X-ray inspection system SensorX

automaticqualityfor defect detection

Overview
SensorX Poultry is an X-ray inspection system developed for poultry processing lines. It uses dual-energy X-ray imaging, advanced image‑analysis algorithms and automatic recalibration to detect bones and hard contaminants (metal, stone, glass) from 2 mm with proven reliability at high line speeds.

Key benefits

• 99% detection of bone and hard contaminants ≥ 2 mm
• Low false-positive rate for reduced product loss
• Consistent performance at high production speeds
• Improves product safety and reduces recall risk

Automatic adjustment and operation
Adaptive bone detection automatically adjusts sensitivity by piece thickness, removing the need for frequent manual program changes. Automatic recalibration and advanced image analysis simplify setup and reduce operator error.

Fit for purpose – designed for poultry
SensorX Poultry is engineered for seamless integration into poultry lines to maintain product flow and processing efficiency. Typical practical features include:

• Fast cold start: 5–10 minutes
• Integrated rework and logistics handling
• Two- and three-lane configurations available
• High-speed, accurate inline inspection

Software
AXIN solutions connect machines, processes and data to provide process insight and enable connected services. Software options for SensorX Poultry include AXIN SensorX, AXIN SmartSort and AXIN Machine Solutions for KPI monitoring, traceability and operational efficiency.

Accessories

• Infeed monitoring: singulation and orientation tracking, with traffic-light alerts to identify overlaps or folded fillets in real time

Service & support
Service agreements (for example ProCare) offer preventive and predictive maintenance, global local support and tailored plans to maximise uptime and equipment lifetime.

Customer feedback
