Mettler-Toledo Product Inspection recently released the new X52 Dual Energy X-ray inspection system, completing its X2 Series, which is designed to meet the demands of challenging applications in packaged products at an affordable price point.

The X52’s proprietary software provides increased adaptability by seamlessly transitioning between single-energy, dual-energy, or both modes, optimizing the performance of the system depending on the application. In single-energy mode, the X52 identifies a wide range of contaminants including glass, metal, mineral stone, calcified bone, dense plastic, and rubber compounds based on their material composition, offering thorough inspection for product safety and quality. Dual-energy mode further enhances accuracy by analyzing materials' densities, providing an advanced level of detection.

The system simultaneously detects foreign body contaminants while completing a broad range of quality assurance checks. Additionally, the X52 significantly reduces false rejects, minimizing unnecessary production halts and disruptions.

The X52 single- and dual-energy X-ray system is designed to future-proof manufacturing operations by accommodating evolving product lines and applications. Equipped with proprietary Advanced Material Discrimination (AMD) and ContamPlus™ software, the X52 offers increased sensitivity. The AMD dual energy software enhances the system's ability to differentiate between materials, offering precise contaminant detection in challenging scenarios, such as products that are overlapping or vary in thickness.

Finally, the HiGain+ DE detector by Mettler-Toledo provides exceptional sensitivity and resolution, enhancing material analysis with accuracy. This technology offers thorough inspection without compromising efficiency, meeting the evolving needs of manufacturers across industries.
