Ishida Europe has installed an x-ray inspection system for a Slovakian spice supplier.
Thymos, based in Veľká Lomnica, has recently installed an Ishida IX-GN-2443-S x-ray inspection system and two DACS-GN-SE012 checkweighers. The additions enable Thymos to handle a wide range of pack sizes, from small 5g retail sachets to larger 1.5 kilo packs.
The IX-GN model is checking for contaminants in the very small pack sizes at speeds up to 90 packs per minute (ppm).
“We were very impressed with our first checkweigher and its accuracy and reliability has meant that we have continued to invest in Ishida as our business expanded,” said Thymos’s purchaser, technician Štefan Kiška. “When we needed to source X-ray inspection equipment to further enhance our quality procedures, Ishida was the natural choice and again we have been more than satisfied with our decision.”
Thymos was founded in 1993 and the company’s spices and spice mixtures currently have around a 32% share of the Slovak market. In addition, Thymos exports its products to the Czech Republic, Poland, Romania, Hungary and Bulgaria.
