FRTS series is a texture analyzer for food, evaluating sensory characteristics such as firmness, crispiness, crunchiness, softness, springiness, tackiness, etc.
For example, softness of bread dough, toughness of meat, crunchiness of cookies can be tested.
Features
FRTS quantifies texture in force to evaluate textural properties of food with very easy operation.
- Straightforward operation with user-friendly touch screen
- Wide array of preset testing conditions (by food item or standard) allows quick yet appropriate setting
- Included software allows easy data management and analysis
- Calibration certificate is optionally available (calibrated to force)
