Moisture and density – key parameters affecting product cost and quality.
Modern industry is constantly seeking the combination of product quality, optimal control of production processes and production cost savings. In industries based on process control of organic and inorganic bulk materials, moisture and density are key factors that affect line yield and product’s cost and quality.

Today, global standards in these industries have two main demands: consistent PQC (product quality and control) that is independent of disparate material sources and production locations; and online TVM (total volumetric measurement) information systems.

The ability to successfully control moisture and density levels during production processes has a direct impact on the ability to achieve excellence, optimize production, reduce wastage and increase profits. It is relevant throughout the entire process, from raw material to finished product, as engineering departments and process control teams demand accurate and immediate data, and managers must keep track of operations in real time.

Trends in Moisture and Density Market
The moisture and density measurement market is currently defined by the following major trends:

• On-site mass volume quality control
• Remote control of distributed systems
• Precision measurement and analysis
• Remote diagnostics and process understanding
• Sophisticated display of process parameters
• Online management process comprehension
• Real time process control monitoring and closed loop capabilities

(in industries that have replaced random sampling and manual/in-line inspection and measurement procedures with automated infrastructures)
