Photon Counting Dual Energy X-ray Machine
With the latest X-ray inspection technology, this X-ray system’s highly sensitive sensor detects low-density foreign objects and contaminants. Enhanced imaging through advanced processing technology differentiates between the product and minute contaminants with pin-point accuracy, reducing inaccurate identification.
Photon counting detectors combined with Ishida-patented Genetic Algorithm (GA) imaging means you can quickly inspect your food products for contaminants - even those with low density – while enjoying superior detecting sensitivity.
Impressive X-ray detection levels
In tests, our IX-PD photon counting technology demonstrated almost 100% bone identification rates: an increase from 40% to 100% compared to traditional X-ray technologies for identifying bones in chicken breasts.
Foreign body and contaminant detection for the food industry
Use our X-ray inspection for:
• Enhanced detection of metal objects
• Glass
• Mineral stone
• Bones – including those with a low-density
• High-density plastics
• Rubber
• Ceramics
• Stainless steel
Peace of mind
Confidence for audits
Our photon counting X-ray inspection system complies with the quality-control standards the food industry expects, such as:
- Retailers’ codes of practice
- The British Retail Consortium (BRC)
- International Featured Standards (IFS)
X-ray food inspection for peace of mind
Transform your inspection process to improve product quality and food safety by efficiently identifying foreign bodies.

The Ishida Advantage
Accurate
Improved detection sensitivity, even in complex and overlapping products. For example, sealing rubbers and low-density foreign objects such as bones
Reliable
Detects foreign bodies in once hard-to-inspect overlapping and uneven products without compromise
Advanced
Cutting-edge imaging technology tells the difference between food and foreign body densities, reducing false positive detection
Efficient
Mitigates oversights in visual inspections
Thorough
Detects even minute foreign objects such as stainless steel wires as small as 0.2mm in diameter
Cost-effective X-ray packages
Ask about our competitive X-ray purchase packages. We also offer low-cost service packages, including spares, maintenance, and repairs. Representing 3% of the TCO, you can spread the support costs over five years.
DownloadEfficient dual energy technology
Our solution contains a superior direct conversion and energy analysis sensor combined with high-resolution image processing technology. The highest sensitivity improves detection by identifying low-density and minute foreign objects and contaminants. Accurately identifying foreign objects and not mistaking them for products reduces the rate of inaccurate detection.
