X-RAY FOOD SAFETY

摘要

Safety issues around radiation and dealing with potentially high-voltage components means that many food manufacturers avoid purchasing x-ray inspection systems for food production lines. One of the key issues is factory staff are afraid of what they cannot see.To help eliminate this fear factor, Sparc Systems designed a protective high-density acrylic window on its Apollo x-ray system. The same concept is also deployed in the company's Theia x-ray and checkweigher combination system. With the radiography beams fully contained, staff can work alongside the machines and see up to 200 p.p.m. travelling through the system, without feeling like they are putting personal safety at risk.
