Manufacturing & Supply Chain

Near infrared technology is well established as a favoured technique in many applications in dairy processes, both in production and laboratory environments. NDC Technologies provides in-process NIR moisture measurement solutions for quality and process control for dairy powder manufacture, enabling optimization of the drying process, to meet exact end-point targets.

NDC’s MM710e series of moisture analyzers is available in IP65, IP67 and ATEX certified formats with a choice of supervisor and operator interfaces as well as industrial Ethernet, fieldbus and analogue connectivity to provide convenient integration.

The 710e’s high resolution 125Hz measurement speed, proven stability and repeatability, and patented optical design ensure it is can be relied on for process control.

Users gain significant return on investment through closer control of the drying process and the avoidance of out-of-spec product. In addition to moisture, other parameters are also offered such as fat and protein. NDC provides solutions for:

* Whole Milk Powder

* Skimmed Milk Powder

* Lactose Powder

* Whey Powder

* Fat-filled Powder

* Infant Formula

* Casein.
