Techik X-ray inspection machine helps to reject low-density foreign bodies in nuts
With the World Cup in full swing, food sales also saw a wave of gains. According to the statistics, in China, only on the opening day of the World Cup, beer, drinks, snacks, fruit take-out overall orders increased 31%, including snacks up 55%, nuts and seeds up 69%, peanuts grew 35%. Preparing snacks and drinks while watching the game becomes the favorite leisure way.
On the other hand, in the 11.11 sales list, nuts snacks also achieved good results, thanks to their crunchy flavor and various nutrition. Mixed nut products, such as daily nuts, usually made of dried hazelnuts, cashews, walnuts and raisins, were also among the best in sales.
With the improvement of consumption level and the rise of e-commerce, nuts market share is getting higher and higher, and the market potential is huge. Whether it is watching the ball game, watching the drama or giving gifts, nuts have become the choice of more consumers. However, inside mildew in nuts, insect erosion and foreign bodies are where complaints lie after the purchase. Thus, the quality of nuts and food safety are always the concern of whether consumers trust and repurchase.
Techik combo machine of X-ray and vision inspection can be used to help processing enterprises to solve multiple detection issues, based on the technologies of dual-energy X-ray, visible light, infrared and AI.
Different kinds of raw materials in roasted nuts are generally quality graded through external characteristics, internal characteristics, and miscellaneous content. That is, external defects, internal defects, as well as foreign bodies that should not appear in the finished products, all need to be detected and sorted.
Based on different dimensions such as material internal shape and appearance color, Techik combo machine of X-ray and vision inspection detects the internal defects, external defects, foreign body impurities of nuts such as sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, peanuts and walnuts, and helps high-quality and high-reputation products.
X-ray: shape + density + dual-energy material identification
Combined with AI intelligent algorithm, X-ray can recognize foreign impurities, such as metal, stones, glass and other, and also recognize defects in the shell and nuts, such as internal atrophy, based on the internal morphology of the material.
Visible light: shape + color recognition
Visible light can identify heterocolor, heterogeneous and foreign bodies, such as mildew, black, half grain, leaves, paper, etc. With the support of AI intelligent algorithm, it can identify the subtle differences in appearance that cannot be identified by the human eye.
Infrared: material identification
Foreign body impurities such as fruit shell, plastic, glass, insects can be identified through the material difference, so that the detection range is wider.
Techik has been deeply engaged in food and drug safety, food processing fields for more than ten years, focusing on the new road of manufacturing specialization, which can help to build a high-quality nut roasted goods production line.
