Weather it is made from cane or beet, a tight quality control is important throughout the complete sugar production chain to ensure efficient processes for optimized yield and quality.
Analysis of sugar with FT-NIR spectroscopy
FT-NIR spectroscopy offers a fast and effective tool for controlling the critical parameters of raw materials, products, and by-products in all production steps: sugar cane, bagasse, juices, molasses, massecuites, raw sugar, refined sugar, syrups and bioethanol. Providing stable and accurate analysis results of multiple components within seconds, it is a non-destructive method without any sample preparation and does not require the use of any solvents or reagents. Huge time and cost savings can be achieved by implementing FT-NIR .
X-ray fluorescence (XRF) enables fast and nondestructive analysis of elements such as K, Ca, S, and Si for sugar crop nutrient diagnostics. Equally important is its ability to screen for toxic metals such as Cd, Hg, and Pb which plants can absorb from soil or water contamination.
High value handheld XRF performer for the most demanding analyses: synchronizes power, function, precision, and accuracy for a dynamic, field capable, lab-like experience.
Powerful tool for developing sophisticated calibration methods for your lab or process needs, yet easy to use for QA/QC routine tasks.
A hybrid brix and salt meter born by the fusion of optics and metal. An optical prism is used for the concentration via light refraction, and titanium for salt concentration via electrical conductivity.
Equipped with an automatic sample loader, allowing for analysis of large numbers of samples without operator intervention.
