Ground Meat Moisture
Obtaining Proper Moisture Control
Ground beef and pork processors rely on accurate fat content analysis to ensure their meat products meet the desired specifications. By implementing rapid online testing in their processing plants, processors can access real-time information that is crucial for maintaining consistent product quality and minimizing waste.
In addition to fat content, measuring protein and moisture content allows production and quality personnel to verify if the products meet the required specifications. This not only speeds up the release of batches but also reduces the need for external product testing.
Control Moisture Levels Properly
Our non-contact IR3000 moisture sensor offers a user-friendly solution for obtaining precise measurements of fat, moisture, and protein in grab samples of meat directly from the production line. With this technology, processors can instantly obtain accurate data, enabling them to make informed decisions about their meat products.
non-contact
Our equipment never comes into contact with the product, allowing for less waste
zero drift
Our sensors are guaranteed not to drift over time – which saves time and money
closed loop
Create a closed-loop process by tying a moisture sensor into your PLC. Full control over the line!
no recalibrations
We’ve mastered the art of moisture sensors – your unit will never need to be recalibrated for the same product twice!
The Best of the Best
Near-infrared technology is the best solution to accurately measure the moisture levels of multiple applications, offering a solution that meets all quality control factors. Accurately detecting moisture levels frequently throughout the process allows for line adjustments as needed that improve the overall functionality and efficiency of the facility.
At MoistTech, we have combined our 40+ years of experience and knowledge into one highly accurate moisture sensor: the IR-3000. This instrument is capable of not only measuring ground meat moisture, but taking instant non-contact measurements of temperature, fat/oil, protein, and more.
Assess
Locate the point in the production process in which measuring moisture will be the most crucial and beneficial. Identify how you will use the moisture measurement data for improvements and if it will tie into your PLC.
Remember this could involve more than one installation point!
