Sartorius launches Dyxim X-ray inspection systems

A Sartorius Mechatronics product story
Edited by the Manufacturingtalk editorial team Mar 24, 2009

Sartorius has launched Dyxim X-ray inspection systems designed to protect final products from contaminants and, consequently, consumers against adverse health effects.

X-ray inspection systems are playing an increasingly significant role in quality assurance in the production of food, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.

The Dyxim series enables users to check packed and unpacked products for the presence of various contaminants such as glass, metal, rock, bones or other particles within production processes and to eliminate contaminated products reliably.

The Dyxim range is available in three versions.

The Dyxim S series has an X-ray sensor and is for simple detection tasks.

The Dyxim D series features two X-ray sensors with a resolution of 0.4-0.8 mm, which are mounted at an angle of 90 degrees to one another.

The double scanner system detects contaminants located directly below the lid or on the walls of a container just as easily as thin fragments of glass inside a glass container.

Thanks to the stainless steel housing and the IP65 protection, the Dyxim series is easy to clean.

The Dyxim FB series, a conveyor system, can automatically check products such as snacks, salads, cereals and dried foods in bags as well as pharmaceutical products, and detect and eliminate contaminants such as metal, glass, rocks, bone, ceramic and certain plastics (PVC).

The device can also be used to detect missing or broken products and/or changes in shape, volume or weight.

In addition to checking common types of packing, it is also easy to check metallicised bags, metal cans, bag-in-box packing and jars.

Sartorius uses its global expert network to market, install and maintain the X-ray inspection systems from the Dyxim series produced by the technology and software provider Dylog.

In order to offer the optimum solution for each particular type of application, various configurations are possible, depending on the individual customer requirements and product-specific properties.
