In high-volume manufacturing operations including snack food, converting, chemical, wood products, and others, there are a select few but measurable paraments that can have a significant impact on final product quality at several points in the process. Moisture, oil (fat) content, and coat weight directly influence product-to-product variation, prompt additional operational/energy costs to the company, and ultimately cause excessive waste, especially if no parameter control measures are in place. Near infrared (NIR) technology is a trusted method to rapidly measure these parameters, but with rigors of operating in challenging manufacturing conditions, only few options exist. technology is a trusted method to rapidly measure these parameters, but with rigors of operating in challenging manufacturing conditions, only few options exist.

For some manufacturing operations, even a slight variation in a product’s moisture composition can cause significant quality control challenges. From gypsum processing, board manufacturing, and other industrial applications, many products have a tight moisture specification with little room for error.
Radio-frequency dielectric measurement (RF) technology is ideally suited for these types of applications. These analyzers introduce radio waves that penetrate an object to collect its complete moisture reading across a full sample thickness.
