Texture Analyzer HSC-TA – 1 N to 500 N, Food, Pharma and Cosmetics
Price on Request
Texture analyser for food, pharma, cosmetics and materials: interchangeable 1–500 N load cells, ±0.1% FS, 0.01–40 mm/s, compression/tension/adhesion tests, PC analysis software.
The HSC texture analyser measures how hard, springy, sticky, chewy or strong a sample is, by pressing or pulling it with a probe and recording force, distance and time. It uses interchangeable load cells from 1 N to 500 N (up to 5 kN optional) with ±0.1% FS accuracy, a programmable 0.01–40 mm/s drive, and PC software that calculates hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess and chewiness.
Why labs choose it
- Many tests in one machine. Compression, tension, relaxation, adhesion, bending, fracture and bloom tests.
- Accurate. ±0.1% FS, 0.001 N force and 0.001 mm distance resolution.
- Programmable speeds. 0.01 – 40 mm/s for pre-test, test and post-test.
- Software analysis. Real-time graphs and automatic texture parameters.
- Stable frame. Rigid stainless-steel frame with anti-vibration design.
- Safe. Overload protection, emergency stop and automatic return.
