Industrial Measurement Equipment

Sampling is the process of aseptically drawing a sample from the process for analysis, without disturbing the bioprocess itself. The bioprocess needs to be carefully controlled by measuring important process variables and parameters. These parameters include pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen, foam/level, and agitation. The controllers use PID or auto-tuning adaptive control to measure and regulate the process parameters. The choice of a suitable controller depends on the identification of critical process variables.

Biotech sampling and control

Research and development work often requires the production of small and ultra-small batches. Laboratory mills allow limited production of experimental batches without the need for interrupting work on production machines. Typical applications of laboratory mills include new product development, process improvement, and quality control work. The choice of a suitable laboratory mill depends on your milling technique requirement, the batch size range, and the nature of the product that needs to be processed.

<p class="filterable-grid__description">Liquid dosage forms are designed for easy absorption. The body quickly carries the active ingredients through the system and triggers the required response. But the greatest advantage of this medicinal type is its flexibility in formulation and dispensation. From lotions and syrups to drops and sprays, liquid solutions can be adapted to different administration routes including parenteral, topical, and oral. The fundamental liquid dosage manufacturing process involves dissolving or suspending solutes in a fluid. But that is not enough. A precise blend of excipients is needed to make the medicine go down.</p>

Liquid dosage forms

Pharmaceutical powders provide longer shelf life and better stability than liquid dosage forms. But the processing of pharmaceutical powders is crucial for growing segments besides pharmacy. Functional foods and cosmetics formulated with active ingredients and excipients depend on powdered forms to fulfill their promises.

Industrial inspection equipment is used for checking compliance with health, safety, and quality control standards. For that reason, inspection systems are most commonly utilized in the food and pharmaceutical industry but, they are also used in other industries too. Inspection solutions are often integrated into a production process or production line. Visual inspection systems perform checks to detect variation in size, shape, and color and ensure the presence of labels and closures. Check-weigh systems help ensure that product packages are not under or over-filled. Metal detection systems can help guard against the presence of foreign objects in product containers and X-ray inspection equipment is used to detect physical defects and to ensure high quality package seal integrity.

Inspection

Labels provide customers with important information about both your product and your brand. Different labeling technology attaches the printed film to the packaging using a range of methods such as shrink wrapping, side sealing, and adhesives. For added traceability and protection, you may also use serialization coding equipment and anti-tampering labeling systems.

Large volume seed producers require high-capacity grading equipment to separate the good seeds from the bad ones at a desired rate of production. The grading equipment must also be suitable for different kinds of seeds to have a wider product application.


<h2>Grading seeds through a moving inclined belt</h2>
The CRM-4400 Seed Belt Grader from Seed Processing Holland is a system that separates the good seeds from damaged or irregularly shaped seeds and other impurities. It is applicable for different kinds of seeds such as sugar beet, cabbage, radish, spinach, and others. The system is equipped with an inlet hopper, a vibrating feeder, and three moving belts. As the seeds are fed to the inlet hopper, they go to the vibrating feeder where they are fed to the belts mounted horizontally with an inclination. The good seeds roll down the inclination and into a container; the irregularly shaped ones are conveyed by the belt to a separate container.

The system features an adjustable speed for the feeder and belt. The inclination of the belt can also be adjusted between 10 to 23 degrees to find the right angle for separation. Belts are available in white smooth type for seeds like cabbage and radish, or in black rubber type for seeds like lambs’ lettuce and beet for better visibility of the seeds’ quality. There is an optional transportable bag support for seed collection.

Seed Belt Grader

Industrial separation equipment encapsulates the separation process which is to separate components of a liquid mixture, for recovering dissolved solids from liquids. The choice of a suitable technology depends on the identification of the key physical or chemical property, such as size, mass, density, or boiling point, which sets the product of interest apart from the rest of the components. Separation technology is widely used in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries for the isolation of active ingredients and high-purity chemicals. As well as in waste management and recycling industries.

Separation

Sieving machines are available in various designs such as linear sieves, tumbler sieves, and vibrating sieves each employing a different sieving action. The choice of a suitable sieving machine depends on the desired particle size distribution, required amplitude and frequency of vibrations, and the physical state of the mixture. Sieving machines are used for removing dust from granular products and for grading grains. They are also used for the classification of granular material and the separation of solids from a slurry mix in the food processing industries.

Seeds coming from the same plant might have different sizes and shapes. The germination percentage of small seeds is lower than large(r) seeds. Larger seeds often have a higher germination speed than small seeds. For this reason, seeds have to be sorted according to their diameter before processing. For this, a seed sizing machine is needed

<h2>Accurately classifying seeds by diameter using an unbalanced calibration machine</h2>
The CCM-4900 Seed Calibration Machine sorts fine seeds according to their diameter size. The technology is designed by Seed Processing Holland and reaches a size accuracy degree of up to &lt; 3%, making it especially suited for breeding and seed foundation stations. The system separates all kinds of seeds uniformly into anti-static bins and calibrated seeds are separated into four fractions: three lower sizes and one upper size. This machine is slightly different to a gravity separator because it focuses on size/shape instead of weight.

The screen boat of the CCM-4900 holds two screens using a pneumatic clamping system with screen, while its unbalanced motors ensure silent operation throughout. The adjustable vibration function can operate at different time intervals. Meanwhile, integrated dampers prevent the transmission of vibrations to the frame. It is recommended to utilise this piece of equipment on a smooth and flat surface to further reduce any vibrations. Having said that, the dampeners do a great job at absorbing unwanted loud noises.

If you're running a processing plant and looking to maximise the output of any crop you might be growing then this will most help you achieve that. Furthermore, that applies to all crops that are grown from seeds including various types of vegetables, crops and hemp.

If you're growing crops in rows, then using the CCM-4900 will drastically improve the sorting process and allow you to use only the best seeds to ensure a successful harvest.

Classifying

Seed germination performance relies on factors such as seed type, cleanliness level, and in particular temperature. Having the right temperature promotes seed germination. Testing the seeds’ germination performance using one specific temperature at a time would take many trials and is a time-consuming task without the proper equipment. With a system that can test each type of seed in different temperature conditions simultaneously, you can save time finding the right germination temperature.

<h2>Testing germination performance in different temperatures simultaneously</h2>
The QGM-4300 Seed Thermogradient Table from Seed Processing Holland is a seed germination system that can apply different temperatures for each type of seed simultaneously. It is used in determining the optimum germination temperature and germination speed of seeds and seed pellets.

A digital display at the front of the table is provided for the temperature reading. The cooling and heating system can set temperatures between 5 degrees Celsius to 40 degrees Celsius in a room with an average ambient temperature of 20 degrees Celsius.

Thermogradient table for seed tests

Each variety of seed has its optimum growing conditions including temperature, lighting, and day and night cycle. If any of these conditions are not correct, the growth process can be compromised. For example, if heat is applied to the seedlings as it breaks the surface, germination can happen too quickly. Using a germination cabinet that lets you test the seed germination by adjusting the conditions accurately can help you understand how to prevent this from happening.

<h2>Applying Heat and Light for the Germination of Seeds</h2>
The QGM-4000 Seed Germination Cabinet from Seed Processing Holland is a seed germination system that can provide an ideal environment for germination process. The germination cabinet is suitable for performing germination tests in research and development. It can adjust temperature and humidity as well as lighting and day/night cycle.

Formulation technologies are an integral process in many industries such as pharma and food. Chemical mixtures require strict handling to combine the separate ingredients into the homogenized recipe that makes your final product. Formulation technology stores, mixes and subjects the elements to a range processing parameters according to your specifications to develop the base material. The resulting formulas are then weighed, formed, packaged, or sent for further formulation.

Formulation

Granulation

Milling machines are used to reduce the size of material by cutting, crushing, or grinding it. The choice of industrial milling equipment depends on the industry and the materials to work with. Besides, there is a significant difference between those aimed to remove layers from metal or other materials workpieces and those designed to reduce particle size for materials that come in bulk.

Milling

Pelleting equipment transforms powdered, mashed, or grounded material into a denser cylindrical shape. Pellet processing compresses the fine material against a perforated die, where it will be shaped and cut. Although granulating and extrusion also produce pellet-like products, manufacturing pellets is a distinct process.

Pelleting

Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) in the food industry is a technology that replaces the internal atmospheric air of a package with gasses in order to improve the shelf life of a food product. This makes the product last longer, improves its freshness and maintains the quality. In order to prevent problems with taste and flavour changes, an inspection machine is indispensable.


<h2>CO<sub>2</sub> escape detecting system to ensuring packaging sealing</h2>
LDS700-IoT is an inspection system designed by FTsystem that detects the escape of carbon dioxide by identifying sealing defects due to micro-holes. It is manufactured to check a wide range of products packed in bags and trays such as bread, flat bread, cheese, meat, vegan meat alternatives, salty brioche, salads, sea food or ready to eat meals. The machine is provided with two rollers that softly squeeze the entire package during its passage from the conveyor belt. If there is a leak, this overpressure contributes to the escape of gas. In an analysis chamber, suction devices check for gas that might leak from the package. If escaping CO<sub>2</sub> is detected, the system will reject the package. Since not all packages are the same, LDS700-IoT is suitable for a broad range of products in different shapes and sizes.

Inspection machine for MAP packaged food in bags and trays

For the preservation of food products, the packaging step in a production line is a critical stage to protect items from outside contaminations in order to maintain the shelf life of food products. To verify that everything is as should be at this step, an inspection machine to check for sealing defects is a widely used solution for those who want to prevent market complaints.


<h2>In-line inspection solution to check proper sealing of trays</h2>
SIS700-IoT developed by FTsystem is an inspection solution that analyses the welding area in trays to check for any defects. SIS700-IoT works with advanced cameras in which a non-visible light can detect organic residues that cause a discontinuity in the sealing line of trays. If the tray is not properly sealed, the system will reject the product. One important feature of this system is that trays can also be inspected when the plastic cover is already applied. When the light system and cameras analyse a tray, they eliminate all non-organic element from the acquired image, like the plastic cover, finding just organic elements. The detection is not affected by the closure or the container colours; there is no colour limitation, opaque, transparent, and semi-transparent containers can be inspected. SIS700 can be provided with two different versions. If containers are transparent or opaque, NIR (Near Infrared Spectrum) technology is applied, which is able to detect semi-transparent elements like fat or liquids in the sealing area. If containers are not transparent, visible spectrum wavelength is used, where the system is able to detect only elements with a visible contrast shape, such as piece of dough or breadcrumbs.

Incorrectly filled beverage containers can bring damage to a manufacturer brand or create legal disputes concerning distribution of non-compliant products. To prevent such problems, x-ray is a widely used and inexpensive technology that automatically detects overfilled or underfilled containers and rejects them during the production process.


<h2>X-ray solution to detect fill level in containers</h2>
To detect the fill level in containers, the CL600-RX designed by FTsystem is a good solution to measure product volume in a controlled area. As the name RX suggests, X-ray technology is used in this machine, but depending on the characteristics of product and container, high frequency (HF) and infrared (IR) technologies can be used as well. During operation, cans pass one by one under the RX system in which the emitter generates a beam of x-rays, called a ‘blade’, that passes through the can and the product. The product inside of it attenuates the range of the beam blocking it. The receiver detects the variation of X-rays, which allows the measurement of filling level. Unlike glass containers where the receiver can only detect the minimum level, in cans the x-ray ‘blade’ system can detect a maximum and minimum for an acceptable level. Foam cannot be detected neither in the glass container nor in cans. The RX technology can be applied to several types of containers such as glass, PET, HDPE, cans or Tetra Pak which can contain a wide range of products like oil, sauces, detergents, powders, water, soft drinks, juices, tea, beer, wines, spirits and more.

liquid

To ensure product safety, many beverage manufacturers invest in an inspection system to detect leaks and measure the total pressure. Preventing damage to glass or plastic containers is important when measuring pressure of carbonated products. Laser spectroscopy technology is a fitting option for this, with this technology, the machine does not need to touch the product during inspection.


<h2>Laser technology to detect internal pressure and leakages</h2>
FTsystem PCS700_CO2 is an inspection system designed to measure pressure in all type of containers, independent of their colour and closure, filled with products like water, juices, carbonated soft drinks, beer, or sparkling wines. The system is provided with laser spectroscopy technology that analyses the gas in the headspace of the filled and sealed containers. When the container passes through a sensor, the laser emits a beam, and the receiver measures this beam after it has passed through the headspace of the container. Based on the variation of the laser beam caused by the interference from the molecules, it is possible to measure the pressure. Containers that have an internal pressure that is above or under target limits are rejected. An important feature of TDLAS technology (Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy) is that detection is not affected by the closure or the container shape or colours; there is no colour limitation, even the transparent and semi-transparent containers can be inspected (only 5% of transparency is required). Furthermore, it is also possible to detect a defect in the cap when it is already applied to the bottle.

Inspection machine for carbonated drinks

For brand protection and to prevent legal disputes due to distribution of non-compliant products when it comes to fill level for beverages, an inspection machine allows to detect the final fill level in a container even in the presence of foam. With the rise of digital world and increased consumer awareness about standards that a product must have when it arrives on the market, even in the beverage industry the brand image is just a click away.


<h2>Inspection system for detecting fill level with high frequency technology</h2>
CL700-HF is a machine produced by FTsystem, that allows to detect the fill level of glass or plastic containers using high frequency technology. Water, soft drinks, juices, tea, beer, wines, spirits, milk and other conductive products are some of the products that CL700-HF can analyse, but according to the characteristics of product and container, x-ray (RX) and infrared (IR) technologies can be used as well. As the container passes through the sensor, the emitter generates a high frequency signal that the receiver detects. The signal goes through the liquid and the latter modifies the frequency of the signal. This frequency variation allows for the measurement of the filling level. Compared to x-ray technology, an advantage of high frequency is that it can detect the quantity of foam, measuring therefore the true filling level (after foam dissolving), it will not generate a false reject. The system measures the liquid level and the quantity of foam separately and after processing these two measures, the real filling level will be determined.

Inline fill-level control for beverages

Filling lines are used extensively in all industries, such as food, pharmaceutical, chemical, and cosmetics, to accurately package different products into a container suitable for that product. Although the filling process is at the very end of the production line, it is no less important than the earlier steps. Last but not least, the idiom that dates back to 1382 when John Wyclif wrote the firste the laste, and the laste the firste, indicates just that the last things on a list are just as valuable as the previous ones. In this case, this idiom fits perfectly.

Filling

To ensure product quality and freshness in the drink industry, capping is a very important step. Sometimes during the capping phase, products are rejected due to defective caps causing delay in the production line. To avoid jams along the line, it’s helpful to inspect bottle caps with a machine before they enter the capping process and not when they are being capped.


<h2>Artificial vision system to inspect cap quality before capping phase</h2>
QT730-VA is an inspection system for cap quality manufactured by FTsystem using artificial vision technology. The system is available in different configurations based on the caps to be checked. The artificial vision provides a high-level quality control thanks to industrial cameras that, with the help of direct analysis, gathers information about cap defects. In QT730, caps are introduced and positioned in the star wheel via the integrated chute. As the wheel rotates, caps pass one by one under the camera that analyses them. The camera is able to detect for example overturned caps, ovalization, deformation, security ring or sealing ring defect/absence and contamination. Based on the caps and the inspection, in the standard configuration more cameras could be implemented. This particular version is recommended for flat caps, for caps that have an irregular upper surface like sport caps and for shaped caps.

Inspection machine for bottle caps

Bottling equipment draws a measured quantity of your drink, food, or formulation from a holding tank and fills it into bottles. These bottles usually need to be checked, capped, labeled, and sealed for distribution. Bottling solutions differ in product metering system, sterilization level, and bottle type and sealing system depending on your production scale and product format and regulations. Bottling systems are utilized in a variety of industries. For example, in the food and beverage industry as well as in cosmetics and pharma.

Bottling

When looking for capping equipment, it is crucial to know first which type of capper your product requires. Do you want screw caps, twist-off caps, hand pumps, or push-pull caps on your bottle or container? If you require different cap types for format changeover times can be time-consuming. The bottle cap seals the top opening of a bottle to guard the product against leakage and spoilage and sterility and filling requirements depend on the nature of your product.

Capping

It seems logical to implement a quality inspection of bottles and spot any imperfections or contaminants before the filling process starts. Such an inspection machine will prevent unnecessary waste of the content of the bottle and avoid jams in the production line, this saves both time and money.


<h2>Accurate and complete inspection system for containers before filling</h2>

Biotech equipment is used for cellular and biomolecular processing to develop products that improve our lives and the planet. With the help of specialized lab equipment, the active substance is manufactured or extracted from biological origin materials and typically produced in bioreactors by plant cells, microbial cells, yeast cultures, or mammalian cells. Cell isolation, cultivation, cell banking, and culture expansion are called upstream processes. After harvest, the production process moves into a downstream process to meet purity and quality requirements which is divided into cell disruption, purification, and polishing. Biotechnology equipment makes use of various laboratory machinery such as bioreactors, centrifuges and incubators.

High capacity weight sorter for tablets &amp; capsules

In the pharmaceutical world, encapsulation refers to various techniques to enclose and protect the drug ingredients by forming the capsule shell. Encapsulation equipment changes depending on whether the manufacturer needs to produce a soft or hard gel capsule. For instance, encapsulation systems and machines for softgels control the entire process from start to finish because their shells are filled at the same time they are produced. On the other hand, the filling of hard gel capsules comes by separating the body from the cap, and after the filling operations, the two parts are sealed together again, forming the shell.
