Magnet systems are especially suited to product lines where iron particles like nails, screws or metal shavings may be present. These contaminants are more likely to occur in the production of bulk goods such as spices or cocoa powder. “<b>The most cost-effective and generally mandated variant of foreign object detection is the metal detector</b>”, says von Stein. “It can detect contamination from stainless steel or aluminium, where magnets would fail.”</p> <p class="p1"><b>X-ray inspection systems are being used increasingly for organic products with particularly strict quality requirements</b>. They are ideal when there is a chance of foreign objects made of glass and ceramics or larger pieces of bone ending up in the production line – for example when filling glass jars or processing jams or meat.</p> </div> </div> <div class="media__img media__img--below palm-one-whole desk-one-whole lap-one-whole media__img--block "> <div style="width: 921px; max-width: 100%;" class=" "> <img src="/interpackcache/pica/5/4/7/7/7/5/38429651731581739/Manner-Sesotec-RAYCON-300dpi.jpg" srcset="/interpackcache/pica/5/4/7/7/7/5/38429651731581739/Manner-Sesotec-RAYCON-300dpi.jpg 250w, /interpackcache/pica/7/4/7/7/7/5/38429651731581739/Manner-Sesotec-RAYCON-300dpi.jpg 500w, /interpackcache/pica/3/4/7/7/7/5/38429651731581738/Manner-Sesotec-RAYCON-300dpi.jpg 921w" sizes="100vw" data-metsearch-img="true" alt="X-ray system" title="X-ray system" /> <p class="caption push-half--top"> Ideally, all critical checkpoints in processing are defined and equipped with modern detection systems.

It is designed to ensure that all packaged products are free from contamination for their further progress along the supply chain. “<b>But it’s not enough to rely on this alone</b>”, says food inspection expert von Stein. “Contaminated raw materials can get into the manufacturing process at every point of the production line. Human error also plays a major role here. <b>For instance, the blue gloves often worn at production lines repeatedly end up in the manufacturing process</b>.”</p> <p class="p1">On their way through the production lines, contaminants – a screw, for example – can be broken up into small pieces during the various process steps. This creates more and smaller foreign objects that become increasingly hard to detect. “The later I separate them out, the higher the costs, for example due to the energy, ingredients, packaging trays or films that have already been used. The risk for further damage or necessary machine downtimes also increases”, the process expert summarizes further risk factors.</p> <p class="p1">The sooner checks are carried out and the more regular they are, the better. Ideally, all critical checkpoints in processing are defined and equipped with modern detection systems. This prevents large quantities of food having to be separated out at a late stage and sent for manual inspection, which is time-consuming. <b>Sometimes large quantities of edible food are disposed of for safety reasons, even though only a single product may be contaminated</b>. “It’s a positive side effect of early monitoring”, says von Stein. “In this way, a supplier’s product quality is already checked when the goods are received.”</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div><div class="dim-chapter dim-chapter-headline grid__item palm-one-whole lap-one-whole desk-one-whole desk-wide-one-whole "> <h2 class=" gamma weight--light " > Increasingly fewer false-positive rejects with AI </h2> </div><div class="dim-chapter dim-chapter-text-media-module grid__item palm-one-whole lap-one-whole desk-one-whole desk-wide-one-whole "> <div class="media-module "> <div class="media"> <div class="media__body"> <div class="media__body__txt media__body__txt--link-icons"> <p>For metal detection, Sesotec uses artificial intelligence to complete particularly challenging tasks. For example in the production of Parma ham, which contains a great deal of salt. Shot pellets and salt share a number of physical properties. They both conduct electricity and emit similar signals when their electrical conductivity is measured. This means that the salt in the ham could be falsely detected as a shot pellet.</p> <p>“To solve this problem, the monitoring device works with different frequencies that allow us to suppress the signal emitted by salt so that only genuine foreign objects such as shot pellets are recognised”, explains the manager. Thanks to this special setting, the ham remains in the production flow and is not mistakenly ejected, which ensures greater monitoring precision and efficiency, as well as less food waste.</p> <p>“Modern AI systems have the great advantage of being trainable”, says von Stein. “With the help of large amounts of sample data, they can learn to distinguish between different signals.” <strong>Over time, the AI identifies different patterns and properties to distinguish salt from shot pellets or typical foreign objects such as fragments of glass, metal threads or wood shavings</strong>. “The system therefore recognises foreign bodies more and more reliably over time and reduces false-positive rejects.”</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div><div class="dim-chapter dim-chapter-headline grid__item palm-one-whole lap-one-whole desk-one-whole desk-wide-one-whole "> <h2 class=" gamma weight--light " > A self-monitoring system </h2> </div><div class="dim-chapter dim-chapter-text-media-module grid__item palm-one-whole lap-one-whole desk-one-whole desk-wide-one-whole "> <div class="media-module "> <div class="media"> <div class="media__body"> <div class="media__body__txt media__body__txt--link-icons"> <p class="p1">Sesotec’s Integrated Compliance Monitoring is a self-monitoring safety system. During production, food is fed through a metal detector at defined intervals, which continuously generates an electromagnetic field. Foreign objects like metals affect this field due to their specific electrical and magnetic properties that differ from the surrounding materials, thus triggering a reaction.</p> <p class="p1">The regular signals ensure that the system is correctly calibrated. The message “I’m ready for operation” is transmitted continuously. If an alarm is triggered, only a small quantity of food has to be sent to quarantine for further inspection. <b>This means that only the affected batch is stopped, while the rest of the product can safely continue to pass through the inspection</b>.</p> <p class="p1">“Today, modern lines produce packaging units at speeds of 300 to 900 per minute. In the beverage sector, this figure jumps to 2,000 cans in 60 seconds. Fully automated monitoring is absolutely essential for effective quality assurance here”, says von Stein.</p> </div> </div> <div class="media__img media__img--below palm-one-whole desk-one-whole lap-one-whole media__img--block "> <div style="width: 1535px; max-width: 100%;" class=" "> <img src="/interpackcache/pica/1/7/7/7/7/5/38429651731582289/sesotec-milchwerke_schwaben-02-300dpi.jpg" srcset="/interpackcache/pica/1/7/7/7/7/5/38429651731582289/sesotec-milchwerke_schwaben-02-300dpi.jpg 250w, /interpackcache/pica/3/7/7/7/7/5/38429651731582289/sesotec-milchwerke_schwaben-02-300dpi.jpg 500w, /interpackcache/pica/5/7/7/7/7/5/38429651731582290/sesotec-milchwerke_schwaben-02-300dpi.jpg 1000w" sizes="100vw" data-metsearch-img="true" alt="detection system" title="detection system" /> <p class="caption push-half--top"> Ideally, all critical checkpoints in processing are equipped with modern detection systems.

Nowadays, quality and food safety are vital factors for consumer confidence and ultimately for economic success.”</p> <p class="p1">Every food producer is aware of the strict legal requirements laid down by the EU and many other countries. Infringements of these can lead to expensive recall campaigns, fines and, in the worst case, legal proceedings. According to an analysis of food safety alerts in the EU, around 12 to 15 percent of all food recalls in recent years have been triggered by foreign objects. <b>In the wake of these alerts, millions of tons of food are destroyed for safety reasons.</b></p> <p class="p1">Implementing monitoring measures and investing in modern safety systems is worthwhile, as recall campaigns are time-consuming and incur high costs of 1.31 million euros on average according to studies carried out by insurance companies specializing in recall and product liability insurance. In the food sector, the average costs are said to be even higher, as particularly strict safety standards apply here. The reputational damage for affected companies often lasts years and entails long-term economic losses.</p> <p class="p1">“With our complex systems, we focus on a comprehensive view of quality management.
