Traceability in the product control
It is traceability that allows us to take into account all of these variables all these variables: the origin, the history of processes, transformations, the controls it has undergone, its final destination and its its final destination and its distribution chain, among many other things.
Food traceability
Food traceability is a concept that has become increasingly relevant in recent years. In a world where concern for food quality and safety is paramount, understanding what food traceability is and the different types that exist has become essential knowledge for producers, consumers and health authorities. In this article, we will explore this crucial topic in depth and answer the most common questions, such as what is food traceability and what are the most prominent types.
Products traceability
From its definition to its importance today, we will explore every aspect of product traceability in a clear and accessible way.
X-Ray Control
If equipment is type-approved, the operator does not have to apply for any type of authorisation for its use or have any type of personnel licence, as it is considered exempted equipment.
The importance of quality control of food
Food quality control is a critical aspect of the food industry. Ensuring that the products that reach our plates are safe and meet quality standards is essential to protect the health of consumers and maintain the reputation of companies.
X-ray inspection: beyond contaminants
Traditionally, x-ray inspection equipment has been used to detect contaminants in everything from foodstuffs to pharmaceuticals. However, the technology has evolved and is now capable of detecting much more. Some of the new uses of x-rays help in the detection of unusual shapes, missing or excess product, breakage or defects.
Tips for choosing RX inspection equipment
X-ray inspection systems are increasingly being used in the quality control of food, chemical and pharmaceutical products in order to ensure that the final product reaching the consumer is completely safe and free of foreign bodies. Many manufacturers are incorporating this type of equipment into their production lines, but what should be taken into account when choosing the right machinery?
