Texture Technologies helps precisely quantify a wide variety of physical parameters of virtually every type of food product. Hundreds of companies and universities use SMS' instrument to quantify the firmness, toughness, cohesiveness, springiness and resilience of meat products and meat ingredients. The instruments are extensively used throughout meat companies' manufacturing facilities, their research & development facilities, and in academic settings.
Stable Micro Systems’ Texture Analyzers have been the most popular texture measurement instruments in the meat industry worldwide over the last seventeen years. Their popularity is due to the ever-growing number of probes, fixtures, test methods and available applications for every food product imaginable. Foods which are tested with the instrument range from extremely soft gels (such as pectin, gums, stabilizers, colloids, hydrocolloids, agars, carageenan, surimi, protein gels, etc.) to the extremely hard and tough meat products. In fact, several major manufacturers standardize their worldwide quality control testing using the TA.XTPlus, TA.HDPlus, and TA.XTExpress because of their reliability and ease-of-use.
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. Some of the many parameters that our product testing equipment can analyze include shearing strength, firmness, consistency, cutting strength and other properties.
