Moisture - the critical measurement in foods processing

Moisture is the most critical process parameter in the Foods Industry. It can impact a variety of product quality attributes such as shelf-life, taste, appearance and texture. Control of processes such as baking, frying and drying through on-line moisture measurement is vital for meeting product quality specifications and can help achieve considerable energy savings by the avoidance of overdrying and process optimization.

The purpose of the range of on-line gauges from NDC Infrared Engineering is to provide real-time measurements to laboratory accuracy. The MM710 and BG710 Foods Gauges from NDC are calibrated against the customer's preferred reference method in order to give laboratory accurate results in real-time from start to finish. In other processes, on-line measurement may not be feasible and for these we offer the InfraLab, the rapid at-line analyzer designed for the process environment.
