Accurately detecting moisture, residual moisture, and mass or density in various non-conductive materials is essential to the pharmaceutical, food, packaging, and petrochemical industries to ensure outstanding product quality, reduce waste, and save costs. At All4Pack 2022 in Paris, WORK Microwave will showcase its leading sensor solutions at ADMC’s stand 5/A E 038. WORK Microwave can customize and integrate these solutions for individual factory needs and automated processing applications.
WORK Microwave to Showcase Advances in Product Weight and Moisture Measurement at All4Pack 2022
WORK Microwave will highlight the following solutions:
WORKsens FT-96 Pharmaceuticals Weight Measurement Sensor Demos
- At All4Pack 2022, WORK Microwave will demonstrate its WORKsens FT-96 pharmaceuticals weight checker, optimized for the weight characterization of capsules and tablets in continuous production systems. A data acquisition platform attached to the sensor head permanently monitors the resonator head for changes in product properties. This allows the sensor to detect if pharmaceutical tablets are fully intact or exhibit defects, with the option to reject under- or overfilled capsules or cracked tablets.The WORKSens FT-96 is a comprehensive solution for performing high-speed, vibration-insensitive weight checks on compact capsules, offering seamless integration in established production lines as well as the ability to harmonize with new digital Industry 4.0 concepts.

WORKsens CR — Contact Sensor Systems Demo
At All4Pack 2022, WORK Microwave will highlight the accuracy of the CR Series in measuring moisture on the surface and in the volume of the product being tested as it nears the front of the sensor, rendering it superior to other techniques such as surface limited optical NIR measurement. WORKsens CR in-line bulk moisture measurement sensors and CR-10HP for moisture, gas, and solid content in high-pressure fluids will be presented. Both sensors are capable of measuring the moisture content of powders, fluids, and other non-conductive chemicals.
- The WORKsens CR Series instantly measures the moisture in bulk solids and chemicals, allowing direct production process feedback, while requiring direct contact with the material being tested. The direct contact enables outstanding measurement accuracy in a variety of non-conductive materials.
- WORKsens CR-10HP High-Pressure Moisture Measurement Sensor is optimized for high-pressure environments up to 1000 bars measuring the water content in rough chemical synthesis processes. The CR-10HP moisture sensor offers high accuracy, speed, and repeatability while being insensitive to most non-conductive additives. This accuracy is made possible by the exact characterization of a resonator and the load change on it induced by the material’s water content.
