“If you always do what you always did, you will always get what you always got.” That quote from Albert Einstein – who had a way with words and, of course, an even better way with inventing, improving and innovating – rings true today across various marketplaces, products and methods of production. Such a focus on innovation and x-ray product inspection, for example, allow manufacturers to make high quality, safe products for consumers to enjoy.
In industries like food, beverage, pet food and pharmaceuticals, innovation in product inspection technology allows manufacturers to not just do what they’ve always done, as Einstein says, but always strive for better. Innovations in systems drive better efficiencies, throughput, safety, quality and a better overall total cost of ownership.
Innovation is a continual goal and emphasis of my own work for Eagle, where I regularly share my insights and knowledge with others. Starting this month, I’ll talk about how innovation advances the entire marketplace as part of a new “Eagle Speaks” Docu-series, which includes videos, e-books and other tools to help you build on innovation, know-how and performance.
At Eagle, our team of experts around the world has built on their experience and range of solutions to continually advance technologies in inspection to find and reject contaminants and check for product quality and integrity, while also enabling greater traceability.
