Abstract

A method for X-raying products of a product stream in which products are conveyed in a conveyance direction before the X-raying in a number n lanes parallel to each other. Several adjacent products transverse to the conveyance direction are transferred as a group together into a radiation-protected X-ray room, and the products are rearranged for an X-ray process in the X-ray room such that the shadowing effects during the X-ray process are reduced.
