A Variety of X-ray Services Available
We offer fast reclaim and x-ray inspection services to help you meet your production deadlines. Start with a free product sample test to identify the smallest contaminant our system can detect. Next, choose to have a custom-configured x-ray system delivered to your plant or ship your products to our facility for re-inspection.
Off-site X-ray Inspection Services
If space on your production floor is limited, we provide off-site inspection of suspect products, with disposal services when needed. This service reduces costs for smaller reclaims by eliminating equipment shipping and setup fees.
After inspection, all products will be returned to you. Contaminated products can be disposed of at your discretion.
Mobile X-ray Inspection Services
We offer mobile x-ray inspection services at your location, so you do not need to send quarantined products to third-party sites. This saves time and money, reduces contamination risk during transport, and gives you full control during the re-inspection and rework process.
A factory-trained METTLER TOLEDO service engineer is available to support you on-site with training, supervision, and technical assistance.

Our flexible rental agreements can be customized to fit your project needs. We offer month-to-month contracts, short-term emergency rentals, medium-term solutions, and long-term arrangements.
Whether you need an x-ray system for a brief special production run or an extended period during maintenance, we can tailor rental terms to your requirements.
We begin by testing your product to verify that our contaminant detection capabilities are tailored to your product type. Next, we inspect the product using one or more x-ray systems to maximize detection accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions About X-ray Inspection Services
How are x-ray inspection services used for food safety?
X-ray inspection services from METTLER TOLEDO offer advanced x-ray systems to quickly detect physical contaminants such as metal, glass, bone, and plastics in food products. Services include off-site inspection and on-site mobile deployments for audits and re-inspections. These help food manufacturers stay on schedule with production, maintain product quality, and reduce waste. They help to protect brands by verifying quality in bulk, pumped, or packaged foods, minimizing recalls and enhancing consumer trust through precise, non-destructive scanning.
What are the benefits of mobile x-ray inspection compared to purchasing a system?
Mobile x-ray services from METTLER TOLEDO bring calibrated systems directly to your facility for targeted inspections. This option is ideal for validation, handling overflow without disrupting production lines, and managing seasonal peaks or product trials. With expert setup and operator support, mobile x-ray inspections deliver results comparable to permanent systems, support quick return on investment (ROI) by reducing downtime, and allow real-time monitoring of inspection and rework processes.
What should food manufacturers do if products fail initial inspection?
If products fail inspection, manufacturers should:
Isolate and quarantine affected batches to prevent contamination of good products
Conduct a thorough investigation to identify the source of contamination or defects
Determine if products should be discarded or reworked
If reworking, choose a reliable x-ray inspection service provider like METTLER TOLEDO
