What are the benefits of X-ray inspection? 

According to Govind Bhardwaj, working as sales manager at Economy Refrigeration, the worldwide consumption of readytoeat or packaged food is increasing at a fast pace. The increasing regulatory and consumer demands have intensified the pressure on the food industry to implement reliable methods of food inspection to ensure product safety and quality. X-ray technology can be used in food inspection to detect physical contaminants but also to study the internal structure of food products for quality purposes.  

How about the inspection trends or demands in the future? 

According to Economy Refrigeration, the trends in the food industry are changing continuously, and in the future the food and drug safety regulations are meant to intensify which results in increased requirement of compliance and traceability for all the products. To serve this, Economy Refrigeration feels X-ray inspection systems will be very much suitable and desirable. X-ray systems can also work well with widely different product shapes, sizes and packaging materialsBecause of all this, Economy Refrigeration believes that the demand of X-ray inspection systems is going to increase in the upcoming time. 

What are the benefits to co-operate with Mekitec?

Moreover, Mekitec is continuously developing and improving the system and software. This allows Economy Refrigeration to update the existing systems which keeps theup to the mark.
