Inspection Systems LOMA X⁴ X-ray System

The LOMA X⁴ X-ray System from Inspection Systems is sensitive to both metal and nonmetallic contaminants such as glass, stone, calcified bone, high-density plastics and rubber.

The system is suitable for inspection of products that are transported loose and unpacked prior to packing and processing, such as nuts, grains, cereal, frozen fruit and vegetables, as well as formed products such as potato cakes and hamburgers.

To minimise product waste, a high-speed multiflap reject mechanism rejects portions by selecting on the the area of flow in which a contaminant has been detected. Top and side infeed chute options are available to suit a range of production layouts.

The system has a simple, easy-to-use, touch-screen interface; password-protected control provides flexibility of user access and control. The system is easy to access, allowing fast cleaning and belt removal.

An auto calibration system is built in and requires no programming. The system has a throughput in excess of 10 tonnes/h without loss of performance, according to the company.

Options available include reject confirmation, bin full sensing, remote diagnostics, lockable wheels and LomaEnet.
