Inspection device with integrated x-ray and weighing device

An inspection device including:

• (a) a radiation protection housing;
• (b) an electromagnetic radiation-based inspection device;
• (c) a weighing device;
• (d) a conveyor operable to transport products in a transport direction along a product path through the inspection device from an entry region, then to an electromagnetic radiation inspection region of the electromagnetic radiation-based inspection device, then to a weighing region of the weighing device, and then to an exit region;
• (e) wherein the product path from the weighing region to the exit region includes an inclined region that traverses an exit height difference in a height direction which extends orthogonal to both the transport direction and a width direction of the inspection device;
• (f) wherein the conveyor includes a conveyor belt that circulates along the product path through both the electromagnetic radiation inspection region of the electromagnetic radiation-based inspection device and the weighing region of the weighing device and also circulates around at least part of the inclined region;
• and
• (g) wherein the weighing region is disposed immediately in front of the inclined region in the transport direction:
• wherein the weighing device comprises a weighing module that is insertable as a unit into the inspection device and removable as a unit from the inspection device, and wherein at least part of the inclined region is defined by a weighing module outlet ramp component fixed in place on the weighing module.
