The GMS is used to analyze products such as dough and ground meat where other technologies such as NIR may not provide a suitable solution. The GMS chamber and control module are easily integrated into your process. Unlike other analyzers, its simple design contains no moving parts or optical components that require routine maintenance, resulting in extremely low long-term cost of ownership.
Advantages:
- Analyzes multiphase products such as slurries, dough, liquids and larger particle size products
- Analyzes multiple components
- Measurement is truly representative of the bulk product even for heterogeneous materials. GMS is not a surface treatment.
- Integrates seamlessly into your process with no flow obstruction
- Results are not affected by the sample color
- Excellent repeatability, accuracy, precision and stability
GMS Applications
The GMS is used to analyze samples flowing through a pipe. Typical materials include liquids, pastes, granular solids, dough, ground meat and highly viscous materials.
The GMS can be used to measure:
Moisture in:
- Raw ingredients such as corn, rice, soybeans
- Processed materials such as tomato paste, corn masa, ground meats
- Chemicals and plastics
Brix, pH, viscosity and acid in:
- Orange juice
- Soft drinks
- Mayonnaise
- Tomato products
Fat in:
- Ground meats
- Peanut butter
- Milk and other dairy products
Salt in:
- Mashed potaotes
- Most vegetable products
- Solvents in a mixture or chemical - Alcohol in beverages- Reaction progress
