For companies in the Food & Beverage industry, achieving 100% product inspection is critical to safety and brand protection. With touchpoints from receiving through quality assurance to manufacturing, plus inspecting or reworking finished goods prior to shipment, the earlier in the process an issue is detected, the less expensive it is to correct.
That's where product inspection comes in. By using checkweighers, metal detectors and x-ray inspection equipment, you can prevent over/underweights, various contaminants, and increase productivity of your line.
See how A&D's line of weighing and product inspection equipment can help streamline your processes.
