NDC Technologies strives to improve product quality and performance with measurement system

NDC Technologies works closely with leading food manufacturers to enable them to better control product quality and improve process performance. In several food industries, such as snack foods, breakfast foods, biscuits, cookies and crackers, NDC’s near-infrared on-line gauges and at-line food analysers are fit-for-purpose solutions, delivering high-accuracy and robust measurements that are trusted for process optimisation and control, says the company. 

The NDC’s new Series 9 on-line gauge is making progress amongst international food manufacturers. This next-generation solution is designed for process optimisation, allowing production plants to perform single- or multi-component measurements of moisture, fat/oil, protein, degree of bake and other constituents using the InfraLab at-line analyser. Stable, ultra-accurate measurements coupled with high-performance capabilities enable manufacturers to operate their process at peak efficiency, deliver quality products and maximise KPIs. Series 9 is easy to use and maintain, and adaptable and scalable to meet current and future site requirements, according to NDC. 

It’s intuitive and easy to use, requiring no special skills to operate, says the company. Analysis can be performed in less than five seconds, delivering savings through cost reduction from routine sampling. More representative sampling enables you to enhance product quality and consistency and measurements are robust and reliable, and not affected by product and ambient changes such as temperature, relative humidity and factory lighting.
