Foodman X-Ray Inspection System for Fishbone

The Foodman X-ray system for fishbone is built to find small pin bones in fish meat. It handles fillets, whole fish and processed fish products and fits different production layouts.

Imaging

Ultra-high-resolution imaging with a 0.1 mm TDI (Time Delay Integration) detector produces detailed images in which even hard-to-see bones are visible. Compared with ordinary X-ray machines the system gives higher contrast on metal, glass and similar materials, making foreign bodies easier to identify.

Software

• FIAP (Foodman Intelligent Algorithm Platform) optimises image processing to pick out foreign bodies against complex backgrounds, including metal, glass, ceramic, bone, stone and shell, as well as low-density fish bones.
• AI self-learning: a database of almost a thousand fishbone types, built from many samples, is used together with a wavelet-mutation particle-swarm algorithm to search suspect areas quickly. The self-learning function sets parameters, collects real-time data, updates quality reports and event records and refines its models without manual input.

Operation

Windows operating system with a 50-inch 4K external screen and a 17-inch colour touch screen. The interface is simple, prevents data loss and includes a backup function. Remote parameter adjustment and troubleshooting are supported. The conveyor is IP66 and other parts IP54; leakage is below 1 μSv/h.
