TU/TM-2
Automatic calculations
The FTC Model TU Tenderometer and Model TM-2 Texturepress instruments will automatically calculate and update "peak" or highest force readings incurred during a test. The optional integral function automatically calculates the "area under the curve" or work performed on the sample.
Easy to use
Simply load the sample and press "RUN". The system will provide an easy-to-read digital display directly in Tenderometer units, pounds of force, or Newtons. Work measurements are displayed in either inch/pounds or Joules.
Durable, rugged and reliable
Designed to withstand harsh environments, both models will perform in harsh conditions with a minimum of maintenance operations. Plus, the units are easy to operate and almost no training is needed. FTC texture management systems have been in continuous operation in production environments for more than 25 years.
Profit and savings
Processors worldwide are using the Model TU Tenderometer to determine harvesting dates, "Buy on Grade," and predict finished quality. With profits at stake, a point or two off the standard can be very costly. Accurate readings can save thousands of dollars a day for a medium to large operation, and quickly pay back the initial investment. FTC offers a yearly calibration service to accuracy.
Standard features
Every unit comes with the 'Auto Cycle" one-button operation, the industry standard CS-l Kramer Shear Compression Test Cell and your choice of anyone model FTA load cell.
