Application X-Ray Detection
A unique solution which inspects individually wrapped food or pharmaceutical products at high line speeds. The X34C combines a short total footprint with an optimised focal distance to enhance detection of non-conforming products and reducing waste
Advanced Contaminant Detection for Food & PharmaThe X34C Series provides high-precision detection of physical contaminants using an 80 kV, 3 mA X-ray generator. Its hygienic stainless steel construction and IP65 rating make it ideal for environments requiring rigorous washdown, ensuring safety and compliance for food and pharmaceutical operations.
Seamless Integration & Intelligent OperationWith a touchscreen HMI, advanced product learning algorithms, and multi-level password access, the X34C Series simplifies operation while safeguarding security. Automated reject handling and robust statistical reporting streamline workflow and enable rapid quality control interventions.
Designed for Demanding Production EnvironmentsAccommodating up to 400 packs per minute, the X34C system excels in high-throughput lines. Its compact configuration, noise levels below 70 dB(A), and compatibility with dust and moisture-controlled indoor settings enhance production efficiency and operator comfort.
FAQ's of Mettler Toledo X34C Series, System:
Q: How does the X34C Series inspection process work?
A: The X34C Series uses an advanced X-ray generator to scan products as they travel along a conveyor. Its software automatically analyzes images to detect contaminants at sub-millimeter levels, and any non-conforming items are ejected via an integrated automatic reject system with a dedicated bin.
Q: What products can be inspected with the X34C Series?
A: This system is designed for a diverse range of packaged goods, making it suitable for food, pharmaceutical, and packaging industries. It accommodates products up to 110 mm in height within an inspection width of 300 mm.
Q: When is it necessary to use X-ray inspection instead of metal detection?
A: X-ray inspection is recommended when there is a risk of contaminants such as glass, stones, dense plastics, or bone fragments-materials that traditional metal detectors might miss. The X34C Series offers superior detection accuracy for these challenging foreign bodies.
Q: Where should the X34C Series be installed for optimal performance?
A: The system is designed for indoor, dust and moisture-controlled environments. Its IP65 rating ensures it withstands washdown cleaning, making it ideal for hygiene-sensitive production areas in food and pharmaceutical facilities.
Q: What are the benefits of the advanced software features?
A: The X34C's advanced software provides automated product learning to optimize detection parameters, statistical data logging for quality assurance, and detailed reporting to support audits and continuous process improvement.
Q: How does the automatic reject mechanism work?
A: When the X34C detects a contaminated or non-conforming product, it activates its integrated automatic reject system, diverting the affected item into a secure bin. This minimizes the risk of contaminant escape and ensures product safety.
Q: What makes the X34C Series suitable for high-speed production lines?
A: With conveyor speeds of up to 70 m/min and a capacity of up to 400 packs per minute, the X34C's compact, fully automated design ensures accurate and efficient inspection while maintaining high throughput in demanding production environments.
