X-ray food inspection machines are essential for a range of industries that rely on the detection of harmful contaminant materials in foods. X-ray equipment is particularly important to food processing and packaging lines. Accuweigh has chosen to distribute the Applied Sorting Technologies brand as this locally manufactured product is very well known and highly regarded for quality and proven performance.

The AST x-ray inspection equipment offers a range of linear scanning x-ray systems which combine state-of-the-art technology with efficient, cost-effective contaminant detection. In addition to locating a variety of dense contaminants including metal, glass, stone and some plastics, the progression of x-ray technology has led to a range of new applications including non-contact inspection, fill checking, product counting and shape inspection.

Accuweigh has performed many x-ray food inspection system installations across Australia.
