From raw materials to final products: Applications of FT-NIR and XRF in Feed Production
Join us for an informative webinar event
Animal feed quality is not only a vital matter of animal welfare. It is also essential for food quality and safety – being the key to growth and health, and thus to the economic success of the entire agricultural industry.
In this Webinar event, Cargill Animal Nutrition and Bruker will talk about two complimentary, non-destructive technologies which enable comprehensive composition analysis for organic and inorganic constituents: near infrared (FT-NIR) and X-ray fluorescence (XRF).
We will discuss the benefits for FT-NIR and XRF for various applications, ranging from raw materials ID and analysis to quality control of pre-mixes, feed supplements, and finished feed.
This webinar event will consist of two parts
Part 1 (60 Minutes):
Perfect Teamwork: Comprehensive Feed Safety and Quality Assurance by combining the power of FT-NIR and XRF technology
Keynote: Rapid analytical methods in feed evaluation
Q&A Session with Alessandro Stercoli, Andreas Niemoeller, and Adrian Fiege
Part 2 (60 Minutes):
Live-from-the-Lab: We will analyze samples on the TANGO FT-NIR spectrometer and the S2 PUMA Series 2 EDXRF spectrometer and discuss the results
Q&A Session with FT-NIR and XRF application specialists
