ZONESUN ZS-MD60 Automatic X-Ray Food Inspection System with Rejection Device

Overview

The ZONESUN ZS-MD60 is a high-precision industrial X-ray inspection system designed for online detection and automatic rejection of foreign object contaminants in packaged products. Using an 80 kV X-ray source (max 210 W) and advanced image analysis running on a Linux-based operating system, it reliably detects metal (ball ≥0.3 mm, wire ≥0.2×2 mm), glass, ceramic, stone, and dense contaminants in composite, foil, and multi-layer packaging that defeats conventional metal detectors. With a 500×300 mm inspection tunnel, up to 20 kg product capacity, conveyor speeds of 5–60 m/min, and a high-efficiency pneumatic automatic rejection device, the ZS-MD60 ensures food safety and quality control on high-speed production lines. The full mirror 304 stainless steel body and IP66-rated conveyor meet food-grade hygiene and washdown requirements.

Key Features

• 🔍 80 kV X-Ray — Detects Metal, Glass, Ceramic & Stone
  The 80 kV X-ray source penetrates composite, foil, and multi-layer packaging to detect metal balls ≥0.3 mm, wires ≥0.2×2 mm, and glass/ceramic balls ≥1.0 mm — catching contaminants that conventional metal detectors cannot identify in metallized or foil packaging.

• ⚡ 5–60 m/min High-Speed Inline Inspection
  Adjustable conveyor speed from 5 to 60 m/min enables integration into high-speed production lines without creating a throughput bottleneck, supporting continuous inspection at full line speed.

• 📦 500×300 mm Large Inspection Tunnel — Up to 20 kg
  The wide 500 mm × 300 mm tunnel accommodates large-format packaged products up to 20 kg, covering the full range of retail, food service, and industrial packaging formats from small pouches to bulk cartons.

• 🤖 Automatic Pneumatic Rejection Device
  Contaminated products are automatically diverted by a high-speed pneumatic rejection mechanism immediately after detection — removing non-conforming products from the line without stopping production or requiring manual intervention.

• 🧼 IP66 Conveyor — Full Washdown Ready
  The IP66-rated conveyor belt system withstands high-pressure water washdown cleaning, meeting food production hygiene requirements for wet processing environments and daily sanitation protocols.

• 🛡️ Full Mirror 304 Stainless Steel Body
  All external surfaces are fabricated from mirror-finish 304 stainless steel, providing corrosion resistance, easy cleaning, and compliance with food-grade material standards for GMP and HACCP production environments.

• 💻 Linux-Based Advanced Image Analysis
  The Linux operating system (Kernel 4.10) runs advanced X-ray image processing algorithms that distinguish contaminants from product density variations, reducing false rejection rates while maintaining high detection sensitivity.

• 🌡️ Wide Operating Range — 0–45°C, 30–85% RH
  Designed for operation across a wide ambient temperature and humidity range, enabling deployment in chilled, ambient, and warm production environments without performance degradation.

Applications

• 🍞 Packaged Food — Snacks, Baked Goods & Dry Foods
  Inline X-ray inspection of chips, crackers, cookies, cereals, and dried food products in foil, composite, and multi-layer packaging for metal, glass, and ceramic contaminant detection before retail distribution.
  

• 🥫 Dairy & Cheese Products
  Foreign object inspection of packaged cheese, butter, and dairy products in foil and composite packaging where conventional metal detectors are ineffective due to product conductivity and packaging material.

• 🍫 Confectionery & Chocolate
  X-ray inspection of chocolate bars, candy, and confectionery products in foil and metallized film packaging for metal, glass, and stone contaminants that cannot be detected by standard metal detection systems.

• 🧴 Industrial & Non-Food Products
  X-ray foreign object detection for packaged industrial components, rubber products, plastics, and consumer goods requiring contaminant inspection in composite or opaque packaging where visual inspection is not possible.
