IntroductionThe LactoScope 500 is an FT‑IR analyzer for laboratory and production testing of milk and dairy products. It combines FT‑IR spectroscopy with an integrated homogenizer and a robust optical system to deliver fast, accurate and repeatable measurements of fat, protein and total solids across multiple dairy matrices.
Key Features- FT‑IR (Fourier Transform Infrared) analytical technology
- Integrated homogenization for consistent sample preparation
- Robust optical design suitable for production and laboratory environments
- Intuitive user workflows for operators and lab technicians
- Fast, accurate and repeatable results for routine QC
- Supports liquids and reconstituted powders (milk, cream, milk powders, etc.)
Applications- Routine quality control and in‑line/at‑line production testing
- Measurement and monitoring of fat, protein and total solids in milk and dairy products
- Process control to reduce variability and improve yield and consistency
