X-Ray Inspection System
NextGuard™ X-ray Detection System
The Thermo Scientific™ NextGuard X-ray Detection System provides
foreign object detection for a wide variety of food products.
The Thermo Scientific NextGuard offers an affordable, entry-level x-ray
that has higher sensitivity and better performance from previous models
at this price point to help make the transition from metal detection to x-
ray easier and more cost-effective for customers while providing them a
higher quality product.
•
The NextGuard offers up to 50 percent better detection sensitivity than Thermo Fisher’s previous value-based X-ray
system, the EZx
•
The system is designed to be reliable, easy-to- install and compact (one meter long). It comes equipped with
intuitive software
•
Multiple contaminant detection algorithms to increase detection probability—safer products and fewer
complaints/recalls
•
