Next Instruments CropScan - Model 3000B - Near Infrared Transmission Analyser for Grain Quality Assessment
The CropScan 3000B Near Infrared Transmission Analyser is a sophisticated tool crafted to assess various quality metrics in whole grains such as wheat, barley, canola, and more. This analyser is equipped with a Touch Screen PC, enabling it to measure crucial parameters like protein, moisture, starch, fiber, and oil contents. One of its standout features is a pour-through measuring cell with automatic pathlength selection tailored for different grain types. This ensures each analysis is optimized for accuracy. The system`s connectivity is enhanced as it can be integrated with the CropNet Grain Data Management software, allowing simultaneous data processing. Additionally, it supports attachments like a weighbridge monitor or barcode reader through USB connections for streamlined operations in load weighing and sample identification. All data can be posted online for remote access via smart devices, thus facilitating comprehensive grain management activities.
CropScan 3000B Near Infrared Transmission Analyser is designed to measure protein, moisture, starch, fiber and oil in whole grains of wheat, barley, canola, sorghum, oats, triticale, soybean, corn, rice, peas, beans etc. The built in Touch Screen PC provides a means of measuring a wide range of grain samples but also adding storage and quality information about the grains, including; Test Weight, Screening, Retention, Variety, Grade, Tonnage, Storage Location. The CropScan 3000B uses a pour through measuring cell that has an automatic pathlength selection for each grain type. Once the product has been selected, the CropScan 3000B adjusts the pathlength of the measurement cell to provide an optimum scan. The CropScan 3000B can be connected to a second screen where the CropNet Grain Data Management software runs in parallel to the Cr3000B operating software. A weighbridge monitor can be connected to the Cr3000B via a USB port and cable, so that load weights can be taken automatically. Alternatively, a Bar Code Reader and a Scale can be connected to the Cr3000B USB ports for recording bag weight and sample ID as used in field trial testing. The CropNet software posts the data to the internet where it can be viewed remotely using a Smart Phone, Tablet or PC.
