Texture Analyzer TVT 6700

Product catalog summary

Introduction
The TVT 6700 Texture Analyzer is designed for evaluating the texture of food products, offering a rapid, objective, and reproducible alternative to sensory evaluation. It measures compressive and tensile forces under controlled conditions to provide a complete texture profile.

Features and Benefits

Simple: A single model caters to the food industry's needs.
User-Friendly: Easy operation with a large library of standard methods.
Objective: Provides sensitive, accurate, and reproducible texture profiles.
Powerful Software: Offers comparison graph overlay, customizable analysis, automated statistical calculations, and flexible data export options.
Rugged: Suitable for both laboratory and production environments.
Versatile: Equipped with dual Load Cells for various tests, including hardness, fracturability, cohesiveness, and more.
Cost Efficient: Reduces the need for sensory panels.

Applications
The analyzer is used for quality control, formulation and process development, ingredient evaluation, and monitoring changes during storage and transport. It can simulate chewing and consumer handling.

Accessories
Includes cylinder probes, compression plates, spherical and conical probes, knife blades, wires, break probes, and clamps for various testing needs.

Evaluation of texture is often based on sensory evaluation and experience. The TVT 6700 texture analyzer is rapid, objective and more sensitive and reproducible than subjective sensory judgement. The TVT 6700 applies controlled conditions of stress or strain to food and other samples to measure a complete texture profile. It accurately measures compressive and tensile force and position over time using standard test modes including single and multiple cycle compression, tensile strength, compress-and-hold, extend-and-hold, fracturability and springback to describe product texture. Data is captured...
