FT-NIR: MOVE-T

Overview

MOVE-T Liquid Dairy Analyzer

Discover the MOVE-T

The analysis of milk and dairy products is essential for ensuring quality, safety, and compliance with industry standards. Fourier Transform Near Infrared (FT-NIR) technology is renowned for its rapid, non-destructive testing, ensuring precise and repeatable analysis of fat, protein, lactose, and total solids in dairy products.

The new MOVE-T is a compact FT-NIR benchtop analyzer focusing on liquid analysis from raw milk to liquid finished products, intermediates, and premixes.

Advanced FT-NIR Technology: Provides precise and reliable analysis.
Wearless Quartz Flow Cell: Offers maintenance-free durability.
2-in-1 Sample Handling: Facilitates efficient sample processing.
Automated Cleaning: Consistent, dependable results every time.

Innovative 2-in-1 System

The 2-in-1 system of the MOVE-T is designed to streamline your workflow. It allows for automated, product dependent handling, enhancing efficiency and precision in your processes. The dual system can switch software controlled between a powerful homogenizer and a peristaltic pump for sample treatment and transport, depending on the product. Unlike conventional FT-IR milk analyzers, the MOVE-T excels in processing even the most viscous liquid dairy products with ease.

The MOVE-T offers unparalleled flexibility, ensuring consistent sample preparation and reducing manual intervention. Whether you need homogenization or straightforward pumping, the MOVE-T adapts seamlessly to your needs, ensuring optimal results every time.

Why homogenize Raw Milk before Analysis?

The homogenization of raw milk results in the breakdown of fat globules into smaller, uniformly distributed particles, preventing the formation of a cream layer on top. This process ensures the milk sample is consistent, which is essential for accurate and reproducible analysis results.

Furthermore, homogenized milk is more stable, reducing the likelihood of separation during analysis, which helps in obtaining reliable measurements.

When to use the Peristaltic Pump

Unlike raw milk, other types of milk and liquid dairy products do not require homogenization for analysis. The measurement cell with 1.000µm path length accomodates even for viscous samples like cream and ice cream premixes or liquid products with additives or crystal sugar.

Using the peristaltic pump only, without the homogenization step, will also extend maintenance intervals as well as the overall homogenizer’s lifespan.
