Many food manufacturers are already benefiting from deploying x-ray inspection systems to carry out a wide range of quality control and compliance duties and these additional capabilities also should be factored into the equation when considering the cost of an x-ray inspection system. 

As part of its ongoing growth, FlexXray, the nation’s largest provider of X-ray inspection and recovery services for food companies, has added the role of president to its executive structure. Randy Jesberg, who brings 35 years of executive experience in sales, marketing, software engineering and analytics will fill the new position.

The newest advanced  Pack 430 PRO X-ray system scans mid-sized packages such as chips, crackers and cookies, and detects and automatically rejects recall-causing contaminants like glass shards, metal fragments, mineral stone, some plastic and rubber compounds.

Technology is not the end-all when it comes to safeguarding meat and poultry from foreign-object contamination.
