New accessory for Perten’s NIR analyser

New transflectance cup for Perten Instruments' DA 7250 NIR spectrometer

Transflectance cup for Perten’s DA 7250 NIR spectrometer

Need an easy and accurate chemical analysis for juices, vegetable oils or other liquids? International Milling Directory (IMD) partner Perten Instruments has developed a new accessory enabling exactly that.

Perten’s DA 7250 near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) analyser was specifically designed for use in food and agriculture, discovering the chemical compositions of powders, pellets, liquids, pastes and slurries. Perten’s new Transflectance Cup is designed to minimise the need to handle liquid samples or clean the equipment between uses, and its gold-coated surface improves the quality of spectral transmission from the sample to its sensors.

Perten Instruments has been providing tools for chemical analysis and quality control since 1962. It is an active partner of the global agricultural industry, and, like IMD publisher Perendale Publishers, it will be exhibiting at the Grain Elevator and Processing Society (GEAPS) conference in Louisville, Kentucky on 23-26 February. The International Milling Directory team invites you to stop by and say hello to both stands.

MPE Chicago’s grinding technology is a blend of innovation and precision

The International Milling Directory (IMD) is always interested in its clients’ technology. Modern Process Equipment has over fifty years of experience in precision coffee grinding, and its machinery is industry-leading.

As anyone who’s brewed a cup of coffee can tell you, flavour extraction is a tricky art to get right.

Brewing with capsules, pods and pads has become a significant business in recent years, and with this change in delivery comes a change in grinding. A traditional brew takes four minutes for flavour to be extracted from the coffee particles. With a coffee pod it takes 20 seconds.

To extract flavour this quickly requires incredible precision in manufacturing. Too coarse, the particles are too large and 20 seconds will produce a weak, tea-like brew. Too fine and you get the opposite problem, a bitter and unpleasant taste.

Grinding these beans is like walking a tightrope: the key to success is in balance and control. Walking in a straight line is not particularly difficult, but doing so on a rope 40 feet off the ground needs all a specialist’s skill and precision. MPE grinders provide the proper balance between coarse and fine coffee particles, while achieving the right density for the perfect single cup brew.

With the MPE family of capsule grinders, users can actively monitor and adjust roll position, temperature, density and output rate, all in real time. The superior technology of MPE grinders provides the precision needed to walk the tightrope, every morning.
