent performance across diverse SKUs, from light snacks to dense frozen meals.
• High-Speed Line Compatibility: Optimized for continuous production, the FA-XIS6040 maintains high detection accuracy even at line speeds up to 60 meters per minute, ensuring production flow remains uninterrupted.

Versatile Applications Across the Food Industry

• Packaged snacks, confectionery, and baked goods (large family packs, bulk cookies, and cake mixes)
• Frozen prepared meals, ready-to-cook dishes, and refrigerated convenience foods
• Meat, poultry, seafood, and processed protein products (bulk cuts, marinated packs, and sausage links)
• Dairy products (cheese blocks, yogurt cups, and spreadable dairy tubs)
• Pet food and animal feed (large kibble bags and wet food cans)
• Canned, jarred, and bottled products with medium-to-large packaging formats

Real-World Impact: A European Prepared Meals Producer’s Success Story

Customer Background

Challenge

1. Non-Metallic Contaminant Risks: Its existing metal detectors could not detect glass fragments, plastic shards, or bone chips in frozen meals, exposing the brand to recall risks.
2. Foil Packaging Interference: High false reject rates (up to 8%) caused by aluminum foil packaging led to significant product waste, costing the company over €150,000 annually in discarded meals.

Solution

Results

• Zero Contamination Incidents: Since installation, EuroMeals has not experienced a single foreign body-related recall, protecting its brand reputation and maintaining customer trust.
• 92% Reduction in False Rejects: False reject rates dropped from 8% to below 0.6%, eliminating the need to discard thousands of high-quality meals monthly and saving over €138,000 annually in waste costs.
• 100% Retailer Compliance: The system’s built-in data logging capabilities helped EuroMeals pass all supplier audits, securing new contracts with two major European supermarket chains.
• 22% Increase in Line Efficiency: The detector’s high-speed performance reduced production downtime, allowing the plant to meet growing order volumes without expanding its workforce.
