Description

The SPARC Apollo X-ray machine makes automated X-ray inspection simple and cost-saving. By removing the need for human intervention, you can gain a repeatable and consistent inspection process in a very small footprint. 

Flexible and reliable

The SPARC Apollo X-ray machine has been designed and constructed in accordance with the highest norms and provides both flexibility and precision. It is highly suited to inspecting sliced meat, cheese and ready meals. The standard machine is suitable for all package shapes up to 300 x 300 x 100 mm with a maximum speed of 200 packages per minute. Larger packages can be processed on request.

Anomalous or contaminated products are quickly removed from the product stream by a servo powered ejection system and collected in a closed container. The Apollo X-ray machine does not use compressed air, providing considerable savings on running costs compared with compressed air-based machines.
