The Mettler Toledo Safeline is a pipeline X-ray inspection system installed on the bulk butter product infeed, upstream of the Hassia FFS machine.
Product flows through the unit in-pipe under pressure; the X-ray generator scans the product stream, and a pneumatic reject/divert valve automatically diverts any non-conforming product before it reaches the portioning machine.
This configuration provides 100% inspection of all products before portioning — a more robust food safety arrangement than post-pack inspection, as no contaminated product can enter the packaging process.
