Inspection Solutions by Industry

Pet Food

Pet Food Inspection Systems and Equipment

Pet food has become as sophisticated as human food. Products feature a great variety of natural ingredients, densities, and packaging sizes, from 0.5-oz liquid cat snacks to 40-lb kibble bags. Variability in raw materials, frequent recipe changes, and large packaging formats increase the risk of foreign material contamination and inaccurate weights. Our inspection systems can detect foreign materials in both dry and moist formulations and come with large aperture widths to accommodate all bag sizes. X-ray inspection systems identify bone, stone, glass, and dense contaminants, while metal detectors and checkweighers ensure product safety, weight accuracy, and regulatory compliance across pet food production lines.

Typical Challenges
Detecting contaminants in a variety of natural raw ingredients
Ensuring inspection accuracy with different densities and moisture levels
Checking exact weight of a wide range of packages
Inspecting large-format bags without compromising throughput
Cannabis

Cannabis Inspection Systems for Regulated Products

For cannabis producers, not only is it critical to remove foreign matter contamination, but also to ensure exact weight and reduce giveaway of a strictly regulated and valuable product. Cannabis products such as flower, edibles, gummies, and infused oils present unique inspection challenges due to product variability, small batch sizes, and evolving regulatory requirements.

With outstanding foreign object detection capabilities and weighing increments of 0.001 g, Anritsu's equipment ensures compliance and quality of gummies, flowers, CBD oils, and other cannabis products. Advanced checkweighers and x-ray inspection systems help producers maintain consistency, prevent costly giveaway, and protect brand integrity in competitive markets.

Typical Challenges
Ensuring compliance in a strictly regulated sector
Adhering to high quality standards
Minimizing giveaway
Managing frequent product and packaging changes
Cosmetics

Cosmetic Product Inspection Systems

The great variety of densities, packaging materials, and dispensing mechanisms pose considerable challenges to quality inspections of cosmetic products. Lotions, creams, powders, and liquids are often packaged in complex containers with pumps, caps, and seals that must be verified for completeness and accuracy.

The accuracy of Anritsu’s equipment is ideal for dealing with such complexity. Our metal detectors, X-ray systems, and checkweighers can detect defects such as incorrect filling levels, foreign objects trapped in seals, or missing springs in pump bottles. These inspection solutions support consistent product presentation, reduce waste, and help cosmetic manufacturers meet quality expectations across high-speed lines.

Typical Challenges
Ensuring completeness of dispensing mechanisms
Detecting incorrect filling levels
Inspecting seal integrity
Maintaining accuracy across diverse packaging formats
Industrial

Industrial Inspection Systems for Manufacturing and Components

The possible applications of Anritsu's technology extend to many other sectors. We work with manufacturers of different products—chemicals, precision-machined components, automotive products, and more—helping them advance their quality programs with accurate inspection and weight checks. Industrial environments often require flexible inspection systems capable of handling varied materials, shapes, and weights while maintaining reliability in demanding conditions.

X-ray inspection systems, metal detectors, and checkweighers help detect missing components, foreign material contamination, and weight inconsistencies before products move further down the supply chain.

Typical Challenges
Ensuring completeness of hardware kits
Detecting foreign matter contamination in chemicals
Sorting by weight of components
Maintaining inspection accuracy in harsh production environments

X-Ray, Metal Detection, and Checkweighing Inspection Equipment

Anritsu X-Ray systems, Checkweighers, and Metal Detectors are designed in-house to protect the quality and safety of products from a variety of industries. Each solution is engineered to deliver accurate detection, reliable performance, and seamless integration into existing production lines.

FAQ

Product inspection equipment can be applied at multiple stages of non-food and industrial production, including raw material intake, in-process inspection, and final packaging. Depending on the application, inspection systems are used during filling, sealing, kit assembly, and final weight verification to detect foreign material contamination, verify completeness, and ensure consistent product quality before distribution.

Inline checkweighers help manufacturers verify accurate fill weights and detect missing or incomplete products at high production speeds. In industries such as pet food, cannabis, cosmetics, chemicals, and industrial manufacturing, checkweighers reduce product giveaway, support compliance with labeling requirements, and help prevent costly rework or customer complaints caused by underfilled or incomplete packages.

Yes. Anritsu inspection systems are designed to handle a broad range of product sizes, weights, and packaging formats. From small sachets, vials, and cosmetic containers to large bags, pails, and industrial kits, x-ray systems, metal detectors, and checkweighers can be configured to maintain accuracy and reliability across diverse production environments.

Foreign object contamination can occur in any production environment, including non-food and industrial settings. Potential contamination sources include raw materials, worn processing equipment, damaged packaging components, or environmental debris. X-ray inspection systems and metal detectors help identify contaminants such as metal fragments, stones, glass, and other dense materials before products reach customers.

X-ray inspection systems can be used to inspect packaged products and, in some cases, empty packages prior to filling. Typical applications include detecting contaminants in powders, pellets, liquids, and finished goods; verifying completeness of kits or assemblies; inspecting seal integrity; and identifying missing or damaged components inside opaque or metalized packaging where vision systems or metal detectors may be ineffective.

Selecting the right inspection solution depends on your product characteristics, packaging, production speed, and quality requirements. Anritsu offers multiple ways to evaluate inspection systems, including in-person demonstrations, product testing, virtual demos, and educational resources through the Anritsu Academy. Our application specialists can also work directly with your team to recommend the most effective inspection solution for your specific production environment.
