Meat, Poultry & Seafood Processing

HIDDEN RISKS IN FOOD SAFETY

Meat, poultry and seafood processing lines face constant risks of foreign object contamination, including bone fragments, metal shavings, shell pieces and broken processing tools. These contaminants are often embedded deep within the product, making detection highly challenging for traditional inspection technologies. Vista Vision’s X-ray inspection system offers high-precision detection even for dense or irregularly shaped items, ensuring product safety, regulatory compliance and brand protection. Our solution integrates seamlessly into modern high-speed food production lines.

What types of contaminants may occur?
  • Bone fragments (soft & hard bone)
  • Stainless steel or iron shavings from cutting tools
  • Shell pieces in seafood
  • Stones from raw material
  • Dense plastic or hard rubber from equipment wear

ENSURING FOOD SAFETY AND QUALITY WITH X-RAY INSPECTION

Why X-ray Is Essential for Meat & Seafood
  • Detects both metal and non-metal contaminants
  • Works for frozen, chilled or fresh products
  • No false alarms caused by high salt content or product density
  • Detects contaminants inside dense muscle tissue where metal detectors fail
Supported Packaging Types
  • Vacuum-sealed bags
  • Frozen blocks
  • MAP / tray packs
  • Foil packaging
  • Bulk packaging
Vista Vision X-ray Advantages
  • High-penetration imaging for dense proteins
  • Stable detection under temperature variation
  • Custom conveyor widths (match WT8051 models)
  • Hygienic stainless steel construction (IP66 optional)
  • Internal rejector system for precise removal

APPLICATION EXAMPLES

  • Poultry Bone Detection: Detecting calcified wishbones or rib fragments remaining in boneless chicken breast fillets before they are packaged for retail.
  • Frozen Seafood Blocks: Inspecting solid blocks of frozen shrimp to identify hidden fish hooks, stones, or shell fragments that cannot be seen from the surface.
  • Sausage & Processed Meat: Identifying broken metal tips from processing blades or metal clips inside chub-packaged sausages or ground meat logs.
