Features
Maintain TOP PERFORMANCE with digital services
Effective management of all your FoodScans™, whether you have one or more than 20 different instrument configurations to back-up, monitor and update. Get the benefits of fast service resolutions, when FOSS service technicians are able to access your instrument diagnostics remotely.
- Secure a high up-time with proactive monitoring by FOSS experts.
- Be certain that you have back-ups of your data and documentation for audits.
- Increase efficiency by adjusting your calibrations when there is a statistical reason.
Time to result reduced by up to 60%
The demand for greater efficiency grows as dairy plants increase throughput and introduce new end-products to stay competitive and meet changing consumer preferences. This adds to the work-load in the QC laboratory. Faster analysis time enables the QC lab to do more with the same resources.
Ready-to-use calibrations – also when introducing new product types
The intelligence and robustness of the ANN calibrations ensure you’re well equipped to deal with it all. If you need to control parameters or products that are not covered by the ANN calibrations, we can support you with the tools and competences required to make customised models.
Excellent transferability between analysers
The intelligence and robustness of the ANN calibrations ensure you’re well equipped to deal with it all. If you need to control parameters or products that are not covered by the ANN calibrations, we can support you with the tools and competences required to make customised models.
Measure colour and composition at the same time
The colour module is one of the new features available with FoodScan™ 2:
- Colour is measured with the CIE L* a* b standard
- The colour measurement is done at the same time as the composition parameters are measured
Accurate results – even with less homogenous samples
With FoodScan™ 2 you get accurate results every time because:
With 3 sub-scans an even larger share of the sample is measured, which makes you less dependent on the homogenisation step
FoodScan™ 2 is a major step forward in NIR transmission technology
