Texture Analysis

Product Description

This simple-to-use texture analyser can be used for a variety of different products and materials and ensures an efficient, easy and productive way of evaluation. The instrument can be supplied with load cells ranging from 3 to 100 kg all with a 1 g resolution. The robustness of the instrument makes it equally suitable to be placed in conjunction with a production line as in a laboratory. The included software has been developed with an aim of being comprehensive but simple-to-use.

Evaluation of texture is often based on sensory judgement and experience. The advantages of using an instrument instead of sensory evaluation is that you get an objective, fast and cost efficient way to measure the texture in well-defined and controlled test conditions. The measurements of an instrument can either try to imitate test conditions from practical situations or use test conditions based on experience. Whatever is chosen as test condition, it should be able to distinguish between the different products and be reproducible.
