Why Choose MQ-XR
See Through Non-Metal Contaminants
Empty-machine detection sensitivity: 0.4mm SUS ball, 1.0mm glass, 1.0mm ceramic, 0.2×5mm SUS wire. Glass shards, stones, hard plastic and rubber that slip past any metal detector are all visible to X-ray imaging — one machine covers every contaminant type, regardless of material.
Deep-Learning Image Judgment
Our in-house Sooview inspection software runs the ZeroShot-SvDetector deep-learning algorithm, with detection recipes customized per packaged product. AI instantly flags foreign objects, product trapped in seals and torn bags — no operator staring at images, and the judgment standard stays identical across all three shifts.
Contaminants and Seals, One Scan
Beyond foreign-object detection, the same X-ray image verifies seal integrity — product-in-seal and damaged packs are identified and rejected automatically. That eliminates a manual seal-inspection station and stops defective bags before they ever leave the plant.
Five Models, Right-Sized Selection
The MQ-XR series offers five models covering product sizes from 240×50mm up to 700×300mm, X-ray sources from 210W to 350W and belt speeds of 10-60m/min. For bagged products up to 10kg, pick by bag format and throughput — no paying for a big machine to inspect small pouches.
4G Remote Support, No Waiting
Dual connectivity comes standard: 4G wireless plus wired Ethernet. When the line hits a problem, our engineers dial in remotely to diagnose and assist with setup online. Most software issues are resolved without an on-site visit, cutting downtime to a minimum.
304 Stainless, Washdown-Ready
Full brushed 304 stainless steel body with an IP66-rated conveyor and IP54 protection elsewhere. Runs reliably at 0~45°C and 30~85% RH non-condensing — built for food plants that hose down and sanitize every single day.
Problems It Solves for You
Metal detectors only find metal. Glass shards, ceramic fragments and stones mixed into bagged snacks sail straight to market — one complaint with compensation and a recall costs far more than the machine itself.
X-ray imaging doesn't care whether a contaminant is magnetic. Empty-machine sensitivity reaches 1.0mm glass, 1.0mm ceramic, stones, hard plastic and 0.4mm SUS balls — metallic and non-metallic contaminants intercepted in one pass at the end of the line.
Seal contamination and torn bags are checked by eye. Long shifts mean tired eyes and inevitable misses — leaky bags reach distributors, whole batches come back, and nobody can pin down who's responsible.
AI verifies seal integrity in the very same scan that checks for foreign objects, auto-rejecting packs with trapped product or damage. The judgment criteria live in the algorithm — day shift and night shift apply exactly the same standard.
Every product changeover means re-tuning detection parameters. Get it wrong and the line over-rejects good product; get stuck and the line idles for half a day waiting for a technician to arrive.
A 21.5-inch touchscreen runs our Sooview software, whose ZeroShot deep-learning algorithm builds a detection recipe per product. And via 4G or wired network, our engineers connect remotely to walk you through changeover and tuning online.
Food plants are humid and hosed down daily. Ordinary equipment gets moisture in its electricals and faults every few days — the inspection step itself becomes the line's bottleneck.
The IP66-rated conveyor withstands direct washdown, the rest of the machine is IP54, and the brushed 304 stainless body resists corrosion — continuous operation at up to 85% RH non-condensing.

Functions in Detail
Rejection Options
Multiple rejection mechanisms are available, configured to your bag format, pack weight (up to 10kg) and line takt. Once a contaminant, seal defect or torn bag is judged, the defective pack is ejected from the main line automatically — no manual picking that risks secondary contamination or stoppage, while good product passes through untouched.
Sooview Inspection Software
Our in-house Sooview software is built around the ZeroShot-SvDetector deep-learning algorithm, with contaminant-detection recipes tailored to each packaged product type. The 21.5-inch touchscreen displays the X-ray image and judgment result directly; operators follow a guided changeover wizard — no algorithm expertise required.
Connectivity & Remote Support
The machine ships with both 4G wireless and wired network connections, each backing up the other. Even where factory networking is restricted, 4G keeps it online — MiQi engineers connect remotely to deliver technical support and hands-on operating assistance, shortening both fault response and changeover-tuning wait times.
Cleaning & Maintenance
Brushed 304 stainless steel body with no coating means no flaking paint. The IP66 conveyor takes direct washdown; the remaining sections are IP54 dust- and splash-proof — fully compatible with daily washdown and sanitation routines in food plants. The structure is designed for easy access, so routine maintenance can be done by your own line team.
Model Selection Guide
Five models tiered by product size: MQ-XR-2410 handles 240×50mm, stepping up to MQ-XR-7040 at 700×300mm. Single-pack weight up to 10kg, X-ray source power 210W to 350W, belt speed 10-60m/min, and the whole machine runs on AC 220V at 2.0kW — standard workshop power is all you need.
Industries & Application Scenarios
Full in-line inspection at the end of chip, nut and snack lines: stones and shell fragments carried in with raw material, plus product trapped in seals, are all rejected — the final checkpoint before case packing.
For vacuum-packed braised meats, pickles and preserved vegetables, X-ray sees straight through aluminum foil and laminate films to the contents — metal, glass and hard-plastic contaminants stopped before cartoning.
On high-speed lines for pillow-pack and sachet milk and small pouched drinks, foreign-object detection and seal-damage/product-in-seal judgment happen in the same scan — keeping leaky pouches out of the channel and whole-batch complaints off your desk.
Dumplings, glutinous rice balls and meatballs in bags: bone fragments, stones and other hard contaminants detected in-line. The machine runs normally in cold, humid workshops within 0~45°C and up to 85% RH.
Merged-lane inspection after packing compound seasoning powders and sauce sachets. The compact model for 240×50mm product sizes fits these small formats, judging contaminants and seal defects simultaneously without eating line space.
For pet food and snack exporters, customer audits demand a documented foreign-object control point. In-line X-ray inspection paired with rejection records provides hard evidence for exactly that requirement.

Was FSMA 204 Really Delayed to July 2028? What Every Other Article Gets Wrong
Almost every article on page one says FSMA 204 "was delayed to July 2028." That sentence is imprecise in a way that matters. FDA did publish a delay document on 7 August 2025 (90 FR 38084, document 2025-14967, docket FDA-2014-N-0053) — but it is a proposed rule, and as of 16 July 2026 it has never been finalized. The original compliance date of 20 January 2026 is still sitting in the regulation as written; it was never formally amended. What actually pushes the practical date to 20 July 2028 is a congressional appropriations act (P.L. 119-37), which works as an enforcement funding prohibition rather than as FDA rulemaking. That distinction changes what you can rely on, for how long, and what your legal team should be told. This article walks the timeline precisely, then addresses the second myth: that FSMA 204 requires checkweighers, metal detectors or X-ray systems. It does not. It has zero equipment requirements. We explain which regulation actually applies, and give you a checklist you can run this week.
How to Validate a Vendor's AI Inspection Claims: The Questions Nobody Wants You to Ask
Almost every accuracy number attached to "AI-powered" food X-ray inspection today is a vendor claim with no independent verification behind it. When you trace the most widely circulated figures back to their source, you land on equipment-maker and SaaS marketing blogs — not peer-reviewed studies, not third-party test reports. Searches aimed specifically at peer-reviewed validation of these numbers return vendor technical documents instead. And no vendor we found discloses the three things that would make an accuracy number meaningful: the test method, the sample size, and the confidence interval. This article is not an argument that AI inspection doesn't work. It is a practical guide to telling a real capability apart from a marketing sentence. It explains what the peer-reviewed literature actually says the hard problem is (training-data annotation, not model architecture), why a demo on a vendor's samples proves almost nothing about your line, and gives you a printable list of questions to put in front of any supplier — including MIQI. Written by Engineer Cai for engineers and QA managers who have to sign off on the purchase.
What X-Ray Inspection CANNOT Detect: An Honest Limitations Guide
Almost every X-ray inspection page online tells you what the machine finds — metal, glass, stone, bone, dense plastic. Very few tell you what it misses. X-ray imaging works on density contrast: the beam is absorbed differently by different materials, and the detector renders that difference as grey. When a contaminant absorbs roughly as much radiation as the food around it, there is no contrast, and no contrast means no image — regardless of software, AI, or price tag. This guide walks through the physics behind that limit, the contaminant families it affects (hair, paper, low-density plastics, cartilage, string, wood), the product-side conditions that make a detectable object undetectable, and a practical checklist for deciding when X-ray is the right tool, when a metal detector is the better answer, and when you need both. Written by an engineer at a factory that builds all three — which is exactly why we can afford to tell you when X-ray will not save you.
