The Agrosta®DFT14 is a versatile firmness tester designed for noninvasive measurement applications, including udder firmness in dairy cows and hardness testing in chicken breasts. Widely used in both agricultural and medical research, the DFT14 has also been employed in scientific publications for soft-tissue firmness assessments in cosmetic breast surgery and breast augmentation procedures. Its design supports use as both a surface deformation tester and a penetrometer, making it suitable for measuring firmness in a wide range of materials, including cauliflower, lettuce, and other delicate produce.

Key Features:

  • Color Touchscreen: Intuitive interface for easy operation, batch naming, and sound adjustments.
  • Bluetooth Connectivity: Wireless connection to Android devices, with a free app for real-time data management.
  • MicroSD Data Storage: Stores data in Excel-compatible format, enabling detailed analysis.
  • Speech Function: Audible results in multiple languages for enhanced usability.
  • Ceramic Sensor Module: Ensures high accuracy, durability, and reliability in measurements.

The DFT14 has been validated as a dynamometer for udder firmness measurement in dairy cows (Bertulat et al., Freie Universität Berlin), and its use has been documented in cosmetic surgery for measuring breast tissue firmness and assessing capsular contraction post-surgery (Brown et al.). With applications ranging from agricultural quality control to medical research in breast augmentation and soft-tissue turgor measurement, the Agrosta®DFT14 provides the precision and versatility needed by professionals in diverse fields.
