Laboratory apparatus for quick fiber determination in citrus juice
Streamline your citrus juice production with precise screening and pulp measurement, ensuring consistent product quality and optimizing resource use.

Analyzes and Screens Citrus Juice Pulp
The Quick Fiber Device from JBT is a specialized laboratory apparatus designed to streamline pulp content analysis in citrus juice processing. Its silent, vibration-free operation, achieved with a counterbalanced eccentric on a sturdy cast base, ensures precise and replicable measurements of pulp and dryness. Ideal for citrus juice producers and food processing laboratories, it handles a variety of citrus fruits, including oranges, lemons, and grapefruits. The device includes a wall-mountable timer for convenience and full liquid recovery capability, making it efficient for laboratory settings. Though primarily for manual bench-top operations, its robust design ensures durable, long-term service without compromising measurement accuracy. While tailored for citrus applications, it supports broader beverage processing investigations where pulp content consistency is essential. The Quick Fiber Device requires minimal maintenance, allowing for straightforward cleaning and dependable operation, ensuring your laboratory is equipped for modern pulp analysis demands.
