Benefits of instrumental texture analysis Conversion of sensory tests to objective values: important test criteria such as freshness, crispiness, spread ability are determined objectively. Small deviations can be measured and shown in values. Standardization of testing methods (company standards) enable different production sites to achieve the same product quality. This is very important in highly automated production lines, and for suppliers of semi-finished goods, ingredients, and food systems. All of this helps to avoid complaints at the outset by improving quality and consistency of the products. The tests deliver reproducible results. All results can be shown and interpreted in a graph and documentation of all results is easy. Proper documentation of product quality simplifies negotiations between suppliers, processors, and customers
