Soil analyzer AgriQuant B8

benchtopFT-NIRsampling

Forage like grass and maize silage, is widely used for feeding cows. The farmer needs to know the composition of his forage to make sure he is feeding his cows for optimal milk yield. Forage samples are widely analysed with NIR, but cumbersome and time consuming drying and grinding of the samples means that it takes up to several days to get an analytical answer for composaition of forage samples. With the AgriQuant B8 it is now possible to analyse wet forage samples directly without drying and grinding. The analytical result is obtained within few minutes on the AgriQuant B8, meaning that the farmer can get a result without waiting time. Try to quantify the resources, time and energy you use for drying and grinding forage samples today. Then imagine yourself saving that cost - this is now possible with the patented AgriQuant B8 from Q-Interline. Sampling - AgriQuant B8 The sample is analysed by reflection measurement in AgriTubes with lid, which are rotating during analysis. When rotating the AgriTubes the analyzer is scanning an area of the sample which is many times larger compared to traditional petri dish solutions. This ensures representative scanning and that effects from sample heterogeneity are reduced.
 AgriTubes are available in smaller size which is ideal for analysis of dried and grinded samples. This means that the AgriQuant B8 is the ideal analyzer for forage since it will analyze both dry and wet forage samples on one analyzer.
