Proper Moisture Control - Consistent Product Quality from Lab to Line

by MoistTech Corp, USA

Designed with full real-time process control in mind, online moisture sensors designed specifically for measurement and control are developed for instant non-contact measurement for all types of moisture sensor applications.


Engineered to allow users to both optimise their processes whilst dramatically improving product quality, MoistTech sensors afford manufacturers a process quality that is instantly measurable.
 


Product quality and consistency was at the forefront when MoistTech developed the IR3000 sensor.

This particular sensor is equipped to accurately provide moisture measurements in grains throughout the process, yielding a consistent quality product from lab to line that immediately reduces downtime, wasted energy and product loss.

The MoistTech series of moisture analysis sensors may also increase the quality and efficiency of the manufacturing process.

Saving time and money
Moisture measurement and control analysers can be found in thousands of applications all over the world as they save manufacturers a large amount of time and money by detecting variables in the manufacturing process and allowing corrections to be made in real time. The IR3000 sensor uses Near-infrared (NIR) technology for instant on-line, off-line and laboratory moisture instrumentation.

Moisture levels in grain production are a critical component during the various stages of production as grain products can become either too wet or dry, wasting manufacturer’s time and money as well as impacting the quality of the product.

Ideally, a moisture control system should be able to accurately detect moisture at different stages of the manufacturing process, be easy to maintain and tough enough to withstand the harsh, abrasive nature of the raw materials and the mixer environment.

The installation of MoistTech’s online sensors helps to prevent bad product due to unsuitable moisture levels. Once installed the sensor can be used to fine tune a setup to make sure it’s putting out a higher quality and more consistent product and ultimately improving the bottom line, thus potentially saving money and time whilst helping to prevent negative results caused by inconsistencies and human error.

MoistTech’s IR3000 sensor technology monitors the product even with small gaps in product flow and is unaffected by ambient light.

The sensor is insensitive to material variations such as particle size, material height and colour, whilst providing continuous, reliable readings with zero maintenance and an only one-time calibration. A non-drift optical design that allows operators to make immediate process adjustments confidently based on real-time measurements, are also supported by a non-contact, zero maintenance plug and play solution.
