Online moisture meter: PMD300

Optimize the moisture content of your products with the new online moisture meter. The PMD300 series have been designed for online, in-process analysis. Through the use of microwave resonance technology, the moisture content can be measured in less than one second.

The moisture measurement takes the core as well as the surface moisture into account. The moisture analysis is non-destructive and is not affected by the color, density or surface properties of the sample material. Depending on sensor type, the measuring range is between 0.1% and 60% moisture content. Please contact us. We have tested the system with many different products already.

More than a metal detector: X-Ray inspection

Metal in metal, glass in glass,the X-Ray inspection system is more than a metal detector. It can detect contaminants such as metal, glass, stones, bones and special plastics (PVC). Furthermore it can verifiy missing components, fill levels, dimensions, volume and weight. All this can be done in various packagings, including bulk products, cartons, plastic bags, metalized foils. We will find the right system for you.
