March 24, 2026 – METTLER TOLEDO Product Inspection Group will showcase a range of inspection technologies at the Food Northwest Process & Packaging Expo, taking place April 20–21 at the Oregon Convention Center in Portland, Oregon. Located in booth 502, the company will present x-ray, metal detection, checkweighing and vision inspection systems that help customers ensure product quality, protect brand reputation and operate more efficiently.
"Fruit, vegetable and nut processors and packers deal with high volumes, wet environments and natural variation in raw product, which can make inspection especially challenging," said Tom Koshy, Sales Director at METTLER TOLEDO Product Inspection. "Our systems are designed for the realities of agricultural packing, giving manufacturers the accuracy, durability and ease of use they need to keep lines moving while meeting food safety and retailer compliance requirements.”
At the show, METTLER TOLEDO will exhibit its new X53 x-ray inspection system, the premium model in the X3 Series, designed for lines handling complex bulk products. The X53 integrates HiGain+ DE (Dual Energy) detector technology and AMD (Advanced Material Discrimination) Pro software to simultaneously process two energy spectra. This allows it to differentiate materials with similar densities, such as bone from surrounding meat, and identify low-density contaminants that single-energy systems may miss. The X3 Series is ideal for a variety of applications including dried, fresh or frozen fruits and vegetables, nuts, pulses and more.
Also on display will be the M31R metal detector mounted on the SL1000 conveyor for small and medium-sized packages of dry, wet and frozen products. Featuring METTLER TOLEDO's SENSE™ software, the M31R delivers high detection sensitivity with fewer false rejects, making it a cost-effective solution for facilities seeking high performance within a smaller footprint. The SL1000 conveyor provides smooth, dependable product transport with flexible speed and size options, allowing the system to fit easily into existing production lines.
Another highlight at the show will be the CS3600 PlusLine checkweigher. Built for heavy-load applications and challenging production environments, the CS3600 PlusLine offers precise weighing accuracy, speeds up to 300 feet per minute and a capacity up to 220 pounds. Its robust design allows easy access for cleaning and maintenance, and optional metal detector integration enables combined inspection for use as a critical control point to help safeguard product quality, compliance and brand reputation.
All inspection systems on exhibit are equipped with METTLER TOLEDO’s ProdX™ data management software. By enabling users to remotely monitor equipment and easily collect, save, search and share inspection data, ProdX helps streamline documentation and maintain regulatory standards while providing insights into line performance.
