HP609 The meat tenderness tester

The meat tenderness tester simulates the chewing effect of human teeth on muscles and various foods, measures the shear value between muscles and food samples, and displays the measurement results numerically, expressing the tenderness of the food. The muscle tenderness meter can quickly measure muscle tenderness, and can also measure physical parameters such as tenderness and hardness of fruits, vegetables, and flour products, providing direct data for meat quality analysis and livestock breeding. It is an ideal testing equipment for food manufacturers, quality inspection, commercial inspection, universities, scientific research and other departments. This machine is also known as a meat shearing force tester, meat shearing tester, and physical property tester

Principle of meat tenderness tester: Tenderness refers to the shear force required for cutting meat. Shear force refers to the force used by the cutting tool of the testing instrument to cut through the tested meat sample. Record the force exerted by the cutting tool when cutting meat samples through measuring instruments and sensors, and use the measured peak shear force (maximum force) as the tenderness value of the meat sample.

Tenderness is an important indicator for evaluating the physical properties of meat products, which reflects the structural characteristics of various proteins in meat, the distribution status of fat in muscle, and the amount of fat in muscle fibers.

The execution standard for meat tenderness tester: NY/T 1180-2006 NY/T 2660-2014、NY/T2793-2015

Determination of meat tenderness - Shear force method

Characteristics of meat tenderness tester:
