Extrusion viscometer XVisc

vibratingprocessfor the food industry

Until now, no instrument has had the capability to accurately measure viscosity of food products inside an extruder. Enter the XVisc. A world first. The beautifully simple solid state sensor delivers you real time viscosity in the heart of the extruder, every second of the day. Your permanent eyes into process. Welcome to increased product quality, reduced waste and the productivity improvements that come with real control. Viscosity measurement is critical during extrusion to monitor process efficiency, reduce waste, and improve product quality. The high sensitivity and excellent repeatability of the XVisc allows for continuous insight into the extrusion process and provides real-time production control. The purpose is to eliminate sampling, improve product consistency, and to optimise the extrusion process. No half measures. No compromises. It’s about finding the sweet spot. Too early means misshapen products, too late means wasted food. The XVisc finds that critical point, for a perfect product every time. Seamless integration into your existing extruder. It’s never been easier. XVisc can be installed directly in the flow without the need for additional pipework. With its standard 1/2” UNF thread, installation is simple. Either utilise a spare port or replace a thermometer and fit to the barrel or die. Connect to the power and you are ready to go. And with XVisc’s inbuilt thermometer, there’s no sacrifice to functionality.
