For more than 40 years TEWS Elektronik has been supplying high precision moisture measurement systems to the tobacco industry. The ability to manage moisture in the production process helps to increase control from the incoming bale to the outgoing cigarette and is a considerable contribution to improve “Plant Efficiency”.

In 2020, a year dominated by Corona, sales of frozen food in supermarkets increased by 7.5%. So, what does frozen lasagne have to do with TEWS? More than you think! With our microwaves you can't heat the food (fortunately). But we measure the pre-cooked pasta before it is frozen to ensure that it always tastes great.

Saving 300 000 dollars a year? This is quite simply possible - and it is achieved by combining the two unique technologies of the market leaders Bühler and Tews.

TEWS can now measure the glue lines on paper, even when they are almost invisible. Measuring these lines is necessary in order to guarantee a high quality on your products.

Ventilex, a world leading company in drying and thermal treatment solutions, has a market share of around two thirds in the premium gelatin market. TEWS, market leader in industrial moisture and density measurement based on microwave technology, will support Ventilex with the development of the automatic control of their dryer based on the readings of the moisture sensor.

TEWS, the market leader for moisture and density measurement, now offers a solution for a 100% online inspection of cigarette filter capsules.

How can we make work processes even more efficient? With the Microsoft HoloLens2 we now use a mixed reality device that will help us work smarter in the future.

Our unique microwave technology is very well adapted and approved for the past 15 years by well-known R&D-Centres for the moisture measurement of hair switches.

Travel restrictions prevent us from visiting our customers and they prevent us from commissioning our equipment at the customer's premises as usual. However, they do not prevent us from looking for ways to put the equipment into operation remotely together with the customer.

In the current difficult times we are there for our customers in the US – even with a strengthened team.

Cerulean to exclusively market TEWS laboratory microwave products to the tobacco industry.

When fish feed is put into water, it should act in accordance with the feeding behavior of the respective fish. This means that it should either float on the surface or sink to the bottom. These characteristics largely depend on the fish feed’s density, which in turn defines the different types of fish feed:

The current development process being handled by Karsten Eisenhardt and Julia Podszuck promises considerable savings, more stable quality and greatly simplified use for machinery operators.

Fast and accurate measurement of the moisture content in food can save time and money. Too high or too low moisture is undesirable. This often leads to loss of quality and makes further processing of the intermediate product more difficult or even impossible. If the moisture content is known, drying times can be optimized. Improved quality and longer shelf life are the result.

For more than 25 years TEWS Elektronik supplies high precision moisture measurement systems to the tobacco industry. The company offers a wide range of instruments for the quality control from the incoming bale to the outgoing cigarette.
