In the Food and Beverage industry, maintaining strict quality control is not just a requirement—it’s a necessity, says Gaurav Bawa, Senior VP, WIKA India
NEW DELHI, Aug 23 (The CONNECT) – WIKA India, a global leader in measurement instrumentation technology, will showcase a wide range of its measuring instruments , all of which are purposively adjusted to the requirements of the F&B industry, in the Anuga FoodTec 2024, from August 28 to 30.
Gaurav Bawa, Senior VP, WIKA India pointed out that in the Food and Beverage industry, maintaining strict quality control is not just a requirement—it’s a necessity. The machines that process, handle, and package the food products must be functioning fine, and provide accurate measurements so that at the end of the line, the final product is safe to use, of good quality, and consistent.
The measuring instruments from WIKA form the cornerstone in achieving these standards. This, in turn, helps in operating machinery without any breakdowns and gain accurate and reliable measurements for several variables being measured, like pressure, temperature, level, and force.
Here is a snapshot of the exhibits from WIKA:
- Pressure Measuring Instruments: Pressure is a parameter that is used during all food and beverage industry-related processes, from cooking to sterilization. WIKA pressure instruments guarantee the exact reading required in these processes so that processes like pasteurization and carbonation take place under optimal conditions, ensuring the quality and safety of the product.
- Temperature Measuring Instruments: Temperature control in the manufacturing and storage process is very critical for the food and beverage industries. The measurement solutions by WIKA provide exact temperature measurement solutions to ensure that every process, whether cooking, cooling, or storing, progresses at the right temperature. Our instruments help maintain flavor integrity and extend shelf life of the product by preventing spoilage and assuring consistency.
- Level Measuring Instruments: Accurate level measurement is indispensable for the inventory control of liquids and ingredients in storage tanks and production lines. WIKA-level instruments offer real-time monitoring, allowing manufacturers to maintain the optimal levels without any disruption in the production process. This helps in ensuring consistency, batch after batch during the production along with the efficient use of resources.
- Force Measuring Instruments: Force application is one such critical parameter for many in-process food production procedures, such as packaging and sealing. The force measurement solutions from WIKA blend precision with reliability to ensure that the applied force by machinery is accurate at the required time. This contributes to the integrity and safety of the final product.
Bawa said, his team is constantly involved in pushing its limits and understanding the exact client requirements so that the new products launched are in line with them. “We believe that Anuga would surely give us a chance to connect with the with the industry leaders,” he said.
