Entry Level X-ray detection - IX-EN Series
Contact usEconomical X-ray technology for the food industry
Get started with an X-ray food inspection system
The IX-EN series offers the advanced X-ray detection capabilities you would expect from Ishida at an economical price, making it a great entry point for food producers. Moreover, it is the ideal solution to meet internal and external compliance standards.
The X-ray machines are easy to set up and integrate into your production line and are suitable for a wide range of products like chocolate bars, sliced cheese, bread, and cakes.
The entry-level X-ray range inspects food products faster and more precisely than metal detectors and identifies metal and non-metal contaminants.
Reliable detection levels
The IX-EN Series X-ray systems can detect stainless steel as small as 0.6-0.7mm - the typical diameter of lead in a pencil.
Detect more foreign bodies than a metal detector
Use the IX-EN X-ray Inspection System to reveal:
- Metal objects
- Glass
- Mineral stones
- Bones
- Rubber
- Ceramics
- High-density plastics

DownloadThe food industry benefits from variable voltage settings
Vary the voltage to detect lower-density foreign bodies. The lower the voltage, the higher the absorption difference. Reducing the voltage creates sharper product images, which enhances the detection of contaminants that X-ray machines at higher voltages could miss.
