For the measurement of color and specks in flour and semolina for maximum production quality
Real-time measurements during production
Our sensor enables you to check the product color and specks during flour and semolina production. It provides early
detection of even subtle color deviations, contamination, and sieve ruptures to ensure top quality.
Complete analysis
The software offers clear user interfaces displaying the current measurement readings or trend charts. It can operate as a stand-alone solution or be integrated into Bühler's process control system. It is also possible to measure fluctuations of the residual starch content in bran.
No more costly laboratory tests
The measurement probe supplies reproducible color values in the CIE 1976 color space (L*, a*, b*) and classifies brown and black specks by size. It replaces subjective test methods where the values determined frequently vary, such as the Pekar test or manual counting of specks.
Retrofit to existing systems
This online color and specks measurement unit is an excellent solution for retrofitting existing systems. Compact and flexible installation allows it to connect directly to existing components including gravity spouts, scales and retarding sections. The color sensor can also be combined with the NIR Multi Online Analyzer.
