Model No:
ANRI08
Brands: ANRITSU , ANRITSU

Details

Anritsu XR75 ‘DualX’ dual energy x-ray equipment benefits from 2 main feature upgrades to achieve both reliable and high-specification product inspection: 

  1. Higher sensitivity sensor;
  2. Longer life x-ray generator and sensor.

APPLICATIONS

Anritsu XR75 features meet today’s high demands for food safety, protecting your customers from even the smallest contaminants. Superior, proven image processing technology identifies what previous x-ray system designs may have missed.

DualX technology for fresh food x-ray

The XR75 ‘DualX’ model features Anritsu’s Dual Energy Imaging Technology which analyses two x-ray signals at the same time – one high energy and one low energy. This gives a higher detection rate of low-density items not previously detectable by standard x-ray systems. 

This model inspects fresh food products in a high-speed production environment with outstanding accuracy and precision. The XR75 DualX machine detects:

  • Material differences between organic and inorganic items to detect low-density or soft contaminants like stone, glass, rubber, metal or bone. Ideal for finding bones in poultry and other meat products.
  • Overlapping products and rough surface products in a pack or bag, for example, french fries, frozen vegetables and chicken nuggets.
  • Excellent detection of small metals including wire.

For packaged foods

In addition, for packaged goods, the DualX system offers all of the other detection capabilities of an Anritsu x-ray inspection system, including:

  • Missing product detection
  • Product/ pack count
  • Product shape detection
  • Virtual weight check
  • Package integrity check

For unpackaged foods

For unpackaged foods like raw poultry and meat products which need non-contact product inspection, the XR75 DualX offers a model with a curtainless system.

High Definition technology aids contaminant detection

XR75 DualX x-ray machines also feature Anritsu’s advanced High Definition technology which detects many contaminants to high levels of accuracy, including:

  • Metal (including ferrous, non-ferrous and stainless contaminants) down to 0.4mm* sensitivity using HD Imaging Technology detection. UltraHD technology options are also available which can detect metal down to 0.2mm*.
  • Wire down to 0.5mm x 2mm long* sensitivity.
  • Mineral stones down to 2.0mm*.
  • Bone (in red meat) down to 2.0mm*. (For x-ray inspection detection in poultry see Anritsu’s DualX or Pipeline x-ray system).
  • Glass and mineral stones down to 1.0*mm sensitivity.

* Subject to product density and presentation

KEY FEATURES

New technology and design features

The Anritsu XR75 DualX model offers new x-ray generator and detector features to minimize running costs. It is now more reliable, accurate and energy-efficient.

  • The x-ray generator and detection sensor continue to provide outstanding sensitivity but an integrated cabinet cooling system means the new system generates less heat. This sealed, non-circulating tube cooling system means that no external air conditioning is required, reducing operating costs.
  • If a lower detection sensitivity is suitable for a specific product, the operator can further reduce power usage on the menu using the variable x-ray power function. 

Different sized models

  • Belt widths of 270mm for products up to maximum width 240mm and maximum height 120mm.
  • Belt widths of 420mm for products up to maximum width 390mm and height 220mm.
  • Variable belt speeds to suit specific application.

Long-term machine versatility

The Anritsu x-ray system provides a long-term, flexible inspection solution. Its comprehensive range of adaptable features make it easy for operators to add new applications or products:

  • Algorithms to cover a wide range of products.
  • Variable speed conveyors.
  • Variable power x-ray source.
  • HACCP support.
  • Ethernet connection to QUICCA data collection software. 

Built-in efficiencies

Anritsu x-ray equipment system design focuses on creating efficiencies through easy-to-use parts, support and documentation:

  • Operators can create new products and adjust existing settings using graphs and colour-coded algorithm feedback via Touch Screen HMI, eliminating the need for factory support.
  • The same user interface is used across all the Anritsu XR75 x-ray machines, SSV checkweighers and M6 metal detectors to minimise operator training time.
  • Auto-learn product set-up wizard.
  • Reject logs and image storage.
  • Maintenance logs and diagnostics with on-screen troubleshooting guides.
  • Remote support capable.
  • Data secured on solid state drive with embedded software.
  • USB, Ethernet included - Ethernet/IP options.
  • Compatible with the QUICCA overall quality control and management system.

Sanitary features

  • Removable curtains.
  • Curtainless models.
  • Tool-less, removable belting.
  • Angled external surfaces.  
  • Mirror finish product zone.
  • Enhanced AMI sanitary upgrades (optional).

Easy maintenance

Maintenance features shorten problem diagnosis and help operators to get back up and running without outside assistance, minimising downtime:

  • System diagnostics with error and alarm codes and on-screen corrective action prompts.
  • Plug-and-play boards.
  • Easy-release conveyor design.
