Question 1

Detection figures are typical unloaded values and vary with product density and pack format. SameGram offers on-site testing and a 1000+ SKU library to confirm performance before purchase.

Accepted Answer

Detection figures are typical unloaded values and vary with product density and pack format. SameGram offers on-site testing and a product library of 1000+ SKUs to confirm real performance before you buy. What affects detection on your line Product density — higher density contrast improves detectability. Pack format — foil, metallized, or multilayer wraps change the read. Contaminant type & size — denser and larger objects are easier to catch. Line speed — throughput settings tune sensitivity vs. capacity. SameGram runs an on-site test on your actual product and packaging, then matches it against a 1000+ SKU library so the quoted performance is real, not theoretical. Request an on-site test →

Question 2

Yes. Beyond metal, glass, stone, and bone, the systems detect dense rubber, hard plastics, ceramics, and internal paper inserts left in sealed packs.

Accepted Answer

Yes. Beyond metal, glass, stone, and bone, SameGram X-ray systems detect dense rubber, hard plastics, ceramics, and even internal paper inserts (labels, leaflets) left inside sealed packs. Non-metal contaminants it can catch Dense rubber & hard plastics — e.g. conveyor or machine fragments. Ceramics & stone — chips from kiln or processing wear. Glass shards — from jars, bottles, or broken containers. Internal paper inserts — misplaced labels or leaflets sealed in the pack. Detection depends on density contrast versus the product. Very low-density items may need verification — SameGram confirms on-site before purchase. Check detection capability →

Question 3

Yes. Unlike metal detectors, X-ray detects contaminants inside foil, metallized film, and multilayer packaging by density, not conductivity.

Accepted Answer

Yes — and this is a key advantage over metal detectors. X-ray identifies contaminants inside aluminum foil, metallized film, and multilayer packaging by density, not conductivity, so the pack material no longer blocks inspection.

Question 4

Yes. SameGram X-ray systems keep operator radiation leakage below 1 µSv/h and stop the beam via enclosure interlocks when opened.

Accepted Answer

Yes — X-ray inspection is safe for operators. SameGram systems are engineered for radiation safety: seafood models measure X-ray leakage below 1 µSv/h, well within international exposure limits, and enclosure interlocks stop the beam the moment a panel is opened. How operator safety is built in Leakage control — seafood models measure X-ray leakage below 1 µSv/h, far under international limits. Interlock protection — the beam cuts off automatically when an enclosure is opened. Contained enclosure — radiation is sealed within the inspected zone during operation. Figures are typical unloaded values. SameGram validates every installation against applicable radiation-safety standards before handover. Browse the Products & Technology FAQ →

Question 5

Dynamic weighing ensures 100% inline inspection.

Accepted Answer

A: Dynamic checkweigher automatically weighs products while moving on a conveyor, without stopping production.

Question 6

Accuracy depends on energy, detector, and algorithms; dual-energy and AI improve material discrimination and lower false positives.

Accepted Answer

A:X-ray inspection systems are highly accurate, typically detecting contaminants as small as 0.5–1.0 mm, depending on product type, packaging, and system settings. Modern systems with dual-energy or AI-based image analysis can reliably distinguish between different materials (metal, glass, stone, bone, plastic) and reduce false rejects. Accuracy also depends on proper calibration, line speed, and operator maintenance.

Question 8

Use 3D/CT for complex internal geometry, failure analysis, or precise metrology when 2D images aren’t sufficient.

Accepted Answer

A:Use 3D/CT for complex internal geometry, failure analysis, or precise metrology when 2D images aren’t sufficient.

Question 9

X-ray inspection machines should receive an annual technical inspection, with quarterly checks for high-volume lines, while daily basic checks help maintain stable performance and prevent issues.

Accepted Answer

A:Most X-ray inspection machines need a full technical inspection once a year to confirm calibration, detector stability, and radiation safety. In busy production lines, a quarterly performance check is recommended to keep sensitivity consistent. Routine daily checks of image quality, belt condition, and cleanliness help catch small issues early and prevent drift.
