Food texture analysis instruments for measuring the properties of food ingredients such as spices, powders, and gels

Texture Analyzers and analytical instrumentation for testing and measuring the textural and physical characteristics of food ingredients.

Texture Technologies has been assisting ingredient companies face the unique challenge of helping their customers recognize and pay for the value-added development that they put into their products. Since it is very difficult to support profitable organizations based primarily on selling commodities, no ingredient company wants to simply offer a commodity product. In order to charge a premium for the services of world-class ingredient companies, manufacturers of food ingredients must deploy full-scale applications and formulation laboratories to support customers’ use of their ingredients. In order to stay ahead of the textural impact of their ingredients on consumer food products, many world-class food ingredient companies use Stable Micro Systems’ Texture Analyzers in their day-to-day research and applications development.

Many of R&D departments and Quality Control departments at food ingredient companies use our texture analyzers to conduct incoming quality control on the ingredients. Being able to precisely synchronize test methods is critical for achieving efficiencies and productivity when employees are far too busy to develop new texture test methods. Texture Technologies and Stable Micro Systems offers our clients test method development assistance to get them profitable and productive from the moment they purchase our systems.

The Stable Micro Systems’ family of texture analysis instruments is extremely easy-to-use and very flexible, providing accurate and reproducible ingredient testing results. The TA.XTPlus, TA.HDPlus, and TA.XTExpress Texture Analyzers are simple to calibrate and easy to validate. These Texture Analyzers are used extensively throughout the food ingredients industry in manufacturing facilities, research & development environments, and applications laboratories.

Most textural analysis parameters can be easily quantified with the TA.XT Texture Analyzers and Exponent software programs and some attributes can only be measured with our instruments. With regard to powder based products, some of the many parameters that our product testing equipment can analyze include flow, aeration, bridging, caking, cohesion, compaction and other properties.
