Eagle Product Inspection Introduces Fa3/C to Ensure Enhancement of The Quality

X-ray and fat measurement technology manufacturer Eagle Product Inspection has launched FA3/C, a new product inspection solution which ensures enhancement of the quality and safety of products.

Eagle Product Inspection Launches New Product Inspection Solution

This new technology analyzes 100% of product throughput and accurately calculates the amount of lean and fat in raw meat like beef, pork or lamb packaged in sealed cartons, vacuum sealed packs or open crates.

The company exhibited this new technology for the first time at Pack Expo.

The equipment is also capable of calculating moisture and protein amounts in products.

The FA3/C makes use of x-ray imaging geometry for improved precision for the detection of contamination and weight measurement.

The company claims that its factory footprint is the smallest in the industry.

With the aim of accommodating different inspection requirements, Eagle has equipped FA3/C with its product changeover feature, Product Switch, which helps in increasing production uptime.

Product switch removes the need for manual intervention and allows for automatic package bar code scanning.

The technology also features advanced sanitary design suited for harsh environments which adhere with the rigorous American Meat Institute (AMI) guidance for sanitary machine construction.

Apart from the FA3/C, the company also exhibited the Eagle Pack 430 PRO with Material Discrimination X-ray technology (MDX) with the new Eagle Easy MAT application software.

Speaking about the launch, Eagle Product Inspection Strategic Business Unit (SBU) Manager Kyle Thomas said: "In 2013, the United States Drug Administration (USDA) issued 75 recalls, of which 13% or 331,732[1] pounds of products contained extraneous materials.

All our product inspection innovations serve to safeguard consumers against substandard products whether from foreign body contamination or packaging defects, thus protecting manufacturers against brand-damaging and costly product recalls."
