A high resolution x-ray<br />
increases food accuracy<br />
Yamato Scale Dataweigh<br />
has unveiled its<br />
most advanced x-ray<br />
inspection machine which<br />
is designed to be flexible<br />
across all formats.<br />
This COP compliant unit<br />
can be programmed<br />
with unique<br />
algorithms that<br />
can accommodate<br />
special and one-off<br />
applications, and its<br />
high-speed and wideformat<br />
widths suit any<br />
production environment.<br />
Additionally, the YX20 can<br />
be fitted as standard with<br />
either a 0.8 mm pixel diode or<br />
a 0.4 mm pixel diode, providing<br />
a much higher resolution to<br />
produce clearer images.<br />
This, in turn, increases<br />
accuracy in the identification<br />
and removal of contaminated<br />
items, helping food producers<br />
avoid expensive, reputationdamaging<br />
product recalls<br />
while also reducing waste<br />
and increasing productivity.<br />
It can also be fully integrated<br />
with a checkweigher, enabling<br />
manufacturers to gain<br />

The YX20 x-ray inspection machine<br />
is a flexible option across formats<br />
complete COP compliance.<br />
Integrating the YX20 with<br />
a Yamato Stats option will<br />
provide a fully automated data<br />
collection system, running<br />
from a server or PC, ensuring<br />
manufacturers have a complete<br />
inspection and data collection<br />
package. This allows food<br />
processing firms to have<br />
valuable control and insight<br />
into the cause of any problem<br />
so that it can be prevented<br />
for future production.<br />
“As well as being one of<br />
the most advanced inspection<br />
and detection<br />
machines on<br />
the market,<br />
the YX20<br />
has a low<br />
total cost of<br />
ownership,”<br />
says Mark<br />
James,<br />
Yamato Scale<br />
Dataweigh’s global<br />
inspection general<br />
manager. To reduce the<br />
total cost of ownership,<br />
the YX20 is fitted with a<br />
sealed-for-life, maintenancefree<br />
x-ray generator unit,<br />
which encases the x-ray tube<br />
and high voltage electronics<br />
in an oil bath. This means<br />
the temperature remains<br />
constant, automatically<br />
monitored and temperature<br />
controlled.<br />

Spindle attachment<br />
can handle narrow,<br />
large diameter rolls<br />
Packline Materials Handling has<br />
designed its clamping vertical<br />
spindle in response to a customer<br />
requirement in the food industry<br />
to handle very narrow, large<br />
diameter rolls of PVC film that<br />
can telescope during handling.<br />
Designed for the meat<br />
processing industry, this bespoke<br />
handling solution lifts and<br />
transports the rolls from the<br />
pallet to the labelling machine.<br />
It incorporates a single clamping<br />
arm with nitrile rubber pads<br />
to ensure that the roll is held<br />
securely in position.<br />
The clamping vertical spindle<br />
attachment is suitable for very<br />
narrow rolls (120 mm) with<br />
large diameters (1250 mm)<br />
and is ideal for confined spaces.<br />
