Moisture systems pass trials

The Tews Elektronik range of microwave moisture measuring systems has achieved major success with one of the leading pet food manufacturers in the United States.

The accurate measurement of moisture and density is of the utmost importance to the pet food and animal feed industries to ensure quality product and to achieve optimum yield The Tews Elektronik range of microwave moisture measuring systems has achieved major success with one of the leading pet food manufacturers in the United States

Following unsuccessful trials of capacitative, resistive, and infra-red methods, a Tews system was bought for long-term trials of the microwave technology.

This proved so successful that engineers were sent to Germany for training and two more trial units were ordered.

This was to enable the customer to fully test the Tews system across its range of mixtures, sizes and forms of product.

These trials were a success and the customer decided to standardise on the MW3260 unit with a planar sensor and terminal.

This system will be installed in all of their factories throughout the USA.

To date four MW3260s have been delivered with another four due later in the year.

Tews products are sold and supported by Isatec in the UK and Ireland. Request a free brochure from Isatec ...
