Loma Systems Sentry XR - XRay Machine

• Detecting foreign bodies such as metal, glass, stone, and dense plastics in packaged food products.
• Inspecting pharmaceutical products for missing tablets, broken components, or contaminants.
• Quality control for confectionery, ensuring correct fill levels and identifying structural defects.
• Checking for defects in non-food items like small industrial components or consumer goods.

Typical throughput

For this class of equipment, throughput can typically range from 20 to over 100 metres per minute, depending on product size and inspection requirements.

Power supply

Commonly found on units of this type is a 230V or 400V, 3-phase electrical supply.

Typical aperture size

Aperture sizes typically vary, accommodating products from small pouches to larger cartons, often up to 400mm in width and 200mm in height for general purpose units.

Conveyor height

Conveyor heights are typically adjustable to align with existing production lines, commonly between 800mm and 1000mm.

X-ray source

Units typically feature a low-power X-ray source, designed for safety and effective contaminant detection.

Operating environment
