Product catalog summary
Introduction
The FoodScan™ Meat Analyser is a user-friendly instrument designed for routine analysis throughout the meat production process. Utilizing near-infrared transmission technology, it provides accurate results in just 50 seconds and is pre-calibrated with unique ANN calibrations approved for key quality parameters.
Sample Parameters
The analyser can handle any type of ground or homogenized meat sample, measuring parameters such as fat, moisture, protein, collagen, and salt. Additional parameters like ash, starch, pH, and carbohydrates can be measured with special calibrations.
Benefits and Efficiency
FoodScan™ is recognized for its speed and efficiency, used by over a thousand meat producers globally. It optimizes raw material use, standardizes production batches, and enhances laboratory operations, contributing to consistent product quality and brand recognition.
Cost-Effectiveness
The analyser offers rapid, low-cost tests, beneficial for controlling fat content in various meat products. It is ready-to-use, accurate, fast, versatile, easy to operate, cost-effective, network-ready, non-destructive, and capable of multiparameter analysis.
Approvals
FoodScan™ is the first NIR analyser for key control parameters to receive official method status by AOAC, AQIS, and Polska Norma, making it valuable for laboratories requiring approved methods.
Technology
The technology is based on Near Infrared Transmittance (NIT), which provides higher accuracy for inhomogeneous products. The ANN calibration covers a wide range of meat products, reducing calibration costs and maintenance.
Specifications
The analyser operates within a measuring range of 850 - 1050 nm, with high wavelength accuracy and precision. It is available in two models: FoodScan™ Lab and FoodScan™ Pro, each with specific dimensions, weight, and environmental requirements.
Standards and Approvals
FoodScan™ complies with CE labeling and directives for electromagnetic compatibility and low voltage. It is protected by several patents across different countries.

Technology The FoodScan technology is based on Near Infrared Transmittance, NIT, which is an advantage when measuring in-homogeneous products. The NIT-principle, where light is transmitted through the sample, is a major reason for FoodScan’s success. The NIT-principle secures a higher accuracy at analysis of meat, compared to methods, where the result is based on light reflected from the surface of the meat. The data (absorbencies at different wavelengths) generated by FoodScan are subjected to a mathematical function, a calibration model, in order to calculate the predicted value. • NIR Transmittance...
