LUTZ, Fla. – Eagle Product Inspection will be showcasing its x-ray inspection technologies at the International Production and Processing Expo (IPPE) 2025, taking place from Jan. 28–30, 2025, at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, Ga. Visitors to booth #C-44183 will have the opportunity to explore Eagle's latest innovations designed to enhance food safety and quality in the meat and poultry industry.
A key highlight of Eagle’s exhibit will be the new MAXIMIZER RMI+, an advanced system engineered specifically for poultry processing. This solution pairs the Eagle RMI 540 x-ray inspection machine with an automated product reject management system to deliver throughput and detection capabilities. Equipped with Eagle’s proprietary SimulTask PRO image analysis software and photon-counting Performance X-ray Technology (PXT™), the MAXIMIZER RMI+ detects bone fragments, metal and other contaminants. By capturing high-resolution images and performing real-time analysis within a fraction of a second, it reduces false rejects, minimizes manual intervention and optimizes production processes, said Eagle.
The MAXIMIZER RMI+ is built for hygienic environments, allowing for quick disassembly and assembly to facilitate easy sanitation, said the company.
Eagle will also showcase its redesigned Pipeline x-ray inspection system, featuring photon-counting Performance X-ray Technology (PXT) for bone and foreign material detection. The system's 4" pipeline is equipped with a manifold, enhancing detection accuracy across a wide range of pumped products, said Eagle. Key enhancements include reduced time and labor requirements for manifold handling, streamlined installation and calibration processes and an integrated flow sensor for precise product tracking.
Visitors can explore the FA3/M meat inspection system, which utilizes Eagle's Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) technology for chemical lean (CL) content measurements in meat. This system offers fat-to-lean ratio assessments while identifying contaminants such as metals, glass, calcified bones and stones. Operating at throughputs of up to 2,400 plastic crates or frozen blocks per hour — or up to 35 tons per hour of bulk meat — the FA3/M utilizes UPSHOT x-ray geometry for enhanced contaminant detection and measurement accuracy.
