The new system has been designed to detect metal, glass, dense plastics and other foreign objects in vertically oriented containers such as metal cans, plastic bottles, cartons and stand-up pouches.
The Xpert S400 is engineered for line speeds of up to 500 packages per minute and features an adjustable 400mm high X-ray source/detector, which is available in either 0.8mm or 0.4mm resolution.
With a compact length, Thermo Fisher Scientific’s new system also enables placement into tight production spaces, and its suite of algorithms is programmed to find small contaminants in complex images with few, if any, false rejects.
