Case Study: X-ray Inspection for Aluminum Foil Packaged Products

Ensuring product safety under aluminum foil packaging has always been a challenge for many food manufacturers. Traditional metal detectors cannot penetrate aluminum foil, making it difficult to detect metal fragments or other foreign bodies inside sealed packages. Recently, Guangdong Shan’an Technology successfully completed an inspection test using our X-ray Inspection System for a customer’s aluminum-foil packaged food products. The results demonstrated clear advantages in accuracy, stability, and adaptability. Background The customer produces snack items sealed in aluminum foil film. Due to the packaging material, their existing metal detector could not identify contaminants such as stainless steel, iron, or non-metallic foreign bodies. To ensure production safety, they required a detection solution that works regardless of packaging type. Inspection Process During the test, samples were placed directly onto the conveyor without any special preparation. The Shan’an X-ray system automatically analyzed internal structures of each package and detected multiple types of contaminants, including: Stainless steel Ferrous metals Glass fragments Hard plastic Stones and other dense materials Even under high-speed production conditions, the system maintained a stable rejection accuracy and clear imaging. Test Results Packaging type: Fully sealed aluminum foil Inspection speed: Suitable for continuous mass production Detection performance: Foreign bodies as small as 0.3–0.5 mm Reject system: Automatic, with real-time image storage The customer confirmed that X-ray inspection provides a more reliable solution for their packaging line compared to traditional metal detection. Why X-ray for Aluminum Foil Packaging? Detects foreign objects even through thick aluminum foil Identifies more than just metal Works with high-moisture, high-salt, or conductive products Provides real-time imaging for traceability Reduces product risks during audits and export inspections Conclusion Shan’an’s X-ray Inspection System offers an effective and stable solution for aluminum foil packaged products. With clear imaging, high precision, and compatibility with fast production lines, it helps manufacturers meet domestic and international food safety standards with confidence. If you would like to arrange a similar test or learn more about our inspection systems, our technical team is ready to assist.     Ruth Zheng Sales Manager Whatsapp/Wechat:+86 138 2728 2272 E-mail: ruth@shanantechnology.com Company: Guangdong Shanan Technology Co.,Ltd Website: www.foodgrademetaldetector.com

X-ray Inspection: A Reliable Solution for Foreign Body Detection in Fruits and Dried Fruits

In recent years, consumers have become increasingly concerned about food safety, especially in natural and minimally processed products such as fruits and dried fruits. Manufacturers are therefore seeking more advanced inspection technologies to ensure product purity, enhance production efficiency, and comply with international export standards.   Challenges with Metal Detection Traditional metal detectors are widely used in the food industry, but they have clear limitations when applied to fruits and dried fruits. Moisture and mineral interference: Fresh and dried fruits often contain natural moisture, sugar, and minerals that create product effects, reducing metal detection sensitivity. Limited detection range: Metal detectors can only identify metallic contaminants (Fe, Non-Fe, SUS) and cannot detect non-metallic foreign objects such as glass, stones, or hard plastic. Packaging restrictions: Many dried fruits use metalized film or aluminum foil packaging, which interferes with metal detection.   Benefits of X-ray Inspection X-ray inspection systems overcome these challenges and provide a comprehensive solution for fruit and dried fruit processing lines. They can detect a wide range of foreign bodies regardless of moisture or packaging material. Key advantages include: Detects both metallic and non-metallic foreign objects such as glass, stones, bones, and hard plastic. Stable and consistent performance in detecting loose, sticky, or irregularly shaped fruits. Applicable for both bulk inspection and packaged products. High-resolution imaging ensures accurate rejection of contaminated items.   Ensuring Consistent Quality and Compliance By integrating X-ray inspection, manufacturers can significantly reduce product recalls and customer complaints, while meeting international standards such as HACCP, ISO22000, and BRC. This technology helps ensure that every batch leaving the factory is safe, clean, and of consistent quality.   About Shan’an Technology With over 15 years of experience, Guangdong Shan’an Technology Co., Ltd. specializes in providing intelligent inspection and weighing solutions for the food industry. Through continuous innovation and practical experience, Shan’an Technology remains committed to advancing food safety inspection systems that meet the evolving needs of global manufacturers.   WeChat/WhatsApp:86 13827282272 Contact us: Ruth@shanantechnology.com Website: www.foodgrademetaldetector.com

Foreign Object Detection in Snack Foods Like Potato Chips and Puffed Snacks – Challenges and Solutions

Puffed snacks such as potato chips, shrimp crackers, and corn sticks are loved by consumers worldwide for their crispy texture and rich flavors. However, during mass production, small metal fragments from worn machine parts, broken wires, or packaging debris can accidentally enter the product. This not only risks consumer safety but can also result in costly recalls and brand damage.   Key Challenges in Detection: 1.Lightweight, Irregular Shapes: Puffed products are loose and airy, making them more sensitive to conveyor belt vibrations, which can cause unstable detection signals. 2.Packaging Material Interference: Many puffed snacks are packaged in metallized film or aluminum foil bags, which can cause false signals in traditional metal detectors.   Recommended Solutions: · For non-metallized packaging: Use a high-sensitivity, dual-frequency metal detector capable of detecting down to φ0.4 mm stainless steel spheres, φ0.3 mm ferrous, and φ0.5 mm non-ferrous metals. · For metallized or aluminum foil packaging: Switch to an X-ray inspection system that can detect not only metals but also glass, stones, and hard plastics without being affected by the packaging material. · Install the detection system after the packaging machine to ensure 100% inspection of finished products before shipment. With over 15 years of manufacturing experience, Guangdong Shan’an Technology Co., Ltd. offers complete metal detection and X-ray inspection solutions tailored to snack food production lines, ensuring your brand meets the highest global food safety standards.     For expert advice and solutions, contact us today: Guangdong Shanan Technology Co., Ltd. www.foodgrademetaldetector.com ruth@shanantechnology.com Whatsapp/Wechat: +86 138 2728 2272
