About AICON X-Ray
AICON X-Ray specializes in industrial X-ray inspection systems for foreign object detection and quality control, particularly in food production. The service portfolio covers needs analysis and site assessment, product testing in the laboratory or on site at the customer, design and project planning, integration of the systems into existing production lines, as well as validation and staff training. In addition, the company offers 24/7 service including remote maintenance, rental of replacement units, spare parts from local warehouses, and assistance with radiological formalities. The company's own AiSoft software enables, among other things, "Dual Energy" imaging for detecting metallic and non-metallic contamination, weight measurement, counting, fill-level and completeness checks, and remote monitoring of the false-reject-rate parameter. The systems can be integrated into production control systems via common industrial protocols such as EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, Modbus-TCP, or OPC UA. AICON X-Ray maintains sales offices in Argentina, Colombia, Brazil, Peru, and Chile and works with technology partners with over 21 years of experience and more than 1200 installations of industrial X-ray detectors.
