💡 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Q: What is EDD in food metal detection?
- A: EDD stands for Energy Dispersive Detector, a sensor technology used to identify metal foreign objects in baked goods by analyzing X-ray energy spectra.
- Q: Why is calibration data critical for EDD systems?
- A: Calibration ensures detection sensitivity, false reject rates, and compliance with food safety standards; drift can cause missed contaminants or costly production stops.
- Q: How can EDD failure be traced to source?
- A: Failure traceability requires logged calibration records, detector source batch data, environmental logs, and root-cause analysis linking misses to sensor degradation or improper setup.
