The DairyQuant solutions are designed to deliver fast and accurate results for parameters commonly required in dairy process and quality control. The exceptional spectral performance of the DairyQuant solutions means that analysis of more special components is possible, e.g. salt which traditionally has been a problem to analyse with fast methods.  


The short analysis time combined with the cutting edge performance means that you will receive a fast answer enabling you to optimise your production and yielding more profit.  

The DairyQuant solutions are supplied with a powerful software package comprising InfraQuant QC software and Horizon QI spectroscopic software for the advanced user.


Experience and knowledge 

Through many years of working in the dairy industry, Q-Interline has obtained a broad knowledge about processes and operations in dairy product production. This makes Q-Interline a strong partner since we understand the needs and requirements of the industry and can supply the optimal analytical solution.      


On-line solutions 

In selected markets Q-Interline is offering a series of QPA systems for dairies. The on-line solutions of Q-Interline are based on leading FT-NIR technology combined with optimised sampling solutions. The QPA series are supplied with IP protection required for installation in the prodction area directly at the production line.

The QPA systems are continously monitoring key parameters in dairy production. The QPA series have systems available for the following dairy products:  

          • Milk and whey
          • Cheese milk
          • Butter and spreads
          • Milk- and whey powders


The QPA systems will provide information about your production in real-time. The QPA systems will track the process more precisely and improve the possibility of more refined process control and hence higher profits. Especially in high volume production the investment of on-line solutions will have a very short return on investment.

The analysis of salt is attracting increased attention. So far it has been difficult to analyse salt With high enough accuracy with fast methods like NIR. The cutting edge spectral performance Of the DairyQuant B3 now makes it possible and you can get rid of time consuming and cumbersome traditional analytical methods for salt analysis.

Within less than a minute the DairyQuant B3 will provide you with the content of your cheese with regard to Fat, protein, moisture, salt, pH and fat in dry matter.

Sampling

The cheese sample is grinded, placed in the petri dish and analysed by reflection measurements. The petri dish is rotating during the analysis, ensuring representative sampling and that effects from product heterogeneity are reduced.

The petri dishes used for the analysis can be made of either glass, plastic or Teflon depending on local requirements. Teflon is especially suitable for production sites where glass and plastic are not allowed on site.


Software

The DairyQuant B3 is supplied with a powerful software package consisting of InfraQuant Operator Software and Horizon QI spectroscopic software.

InfraQuant QC software is combining user friendliness with high level of data security.  The Operator is guided through the steps of the analysis sequence, in most cases in native language. This ensures that standard operating procedures are followed and that consistent results are obtained independent of operator skill level and experience.

Results of the analysis are presented with clear figures with integrated color codes. The color codes reflect the validity of the results measured against preset criteria.

Horizon QI spectroscopic software offers a series of powerful spectroscopic tools for the advanced user. Horizon QI is used to verify the performance of your system and for troubleshooting. The Horizon QI Advanced Instrument Health will tell you the status of your system with more than 50 values tagged every Second.

The advanced user can collect, view and manipulate spectra in Horizon QI for optimization and R&D purposes. The Horizon QI software can be extended with further functionalities through a series of add-on modules.   


Workstation

The DairyQuant B3 comes with an external workstation which eliminates the disadvantages of build-in Computers. Upgrading and replacement is easily performed on-site reducing the potential downtime  of the equipment to a minimum.

With the external computer it is possible to connect a series of accessories like touch screens, label printer, barcode reader etc. offering the user maximum flexibility.


Low cost of ownership - Save on expensive maintenance contracts

The DairyQuant B3 has no scheduled maintenance. The light source has an expected lifetime of 10 years and the laser is solid state maintenance free. This will enable you to save the cost for Expensive maintenance contracts   

The DairyQuant B3 uses no chemicals and the petri dishes used for the analysis can be cleaned and reused many times. This will keep the cost per analysis very low.

Sampling

The sample is analysed by reflection measurements in petri cups, which are rotating during analysis. Rotating the sample will ensure representative sampling and that effects from product heterogeneity are reduced.

The petri cup is made from Teflon and can easily be brought to the churn in the production area, where there is a ban on glass and plastic. After the analysis the petri cup can be cleaned and re-used many times.
