Inspx Shield X-Ray System 2016

Design language system for the full line of Peco-Inspx X-ray inspection machines. Massive, incredibly efficient systems for detecting anything from cracks in glass to metal shavings in frozen chicken at upwards of 1500 bottles, cans or chickens per minute. A project with unique challenges and enormous constraints but myriad opportunities to improve usability, ergonomics and brand image.

Every aspect of the design was studied and evaluated. A new brand personality was developed. A visual balance was struck between user-friendly high-tech and industrial efficiency.

The plant floor is a brutal place and great pains were taken to resist water and caustic chemicals, ease cleaning and assist maintenance. Scalability was addressed and interior systems were reorganized and designed for optimum airflow. Hinges were developed for space constraints. Sloping, faceted surfaces and hurricane-resistant vents keep the water off and feathers out.
