X-ray inspection machine NextGuard C330

packaging linefor the packaging industrybelt conveyor

Overview
Add leading x-ray inspection technology to flexible checkweighing solutions to minimize space and integrate operation. The NextGuard is ideal for finding dense or sharp objects in a wide variety of products as well as detecting errors like over/under fill or missing, misplaced, cracked, or incorrectly formed products. The Versa checkweigher has proprietary software with advanced automatic-zero algorithms to ensure accuracy standards are maintained over time, regardless of environment, and is engineered for ease of maintenance.

Features and benefits

• Single point of operation for personnel
  • The x-ray inspection combined with the checkweigher enables both systems to be monitored by the employee on the production floor without needing to move between two systems.
  • Reduces safety risk to the operator as the reject systems of both the x-ray system and checkweigher system are located next to each other.
• Single point for maintenance
  • Set-up and calibration of the x-ray and checkweigher systems can be done together at the same time.
• Space saving
  • Combination system can save from 200 cm to 1,000 cm in packaging line length versus separate systems.
• Budget saving
  • Shared conveyor belt for x-ray and checkweigher eliminates need for an extra conveyor, reducing hardware cost.
• Single point for quality control
  • Rejection of out-of-range weight and contaminated products are side by side for easy removal.
  • Each system has its own HMI control screen and both are visible from a single point allowing simultaneous review of real time data.
  • X-ray belt can help pull pitch of products, regulating product presentation onto the checkweigher.
