Food Safety
Time at specific temperature is critical to render pathogens harmless. The SCORPION® 2 Data Logger, utilizing temperature sensors and product probes provides a solution for measuring environment temperatures and product core temperature.
Bread and Bun Profiling Solutions
Bread and Bun Profiling has various considerations. It requires specialized carriers and probes plus specific placement to produce accurate and repeatable results.
Quality Assurance
Record your processing conditions when your product quality is within specification. Save these profiles for future reference as “target” conditions. Use the SPC function included in the software to establish upper and lower control limits for your process temperature, air velocity, heat flux and humidity profiles.
Line Start-Up
Take a SCORPION® profile a few minutes before introducing product into a process. This is a good check that the process has reached the correct operating conditions before production is started.
Product Consistency Line-to-Line
Compare SCORPION® profiles for two process ovens, perhaps in different factories, that are supposed to be making the same product.
Commissioning & Maintenance
Heat process ovens usually include dampers and other controls that must be set by the installation engineer. Use SCORPION® to check that these have been set correctly. Repeat the profiles as part of your preventative maintenanceprogram to detect drift in zone conditions and to pin-point the cause of problems when they do occur.
Analyze Equipment Performance
Most oven manufacturers now use SCORPION® to design their heat processes. This is an invaluable tool for design engineers to balance heat and airflow across the width and along the length of the process oven.
New Product Development
Use SCORPION® to record the processing conditions you develop in the lab or in a pilot plant. Then, use SCORPION® again to establish the same conditions as the new product is transferred to a full-scale production line.
Optimize Across Product Lines
The SCORPION® 2 System enables procerss optimization for a wide range of products and production lines.
