At production site or packing area:

Ensure an optimized payment for raw milk
Measure several parameters simultaneously (e.g. protein,
moisture, fat, lactose, pH, cryoscopic index)
Establish a firewall against adulteration (e.g. melamine)

Rapidly quantify constituents in intermediate products

A Contribution to your Profit

The advantages of FT-NIR Spectroscopy become apparent in the quality control of cheese processing. With only optimizing one parameter you already gain an extra yield of at least 0.1% of cheese per year and furthermore you even earn extra profits of around 0.5 % per year.
