Fruits and Vegetables Texture Analyzer

The AGROSTA®Rose is a fruit and vegetable texture analyzer designed for both penetrometry (for crisp fruits and vegetables) and deflection measurement (for soft produce). Launched in 2023, the Rose is an essential tool for post-harvest laboratories, capable of analyzing almost any type of fruit or vegetable. It’s especially effective for non-destructive testing on an industrial scale, including avocados, cherries, tomatoes, blueberries, raspberries, and citrus fruits. Penetrometry can be used on firmer produce like apples, pears, kiwis, onions, and carrots.

Key Features:

  • Touchscreen, Bluetooth, and USB Connectivity: Fully autonomous with touchscreen control, capable of storing up to 50 batches in memory, and offering both Bluetooth and USB connectivity for data transfer to Android devices or Windows computers.
  • Non-Destructive Testing: Ideal for soft fruits, allowing rapid, damage-free analysis of cherries, tomatoes, and citrus.
  • Penetrometer Functionality: Suitable for crisp fruits like apples and pears.
  • Spring System: The innovative spring design holds fruit securely on the table during measurement without needing manual support.

Optional Durofel Module: The Durofel module adds flexibility for testing soft fruits and vegetables. It includes interchangeable tips (sizes 10 for nectarine, 25 for cherry, and 50 for strawberry) and a pressure-to-Durofel index correspondence table (0 to 100%).

Pricing:

  • Base model: €4250 (includes express worldwide shipping)
  • Optional Durofel module: €472
