FoodScan™ 2 Meat Analyser
The FoodScan™ 2 Meat Analyser is the new gold standard for fast, accurate and easy analysis of meat and processed meat products. It can be used in all stages of meat production - from checking incoming raw material to final product control.
Overview
Value
With time to result reduced by 50%, new labelling parameters, ability to measure colour and batch standardization functionality, the FoodScan™ 2 Meat Analyser brings you a new level of performance to streamline operations.
Sample Type
Any type of ground or homogenised meat sample.
Parameters
Fat, moisture, protein, collagen, saturated fat, carbohydrates, energy, salt, sodium, water activity and ash, plus colour measurement and batch standardisation functionality.
Features
All the parameters you need for your labelling in one analysis
With FoodScan™ 2 you get the information you need for labels on consumer packs.
This gives you the possibility to reduce your costs for use of external labs and enables the QC lab to do more with the same resources.
Besides fat, moisture, protein, collagen and salt (Cl-based) the FoodScan™ 2 delivers results about the content of energy, carbohydrates, saturated fat, sodium and ash.
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
Batch standardisation
The FoodScan™ 2 includes a new batch standardisation function to ease your adjustment of fat content in a batch.
Accurate results – even with less homogenous samples
With FoodScan™ you get accurate results every time because:
- With 3 sub-scans an even larger share of the sample is measured, which make you less dependent on the homogenization step
- FoodScan™ 2 is a major step forward in NIR transmission technology
