Understanding Foreign Material Inspection Inside and Out

KEYWORDS: food safety
10/17/24 2:00 pm to 10/17/25 EDT
Contact: Vania Halabou

In-line inspection systems play a critical role in preventing products with foreign material from reaching your customers, but many food safety professionals may not fully understand their in-house detection equipment's strengths and weaknesses—and what solutions exist to address them. In this webinar, the speakers will provide an in-depth understanding of foreign material inspection in manufacturing processes.

We will explore both in-line and external inspection systems, their capabilities, and their limitations including:  

  • The most common types of in-line equipment and what are they best suited for
  • The major blind spots or downsides of relying entirely on in-house equipment
  • How external inspection services work, and how they can complement internal systems

Speakers:
