Lloyd Instruments has introduced a new penetration jig for use with its TAPlus texture analyser. The multiprobe jig simulates the action of a fork to eat fish and provides an alternative approach to probes such as the single cylindrical die and to shearing methods. Applications include the evaluation of the textural properties of fish fillets as a function of different freezing and thawing methods.

Firstsight Vision has added the MACRO VARON™ 85 mm f4.5 lens from Schneider Kreuznach to its optics portfolio. This new lens has been designed to improve the resolution and flexibility of advanced inspection systems using linescan cameras up to 12K with 5 micron pixels. Linescan systems are used for the high-speed inspection of continuously moving material, such as steel strip, paper and other uncut materials.

Rising energy prices have led to a growing interest in metering fuels and oils and a corresponding increased demand for fuel flow meters.

Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc announced today the Thermo Scientific Model 70 FTIR Multi-Gas CEMS, a single analyzer, continuous monitoring system capable of measuring up to ten gases or more for almost any incineration or co-incineration application.
