Built for modern food production environments, MEKI™ uses intelligent X-ray imaging to inspect the internal structure of packaged products with exceptional accuracy, detecting contaminants such as metal fragments, stones, glass, calcified bones, and dense plastics whilst simultaneously verifying overall product quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAI-Driven Software Architecture Reduces Cost\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike traditional inspection systems that depend heavily on costly hardware upgrades, MEKI™ integrates advanced AI-driven image processing software that enhances detection precision through smart algorithms rather than expensive mechanical components. This software-led architecture allows manufacturers to achieve superior inspection performance whilst significantly reducing system complexity and total cost of ownership. By shifting performance improvements from hardware to intelligent software, MEKI™ delivers premium inspection capability at a far more accessible price point than many competing X-ray systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eReliable Performance in Challenging Conditions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned specifically for primary packaged food inspection, MEKI™ provides outstanding reliability even in challenging conditions. Products with high moisture or salt content can be inspected without interference, and packaging materials such as metallised films or aluminium trays do not compromise detection accuracy. This ensures consistent performance across a wide range of food categories and packaging formats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompact Design for Space-Constrained Facilities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMEKI™ is engineered to fit seamlessly into production environments where space is limited. It requires less installation space than comparable X-ray inspection systems, making it ideal for facilities seeking high-performance inspection without sacrificing valuable floor area. Its compact footprint allows easy integration into existing processing lines whilst maintaining efficient product flow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHygienic Construction and Regulatory Compliance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe system is constructed from durable brushed stainless steel and incorporates an EU and FDA-approved food-grade conveyor belt, ensuring hygiene, longevity, and regulatory compliance. MEKI™ is compliant with the UK X-ray Supermarket Code of Practice, meeting the stringent requirements for food safety inspection systems supplying the UK retail sector. Optional air reject or pusher reject mechanisms with collection bins allow contaminated or defective products to be removed automatically without interrupting production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOptimised X-Ray Technology\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMEKI™ operates using a highly optimised X-ray source with power settings ranging from 30 to 60 kV and up to 100 W output, delivering strong imaging capability whilst maintaining energy efficiency. Radiation leakage remains well below international safety thresholds, ensuring a safe operating environment for personnel. A high-resolution linear scanner detector with 0.4 mm resolution captures detailed images for precise analysis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUser-Friendly Interface and Connectivity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe system is powered by the Mekitec X-Ray Inspection Software running on Windows 10, providing a stable, user-friendly interface displayed on a clear 12-inch colour TFT LCD touchscreen. Operators benefit from intuitive controls, simplified inspection parameter adjustments, and seamless data handling for traceability and quality reporting. Connectivity options include USB and Ethernet for easy integration with factory information systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFlexible Operating Parameters\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMEKI™ supports conveyor speeds from very slow delicate handling to high-throughput production and accommodates products up to 5 kg. It operates reliably in ambient temperatures between 0 and 35 degrees Celsius with optional cooling available for demanding environments. With an IP54 protection rating and tolerance for non-condensing humidity levels up to 85 per cent, the system performs consistently in real-world industrial conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSafety and Standards Compliance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered with safety as a priority, MEKI™ complies with EN and FDA radiation protection standards and includes a certified safety circuit meeting Category 3 and Performance Level PL d requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOptimised Detection Area\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe detection area is optimised according to product height, ensuring accurate contaminant identification whilst maintaining efficient inspection flow. Products must fit entirely within the inspection zone, and maximum product length depends on the selected reject configuration. Standard models support products up to 250 mm, whilst extended configurations accommodate products up to 450 mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA New Generation of Cost-Effective Quality Control\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith its intelligent AI-enhanced inspection capabilities, compact design, regulatory-compliant construction, and reduced reliance on expensive hardware components, MEKI™ represents a new generation of cost-effective X-ray quality control. It delivers premium performance, lower operational costs, and exceptional value, making it an innovation-led alternative to traditional high-cost inspection systems.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mekitec","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52323937059138,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0745\/6800\/8002\/files\/MEKI_800_1_w.png?v=1773830313","url":"https:\/\/www.womag.co.uk\/products\/mekitec-meki-x-ray-inspection-system","provider":"Womag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
