New viewing windows reassures x-ray workers

摘要

At interpack, Sparc Systems will unveil its unique rationale for designing viewing windows on its high-spec food x-ray range and how the removal of stainless steel doors reassures processing operatives. Safety issues around radiation and dealing with potentially highvoltage components means that many manufacturers steer clear of x-ray inspection systems because operatives fear what they cannot see. To help eliminate this fear factor, Sparc Systems has designed a protective highdensity acrylic window on its Apollo (x-ray) and Theia (x-ray and checkweigher combination) systems. The result: operatives can literally see up to 200 packs per minute travelling through the system without compromising their personal safety as the x-ray beams are fully contained.
