Kalsec black carrot and paprika extracts
03 September, 2010 | Columbit Australia
The recent carmine supply issues and resulting price pressures have manufacturers looking for natural alternatives to achieve red hues in foods and beverages. Carmine, generally, sold as 52% pigment is a water insoluble colour used in confections, dairy products, dry seasoning and baked goods to provide pink to red hues. The pink shade of carmine in these applications is challenging to match. Synthetic replacements are no longer an attractive option as the global market demand is driving towards clean and natural labelling in the food and beverage industry.
Pulsar Guard 2010 non-invasive process monitoring sensor
03 September, 2010 | Bintech Systems Pty Ltd
The Pulsar Guard 2010 sensor detects structure-borne acoustic signals caused by the movement of material. This movement causes impacts and frictional contact with a containing face, eg, the inside of a pipe. The sensor is fastened to the outside of the structure and its high frequency detection picks up these signals, which are often undetectable to the human ear. The high-frequency detection allows use in environments where there is a high degree of machinery noise or process noise, without interference. The sensor’s non-invasive nature allows easy fit to most pipes, chutes or feed mechanisms without stopping the process.
