industry innovations X-ray inspection system Safeline X34 x-ray inspection system verifies component presence of prescription and over-the counter products in small and medium-sized packages, eliminating the need for costly manual inspections. Features include an energy effi- cient generator that determines the appropriate power level to create the most optimal x-ray image and a 0.4-millimeter detector that enhances image resolution for precise detec- tion of small, hard-to-find contaminants. System comes equipped with automated product setup software and ContamPlus inspection software that enhances contamina- tion detection capabilities and reduces the false reject rate, increasing output and overall equipment effectiveness while decreasing total cost of ownership. When combined with the company's Integrity-Check tools, the inspection system can examine blister packs for broken or missing tablets. Options include ProdX advanced data management tool, which stores images of foreign body contamination and allows them to be viewed remotely.
