PRODUCT INSPECTION SOLUTIONS FOR MEAT, POULTRY & SEAFOOD INDUSTRIES

PRODUCT INSPECTION SOLUTIONS:

When you need quality, we handle the details.

From the smallest feature to the big picture, Mettler Toledo solutions are designed to suit the widest range of meat, poultry and seafood applications and solve many of the most frustrating product inspection challenges.

SOLVE THE PROBLEM OF HIGH FALSE REJECT RATES DURING METAL DETECTION

For metal detectors, certain applications are more challenging than others. For example, the moisture content in meat, poultry and seafood products can lead to the generation of signals that mimic the presence of metal – a phenomenon known as the ‘product effect’.
These signals typically result in
high false reject rates because the alternative is to reduce the detection sensitivity, which runs a higher
risk of contaminants making it to the consumer. Multi-Simultaneous Frequency technology and Product Signal Suppression can now be combined to overcome this problem.

By minimising the product signal, Profile Advantage metal detectors are able to inspect products at full sensitivity. The outcome is that much smaller contaminants are found without all of the time and waste associated with rejecting the good product.

EASIER TO CLEAN X-RAY SYSTEMS IMPROVE PRODUCTIVITY

Opportunities to improve processes should be taken wherever and whenever possible, including when equipment is offline.

By focusing on quality in every design detail, our new generation of x-ray inspection systems
have a number of features that significantly reduce the time and effort required for maintenance and cleaning.
For example, with all parts including the air conditioner built to IP69 standard, high pressure washdowns and sanitation processes are quicker and easier with no risk of water ingress.
Sloped surfaces and curved edges prevent stagnant water and other debris from collecting, reducing the risk of bacteria traps.
In addition, x-ray inspection systems used to inspect meat and poultry products in process pipelines are designed with aseptic manifolds that are easily removed without tools, making the deep cleaning of machine parts quicker than ever.

YOUR REQUIREMENTS, OUR PROBLEM

Your production line is unique and presents its own challenges. No matter how good a piece of equipment is, if it can’t be adapted to work around your processes, then it will never deliver on its potential.
Whether your problems relate to limited production space, challenging working environments, specific product handling requirements, connectivity or any number of other issues, finding the best checkweighing solution tailored to your needs is vital for maintaining quality, compliance and productivity.

PRODUCT INSPECTION SOLUTIONS FOR DATES INDUSTRY

Food safety is more important than ever. Mass communication and social media spread the news of incidents and recall at lightning speed. Consumers are becoming more educated and more concerned the more they read and hear about food matters. They are often following the trail of the food that will reach their table back to the farm.

The closer you get to the farm, the closer you get too many foreign objects. Most raw foods and ingredients originate in a natural environment – a field, an orchard, a farm, etc. As the food is harvested, foreign objects such as stones or glass can end up co-mingled and transported into the processing plant.

Mettler Toledo equipment provides outstanding physical contamination detection and quality control in bulk-flow (loose) food products prior to packaging.
