Quality Inspection Instruments
Quality control (QC) inspection tools measure the internal quality of produce. They use diffuse reflection, semi-transmissive and near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopic analysis technology to analyze growth quality and determine harvest times.
Quality Inspection Instruments for the Food Industry
Quality inspection tools are vital for the food industry, especially companies handling fresh produce. QA Supplies offers instruments to collect the following measurements:
- Brix: Brix testers, refractometers and produce quality meters test the soluble solids content of produce. These QC inspection tools help analyze the maturity level and sugar content of produce, revealing its potential sweetness without collecting juice samples.
- Dry matter: Quality inspection equipment tests for dry matter in various fruits and vegetables. The amount of non-water content reveals ripeness and flavor potential.
- Browning: Produce quality meters test browning so you can evaluate the freshness of produce and estimate how quickly it will deteriorate.
- Firmness: Firmness is another measurable factor that determines the quality and shelf life of produce. Texture plays a significant role in how consumers view the quality of fruits and vegetables.
With advanced quality inspection instruments, you can determine the best harvest times, optimize storage and transport and ensure produce reaches consumers at peak quality.
