Anritsu Responds to Food Industry's Rising Sanitary Standards With X-Ray Systems Featuring Sanitary Design
Buffalo Grove, IL - (September 16, 2008) Designed in accordance with the sanitary design guidelines of the American Meat Institute (AMI), Anritsu Industrial Solutions USA Inc.'s new sanitary x-ray system has been added to its popular and proven KD7400 Series. The specially designed housing of this latest model is crevice-free, allowing for easier cleaning and the prevention of bacteria build-up during food manufacturing. The inclusion of solid shaft rollers for the conveyor belt, rather than hollow rollers, further contributes to the sanitary operation of the x-ray system.
"Bacteria hides in the crevices of any piece of [food manufacturing] equipment," explained Erik Brainard, general manager, Anritsu Industrial Solutions USA Inc. "To assist in the prevention of bacteria counts, we've taken Anritsu's existing technology and put it in a sanitary x-ray package. Our newest models are still #1 in terms of accuracy and ease of use, with the added benefit of a sanitary design." This newest KD7400 Series X-Ray System model boasts the same 30-second, no-tool disassembly feature found in all Anritsu KD7400 Series X-Ray Systems. The interlocked conveyor guarding, rollers, drives and belt can be removed for cleaning and maintenance in less than 30 seconds.
All KD7400 Series X-Ray Systems have the ability to connect to Anritsu's new QuiCCA quality data collection software package. QuiCCA links all Anritsu equipment in a facility to one main hub of operation for real time review of production by management and quality control. KD7400 Series X-Ray Systems also offer new sophisticated contamination detection and mass measurement algorithms that further improve upon Anritsu's industry-leading contaminant detection capabilities as proved in head-to-head evaluations. The new algorithms enhance detection accuracy of low-density glass, stone and bone contaminants. Depending on the application, the KD7400 Series routinely detects 0.3 - 0.8 mm metal sphere contaminants, 0.2/0.3 x 2 mm long wire and 2.0 - 3.0 mm glass and stone, while the simultaneous mass measurement feature enables extremely accurate weighing and data tracking.
The design of this new x-ray system is IP69K-rated for high pressure, sanitary washdown environments. It is especially ideal for meat, cheese and vegetable food manufacturing applications.
The KD7400 Series X-Ray System has earned top ratings in tests conducted by the Danish Meat Association. Trusted and accepted by processors worldwide, more than 5,000 Anritsu x-ray systems have been installed to date.
