Quality and hygiene play an important role in food safety. Sesotec is developing a new Raycon X-ray system in hygienic design that fulfils these requirements. The design minimises set-up and cleaning time and the system does not require radiation protection curtains.
Safety, quality and hygiene are top priorities in the food industry. Hygienic design generates added value for both production-related and economic reasons: set-up and cleaning times are minimised, the Productivity of the systems is increased and reputational damage caused by the recall of contaminated products are avoided. In order to make users in the food industry aware of the Foreign body detection for unpackaged products to be able to offer a suitable X-ray system, has Sesotec Hygienic design principles were applied in the development of the Raycon D+ HX LW Hygienic.
The Raycon D+ HX LW Hygienic does not require any radiation protection curtains. This means that the Risk of cross-contamination during or after cleaning eliminated. Secondly, operating costs are reduced because time-consuming and cost-intensive cleaning and maintenance work is simplified. The materials of all components (monitor, key switch, signalling light, drum motor, etc.) are designed for the high protection class IP69. The bevelled surfaces allow water to run off automatically. The safety symbols, as well as the type plate, are stained onto the appliance as pictograms and thus replace stickers. The appliance comes with a passive cooling has been developedwhich enables use in cool environments without a filter fan or air conditioning unit and thus guarantees the high protection class IP69.
Sesotec X-ray systems have been specially developed for use in the food industry and detect foreign bodies such as metals, glass, ceramics, stones, raw bones, PVC and many other product defects. Thanks to this inspection, the Conformity with all important food industry guidelines such as IFS, BRC or FSSC 22000 and reliable protection against complaints and recalls can be ensured.
