METHOD AND APPARATUS CONTINUOUSLY MEASURING MOISTURE

摘要

PURPOSE:To continuously, accurately and easily measure the moisture content of an object to be measured. CONSTITUTION:A moisture measuring apparatus is equipped with a quantitative supply apparatus 2 continuously and quantitatively supplying an object 6 to be measured such as ground meat, a surface treatment apparatus 4 smoothly cutting the surface of the quantitatively supplied object 6 to be measured to remove the water film covering the cut surface and a sensor 5 continuously measuring moisture by applying light wherein an absorption wavelength is set to 1.20-1.25mum or 0.98-1.05mum and a comparison wavelength is made shorter than the absorption wavelength to the surface 6a of the object 6 to be measured formed by the surface treatment apparatus 4.
