MILK STANDARDIZATION

OPTIMIZE YOUR RAW MATERIAL USAGE A common goal for milk standardization is to make the best use of raw materials and ensure that final products are as close to target specifications as possible, in terms of fat, protein and total solids. In this way, yield and profit can be improved with confidence while always meeting quality and legislative requirements. In-line process control allows yet more value to be gained from NIR analytical technology. By measuring directly in the process and getting results every few seconds, process variation of key parameters such as protein and total solids...

YOUR PASSPORT TO IN-LINE PROCESS CONTROL The ProFoss™ 2 solution builds on the success of the original ProFoss solution by exploiting the latest advances in analytical technology such as instrument calibration, connectivity for data sharing, probe design, full integration with a benchtop analyser such as MilkoScan™ FT3 for reference analysis and much more. With ProFoss 2, dairy producers can benefit from in-line NIR process analysis with the highest level of analytical performance across their production and quality laboratory setup. Achieve complete control of your milk standardization...

CONTROL YOUR MILK STANDARDIZATION USING REAL-TIME ANALYSIS ProFoss™ 2 provides real-time analysis results enabling you to react immediately on process changes and significantly reduce your process variations. Move fat, protein or total solids targets closer to product specifications and increase yield, profit and quality. A high frequency of results ensures that nothing gets missed and that you will always have a precise picture of any fluctuations in the process. The ProFoss 2 lateral transmittance probe enables penetration deep into the product, allowing a larger product presentation to...

PROFITABLE MILK STANDARDIZATION The reliability of measurements of fat, protein and total solids across all units and production lines is assured with standardized instruments that all measure the same. A standardized analyser with transferable calibrations significantly reduces the implementation and maintenance costs for in-line process control. The high uniformity standards and robust design of the latest generation ProFoss™ 2 solution ensures that the same calibration can be used on multiple instruments which measure the same product. This also ensures that only minimal updates to...
