Recently, the sales engineer of Labthink Instruments Co., Ltd received one special customization request from one customer, who is the manager of one cooked wheaten food manufacturer in Shandong, China. He is also one user of Labthink’s XLW(EC) Auto Tensile Tester for 2 years. This time, he asked for a special testing device to be used for dough cohesiveness test.
Dough cohesiveness test, which belongs to food texture test field, is really a fresh and challenging project for Labthink, a professional manufacturer in packaging testing industry for over 30 years. However, Labthink engineers took the challenge and finalize this project after studying the test principle, structural design and various testing accessories of many texture analyzers from well-known suppliers both in China and abroad. Now, Labthink’s auto tensile testers are equipped with one new feature i.e. food texture testing application.
Yes, please trust your eyes. From now on, fracturability of potato chips, hardness of chocolate, tenderness of sausage, hardness of butter, spreadability of cheese, hardness of bread, dough cohesiveness and stretchability, hardness, tensile strength at break and tensile strength of noodles and many other test items can be tested on Labthink’s XLW(EC) Auto Tensile Tester through customization services.
XLW(EC) Auto Tensile Tester is one multifunctional testing instrument that can be used to test tensile, tearing, shearing, peeling and compressive forces of plastic films and other packaging materials. With special customized sample grips, it can be also used to test the tensile force, cohesiveness, puncture force, elongation rate at break and other properties of food.
The capacity range of the load cell embedded in the instrument can be selected, 500N or 50N. The testing accuracy of the instrument is better than 0.5%FS, which guarantees the accuracy of test results. Five levels of test speeds (forward and backward) can be selected from 50mm/min to 500mm/min, which can meet the customer’s requirements for different testing conditions.
