Modern grain testing with Infratec™ NOVA

Working with grain is a dynamic process. Seasons change around the globe. Weather patterns shift and affect harvests and quality. Trucks never arrive at regular intervals but according to the weather. Prices fluctuate at the mercy of the elements. Keeping an even productive flow takes skill and perfectly designed tools. Familiar tools with a cutting edge. Tools that let you do your job smoothly and efficiently no matter what the world throws at you. Tools at the cutting edge of technology.

FOSS NIR solutions use either near infrared transmittance or near infrared reflectance technology all according to the job to be done. When measuring whole grain for instance, near infrared transmittance used in the Infratec™ Nova grain analyser offers superior performance. Measurements are made in a lower wavelength range, 850-1050 nm. The higher energy level of the light in the lower range allows for deeper penetration into the grain kernels, so not only the surface, but also the inner part of the kernel is measured, giving a superior representation of the sample analysed.

Infratec™ Nova with the unique ANN calibration gives you results with outstanding accuracy and stability that enables you to analyse even the most unusual samples during difficult harvests. It is a global system for a global market built on 30 years of experience and harvest data comprising over 50,000 cross checked samples.

The factory standardized instruments provide a common base for payment giving the exact same performance, reliability and repeatability. With the latest connectivity solutions offered by FOSS all instruments keep measuring the same regardless of local conditions making the Infratec™ Nova the number one test for grain everyone agrees on
