100,000 scans with NIRGO: mobile NIR analysis in practice

Direct insight into nutritional values and quality parameters

NIR analysis makes it possible to assess products quickly and efficiently for key nutritional values and quality parameters. This includes, for example, analyses of raw materials, animal feed and other products within the food, feed and agri sectors.

With NIRGO, this process is simple:

1. select the right calibration model;
2. scan the product with the BUCHI ProxiScout™;
3. get direct access to reliable data via the NIR-Cloud.

This enables quality managers and employees to make faster decisions about product quality, consistency and compliance. The method is therefore particularly suitable for situations where speed, ease of use and reliability come together.

Used worldwide in quality control

NIRGO is now used in 77 countries. In addition, calibration lines are available for 400 parameters. This broad scope of application makes the service suitable for a wide range of products and sectors, including animal feed, raw materials and livestock feed solutions.

The strength of NIRGO lies not only in the portable measurement itself, but especially in the combination of instrument, calibration lines, data processing and expert support. The measurement results are made available via the NIR-Cloud, giving users rapid insight into relevant nutritional and quality data.

Supported by the BUCHI ProxiScout™

The BUCHI ProxiScout™ is a portable NIR spectrometer developed for measurements outside the traditional laboratory. The instrument is robust, practical to use and suitable for on-site measurements. In combination with NutriControl’s validated calibration lines, the ProxiScout™ forms a strong basis for mobile quality control.

For users, this means they can respond more quickly when assessing incoming raw materials, monitoring processes or evaluating products. Instead of relying solely on laboratory analyses, mobile NIR analysis provides a rapid indication that enables immediate action.

NIR-Cloud as the central link

The NIR-Cloud plays an important role within NutriControl’s NIRGO service. Through this platform, users gain access to their measurement results, support and calibration line updates. The NIR-Cloud also helps keep calibrations up to date and ensures that data is available in a clear and structured way.

This means the service goes beyond simply providing a portable instrument. NutriControl supports customers with expertise, model development, updates and advice. New calibration lines can also be developed for unique products or specific applications.

More than 25 years of experience in NIR development

NutriControl has been working on the development and application of NIR analysis for more than 25 years. This experience forms the basis for the calibration lines used within NIRGO. By combining laboratory expertise with practical application in the field, NutriControl helps customers gain faster and better insight into the composition and quality of their products.

Reaching 100,000 scans underlines the growing role of mobile NIR analysis in quality control. For NutriControl, it is above all a confirmation that practical, fast and reliable analysis methods are becoming increasingly important in customers’ daily operations.
