The MilkoScan FT3 offers a new, intelligent approach to dairy analysis including the power to test a wide variety of liquid and semi-solid dairy products at a low cost of ownership, exceptional up-time and with unprecedented consistency of results.
One solution covers many jobs
Dairy analysis today is about more than milk. The MilkoScan FT3 helps you to adapt effortlessly to your analysis needs. The smart flow system can handle a wide range of products and auto adjusts to each sample. The MilkoScan FT3 offers the most accurate and comprehensive adulteration screening.
Consistency is the key to effective process control
Based on a patented automatic standardisation you can eliminate instrument drift and variation between instruments. This ensures consistent high performance and that multiple instruments can be managed in a master/satellite network, significantly reducing cost of operation.
Exceptional uptime made simple
With digital capabilities and unique intelligent diagnostic tools, MilkoScan FT3 provides a new level of assurance that includes unrivalled instrument uptime as well as fast and easy troubleshooting.
Sample types
Compositional analysis of liquid and semi-solid dairy products such as milk, cream, whey, yoghurt, chocolate milk, creme fraiche, milk and whey concentrates and more.
Applications
Platform control of raw material, milk standardisation, milk payment, screening for abnormalities, process control and optimisation and quality control throughout the dairy process.
Parameters
Global calibrations: Fat, protein, lactose, total solids, solids non fat, freezing point, titrable acidity, density, free fatty acids, citric acids, casein, urea, sucrose, glucose, fructose, galactose.
