Firmness-Measurement

Firmness-Measurement

Fruit penetrometers are used in agriculture to determine the firmness of fruit. Firmness, starch and sugar content are used to determine the ripeness index (i.e. according to Dr. Streif). There are analoge and digital penetrometers, handsets and automatic devices. (Source: wikipedia)

UP GmbH offers both manually operated, as well as motor-driven measurement systems for detecting the firmness, which can work both destructive and non-destructive.
