Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and a device for automatic radioscopic quality control of foods, in particular to the automatic X-ray inspection for foreign bodies and other incorrect fillings of industrially produced foods at high object speeds by means of line or surface X-ray cameras and fast automatic image processing.

Since the production facilities are generally in operation around the clock, it is expedient to carry out the quality inspection with the same cycle times in which a foodstuff to be inspected is guided past the inspection station. It has been found that these high clock rates are no longer manageable by human auditors.
  • line cameras are used for data acquisition, the pixel information of which is read out, digitized and processed in an evaluation system in a specific line cycle.

For a 100% check, it is therefore necessary to branch the material flow and have it checked by several inspection systems. This increases the costs for quality assurance considerably, so that only a few manufacturers can operate this relatively large cost.
  • the test speed is essentially determined by the detection sensitivity of the camera system and the maximum possible line clock rate, i.e. on the readout and processing speed.
  • maximum line clock rates of approx. 200 lines / sec can be realized at approx. 1000 pixels / line and 250 mm line length.

Abstract

Selon le procédé décrit de contrôle radioscopique automatique de la qualité de denrées alimentaires (104), on fait passer des denrées alimentaires à contrôler (104) devant une source de rayons X (100) et on détecte les rayons X qui traversent des denrées alimentaires à contrôler (104). Un capteur (108) présentant plusieurs éléments capteurs (102a-102c) génère une image de potentiel à partir des rayons X détectés (100a-100c) en décalant les charges générées (110, 112, 114) sur plusieurs éléments capteurs (102a-102c) en synchronie avec le sens (106) et la vitesse de déplacement des denrées alimentaires à contrôler (104) reproduites sur le capteur (107) et en transférant les charges partielles générées par les éléments capteurs (102a-102c) sur l'image de potentiel. Les denrées alimentaires à contrôler sont finalement évaluées sur la base de l'image de potentiel.
