FOOD TEXTURE ANALYZER TMS - PRO






The TMS-Pro is the flagship of the FTC line of food testing texture analysis instruments. When the application calls for precise force, position and speed control, the TMS-Pro is unsurpassed. The Pro was designed as an affordable alternative texture analyzer to the very high priced test systems offered by competitors. With a capacity of 2500 Newtons, (550 lbs.) in compression or tension, the TMS-Pro can handle the toughest applications. The system comes complete with the Texture Lab Pro (TL-Pro) software package and any size load cell of your choice. The TMS-Pro texture analyzer accepts the full and expanding line of FTC test cells including the industry standard, FTC Kramer Shear Cell as well as fixtures from our competitors. Best of all the TMS-Pro is backed by FTC's 40 years of food texture measurement experience, applications development and legendary customer service. FEATURES Intelligent load cells changeable in seconds High force capacity in compression or tension Unequalled data acquisition rates of up to 2000 readings per second Full range of test cells, probes and fixtures Portable, simple to set up and easy to learn Master and operator modes with password protection Powerful yet easy to use software for your PC Fully programmable for unlimited test designs Real time graphing and display Automatic statistical calculations TEXTURE PROFILE ANALYSIS (TPA) is fully automated with Texture Lab Pro Software for foods and materials to measure TENSILE STRENGTH, GEL STRENGTH, ELONGATION, HARDNESS, FRACTURABILITY, COHESIVENESS, SPRINGINESS, CHEWINESS, GUMMINESS, RESILIENCE, AND ADHESIVENESS. Applications Dairy Gels Fruits & Vegetables Meat & Fish Pasta Rice Snack Foods Pharmaceuticals Medical Devices Cosmetic Adhesives Packaging Top Load Test etc
Texture Lab Pro Software

	When used with the TMS-Pro load frame, the food scientist and researcher can now realize an unmatched level of precision, repeatability and ease of use. The TL-Pro software offers real-time graphic display so one can “see the test” as it is being run. A powerful instruction set support almost any test methodology you can think of. Cyclic test, Texture Profile Analysis (TPA), single stroke, etc. are all easily set up and executed. Test configurations are saved in a library for instant recall. With an unmatched loadcell data acquisition rate up to 16000 samples per second, high frequency data capture is no problem.
