Mecmesin FTA 2.5 Xt Food Texture Analyser

The Mecmesin FTA 2.5 Xt Food Texture Analyser is based on the Mecmesin MultiTest 2.5 Xt, a 2.5 kN test centre for tension and compression.

The FTA 2.5 Xt is controlled by a Windows 7 Tablet PC, directly connected to the testing centre to control the machine and capture the data. The FTA 2.5 Xt can be preprogrammed for routine testing and it is possible to select up to five of these tests as ‘favourites’, which allows operators to load their test with one press of the button, ready for testing.

In-depth and advanced routines can be programmed and the analysing part of the software enables in-depth analysis of food texture properties such as chewiness, firmness, hardness and softness of food products.

Special probes and fixtures, such as the Kramer shear cell, dough and gluten test cell and a variety of accessories are available for all food products.
