History

Founded in 1955,[1] Peco Controls spun off its fill level monitoring division, Inspx, in 2000. In 2010 the two business lines merged again to become Peco InspX.

Pioneering Innovation

Peco InspX developed the industry standard for the x-ray of food products using a 3 beam system to greatly improve results over a single beam system.[2]

gollark: No, the idea is that instead of having radiation movement be blocked by shielding, radiation emitters detect it nearby.

gollark: Not sure if this is practical, but shielding would be quite useful sometimes, though admittedly that implementation would work oddly.

gollark: Also, for shielding-type stuff, could you not make it so that radiation-emitting blocks have radiation output reduced by lead or something nearby?

gollark: HECf reactors will still need crazy amounts of scrubbers, though.

gollark: If so, I expect reactors to eventually have their power output contain a "- stupid amount of power to scrubbers" note.
