The characteristics of the DA 7200 NIR analyzer make it ideal for a wide range of applications. Grains, pellets, pastes, powders and liquids are all analyzed in only 6 seconds.
Below are examples of applications the DA 7200 is used in. Please contact us to discuss your application.
Feed milling
- Improve your least-cost formulations through rapid analysis of raw materials
- Optimize fat, protein and moisture in your process and save money
- Avoid customer complaints and costly take-backs by making sure your finished feeds meet the specifications.
Oilseed crushing
With the DA 7200 you can determine moisture, oil, fatty acids, protein and other parameters in oilseeds, meals and oil. Use it at intake to pay the right price for seeds, optimize extraction, drying and degumming, and test your products for compliance with specifications.
Seed breeding
The accuracy and speed of analysis make the DA 7200 ideal for seed breeding companies and institutes. Thousands of samples can be analyzed in a very short time, and temporary personnel can be trained to operate the instrument in no time. Several of the leading institutes and companies worldwide use the DA 7200, both for analysis of basic parameters such as protein or oil content, and for high value specialty characteristics such as fatty acid composition or amino acids.
Ethanol production
Many ethanol producers have been able to increase output and lower costs thanks to the DA 7200. Raw materials, fermentation samples and by-products are all analyzed in just a few seconds. Instead of waiting half an hour for HPLC results you can get an instant analysis of HPLC parameters in fermentation samples.
Corn milling
The flexible sample presentation of the DA 7200 makes it possible to analyze both the corn and nearly all end-products of wet as well as dry milling. Germ, gluten, grits etc. All are easily analyzed in the same sample dish. Just pour the sample, place in the instrument, and 6 seconds later you have full compositional information.
Dairy
Cheese, butter, cream and powders are all analyzed with no sample preparation and no clean-up after analysis. Using the disposable cup system, the sample is simply placed in a plastic cup which is disposed of after analysis. This makes the DA 7200 extremely rapid and easy to use. Its accuracy makes it possible for you to control production to very tight limits.
Other Food
The unique sample presentation and the speed of analysis make the application possibilities nearly limitless. Snackfoods, breakfast cereals and meat products are just a few examples of products where the abilities of the DA 7200 bring great benefits compared to other existing NIR instruments.
