Say goodbye to visual inspection and use technology to plug contamination loopholes

Food production industry

🏭 Physical contamination during food production is one of the most direct and prevalent safety threats in the industry. ⬇️ ⚰️

📋 According to spot inspection reports from market regulatory authorities in various regions, foreign matter contamination is a leading cause 📈 of non-compliant food products. 🚫

  • Detection challenges after production: Traditional manual sorting and visual inspection are inefficient 🐢 and prone to missed detections 🔍❌. This becomes especially difficult at high production speeds ⚡.
  • Diverse sources of contamination: ⚠️ Foreign objects such as metal fragments (from equipment wear) 🔨, plastic debris 🔀, and glass 📦 can potentially enter the product at any stage of the production process.
  • Loss Control: 💸 The financial impact of batch rejection due to contamination during food processing is substantial. 📦❌💰 For premium products ⭐ (such as high-value dairy items and pre-made meals), the consequences of quality defects—including product recalls 🚨 and damage to brand reputation 💔—are particularly severe. 📉

⚠️ "Underweight" is the Sword of Damocles hanging over the head of every food business. 🔪

❌ The low frequency and error-prone nature of manual spot checks fail to guarantee 100% compliance of outgoing batches, leaving enterprises exposed to substantial regulatory risks. ⚖️

  • Production Equipment Performance Degradation: ⬇️ Wear and tear, parameter drift, or inefficiencies in machinery such as filling and packaging machines can directly lead to unstable filling volumes. Weight fluctuation 📏 serves as an early indicator of a production process going out of control. ⚠️
  • The Label of "Shortweight Products": 🚨 Once discovered by consumers or exposed to the public, it's easy for a company to be tagged with labels like "untrustworthy" or "engaging in fraudulent practices." 🏷️ In the social media era, this negative impression spreads swiftly 🌐, causing ruinous impact to the brand image. Consumers will perceive the company as deceptive, turn to competitors' products ➡️👎, and lead to long-term customer attrition. 💔
  • A Prime Target for Professional Claimants: 🎯 Underweight products are among the easiest issues for professional compensation claimants to identify and document. 🔍 They typically purchase large quantities of suspected non-compliant products 🛒, conduct professional tests 🧪, and then file claims ⚖️. This overwhelms the company, draining resources and causing significant financial 💸 and reputational damage 📉.

🚫 For canned beverage companies, foreign matter contamination control is no longer an option, but a baseline standard. ✅📏

📦 The contamination issue lies in the opaque nature of the packaging and the high-speed production process. Consumers cannot visually inspect the contents 👁️❌ as they would with bottled beverages. Once a problem is discovered after opening and consumption, the blow to brand trust is devastating ⚠️.

  • The Challenge of Detection in High-Speed Production: ⚡ Beverage canning lines operate at extremely high speeds, reaching 1,000-1,200 cans per minute. At such velocities, reliance on manual spot checks or visual inspection is completely impractical 🐌—inefficient and highly unreliable. It is imperative to depend on fully automated, in-line detection technology 🔧.

  • Diversity in Contaminant Shapes and Materials: 🌪️ Contamination sources include not only metal 🔩, but also non-metallic foreign objects such as glass , stones , high-density plastics 🧩, rubber , and bone fragments. These represent complete "blind spots" 🗺️🚫 that traditional metal detectors are entirely unable to detect.

Production Line Issues of a Beverage Company

The production line of a certain beverage company has repeatedly failed to effectively detect metal fragments in raw materials and metal shavings caused by equipment wear, resulting in an approximate loss of 15 working hours per month.

In 2022, metal foreign objects led to 3 customer complaints, and the loss incurred from product recalls reached RMB 850,000.

The accuracy of the existing filling equipment is only ±1g, and the raw material waste caused by overfilling exceeds RMB 2 million every year.

Products with substandard weight that flow into the market face the risk of claims from professional claimers (who specialize in product non-compliance claims).

It fails to meet the increasingly strict supervision requirements on net content imposed by market supervision authorities.

The data among the company’s existing inspection devices is isolated, making it impossible to establish a unified quality control system.

Equipment failures occur frequently, leading to high maintenance costs.

Due to the lack of data traceability capability, it is difficult to trace the source of quality problems.
