Apr 11, 2024 | News

Today, April 11th, is National Pet Day! This month, we are highlighting our ChemWiz-ADK™ NIR Feed and Pet Food Analyzers. Our Pet Food Analyzer, consisting of combined hardware and software calibration packages, can help you improve consistency and quality of your product during pet food manufacturing. Analyzing parameters such as protein, fat, moisture, and ash in your raw ingredients and final Pet Food blends will help reduce your cost and improve the quality of your pet food products. Our ChemWiz-ADK-PF (Pet Food) can be configured as handheld, process-line or lab mountable, or a rugged case NIR and can​ be transported between pet food processing and lab environments. It’s non-destructive and high speed sampling (several seconds per scan) ensures fast and low cost analysis whenever you need it. Become your own lab today!

Starter Pet Food Kibble Blend Packages

Included with your system is our starter Pet Food Kibble Blend Calibration. This calibration model predicts fat, moisture, protein and ash in a typical pet food kibble blend. The calibrations were generated using over 30 different kibble blend samples varying in composition and has an estimated error of prediction less than +/-1% when measuring similar samples. It is the perfect calibration to get you up and running measuring composition of kibble blend samples.
Additionally, the system includes a starter Chicken Feed Calibration. These calibration models predicts fat, moisture, protein, and ash in these feed samples. The calibrations were generated using over 30 different samples varying in composition and have an estimated error of prediction less than +/-1% when measuring similar samples. It is the perfect calibration to get you up and running measuring composition of chicken feed.
