 Show. The high specification, low-cost system was successfully launched earlier this year to compliment their range of Metal Detectors, Check Weighers A checkweigher is an automatic machine for checking the weight of packaged commodities.

It is normally found at the offgoing end of a production process and is used to ensure that the weight of a pack of the commodity is within specified limits.

Visionscan has been designed to help manufacturers avoid the penalties often imposed for incorrectly labelled products. Capable of operating at speeds of approximately 185 ppm, the system compares each pack with up to 9 pre-set parameters and rejects any which are not an exact match.

Also on show is the Insight Compact X-ray machine which recently received a patent on it's inspection technology. This system is highly successful in raising the level of contamination detection whilst lowering the cost of X-ray ownership to as low as [pounds sterling]27,500. This low-cost system has also proven its value outside of the domain of contaminant contaminant /con·tam·i·nant/ (kon-tam´in-int) something that causes contamination.

Any of a family of alloy steels usually containing 10–30% chromium. The presence of chromium, together with low carbon content, gives remarkable resistance to corrosion and heat.
. With enhanced detection and reject tracking abilities, automated product learning and QA features, the Sentry is a highly sophisticated powerful inspection tool in the continuing process of hi-tech quality inspection.

Finally, the Eclipse CS4000 high-speed checkweigher will form part of the MIACS MIACS Manufacturing Information And Control System  2002 demonstration. This revolutionary line management software from Cintex has recently been developed to include advanced communication and reporting facilities, with complete product set-up and machine configuration for all networked machinery from one remote PC.
