The device can perform a quick and accurate texture analysis (TPA) of up to 20kg. Also, it uses a flexible and user-friendly software to increase performance and implement a variety of user tests which is necessary for texture analysis.
In food production, changes in ingredient levels can cause several simultaneous changes in product characteristics. A texture analyzer has the capacity to replace human sensory evaluation by providing a numerical value which serves as a quality assurance standard by which products can be evaluated.
Some of the texture analyzing benefits are:
Reliable, repeatable, accurate testing – consistent company-wide
Quality assurance – confidence in product performance
Processing equipment settings optimization – mixing, transport, storage, and packaging
Respond to new regulations or legislation
Create new and alternative products with desired texture
Cost savings – maximize efficiency
Some of the parameters that can be measured using texture analyzer include
Adhesiveness
Chewiness
Cohesiveness
Consistency
Crispiness
Crunchiness
Elasticity
