Grain and Flour Analyzers Infratec NOVA and Infratec TM

 

Infratec NOVA and Infratec TM are advanced NIR analyzers for whole grain and flour, designed to deliver fast and precise quality assessment of cereals, oilseeds, legumes, and processed products.

 

Key Benefits

  1. High accuracy by analyzing the entire grain, not just the surface.
  2. Easy to use — minimal operator training required.
  3. Compact and lightweight — 30% smaller and easier to transport than previous models.
  4. Full backward compatibility — free transfer of calibrations from earlier Infratec versions.
  5. Stable results under any conditions thanks to built‑in stabilization technology.

 

Differences between Infratec TM and Infratec NOVA

  • Infratec TM does not support the Sample Transport Module (STM).
  • Includes 4 calibrations of the customer’s choice.
  • Wavelength range: 570–1100 nm (same as Infratec 1241), while NOVA covers 400–1100 nm.
  • Infratec NOVA features a tiltable tablet‑style display, while Infratec TM has a fixed 10” touchscreen.

 

Applications

  • Grain reception: wheat, barley, corn, oats, rye, rice, lentils, peas, and more.
  • Milling industry: wheat flour, semolina, soybean meal, rice and corn flour.
  • Oilseeds: soy, rapeseed, canola, sunflower.
  • Seed companies: small seed samples, tissue and color analysis.
  • Brewing and biofuel: barley, malt, wort.
  • Food industry: bakeries, pasta production, starch and beverage manufacturing.

 

Optional Modules

  1. Weight module for measuring bulk density.
  2. Flour module for analyzing flour and grits.
  3. Transport module for liquids and moist samples (available only for Infratec NOVA).

 

Choose Infratec NOVA or Infratec TM — reliable solutions for precise grain and flour analysis that boost efficiency and reduce operator errors
