Moisture Transmitter

In high-volume manufacturing operations including snack food, converting, chemical, wood products, and others, there are a select few but measurable parameters that can have a significant impact on final product quality at several points in the process. Moisture, oil (fat) content, and coat weight directly influence product-to-product variation, prompt additional operational/energy costs to the company, and ultimately cause excessive waste, especially if no parameter control measures are in place.

Near infrared (NIR) technology is a trusted method to rapidly measure these parameters, but with the rigors of operating in challenging manufacturing conditions, only few options exist.

These systems are available in a variety of simple interfaces, environmentally rated enclosures, and flexible configurations that are easy to implement and integrate into nearly any production line or conveying system to enable closed-loop control of your process. If your manufacturing process can benefit from rapid on-line analysis of important compositional parameters of incoming raw materials, manage product moisture before and/or after entering a process oven, or help improve spot-checking procedures of final products before distribution, then we are here to help.
