Stylus profilometer for measuring surface height profiles on substrates, from hundreds of micrometers to tens of nanometers. Uses a needle probe to detect and calculate surface displacements.

In the fresh cut line, we mimic the production process as in industry, from harvested to packaged product. This fresh line is modular and units are easily movable. In this way, unit processes can easily be added or removed as required. Besides focusing on processing vegetables into a fresh product, the line is also equipped with a full monitoring system to monitor all consumption (water, energy). These are complemented by quality measurements present or they can be added based on requirements (both on water and product).

A process line for processing vegetables and potatoes from harvest to processed product, both fresh and frozen. This process line has a modular set-up with conveyor belts arranged in a movable way to flexible guide the product flow. In this way, the sequence of unit processes can be tailored to the prevailing demand as well as external equipment can be easily incorporated. In addition to the focus on processing, it is easy to link up with water treatment plants (present or to be brought in) and the line is equipped with a full monitoring system to map all consumption (water, energy). These ...

The focus here is on water research, for which we have a spacious pilot hall at our disposal with all the necessary facilities, amenities and flexibility. The space is designed in such a way that different pilot installations/zones can be set up at the same time.

The vegetable and potato processing industry consumes a great deal of water. We help companies innovate and use water more sustainably with a view to reusing process water and purified waste water. With an extensive storage system and pipe network (split into food and non-food grade), we can easily connect the process ...
