Trantec has introduced a new auger‑based sampling system designed to improve quality control in industries handling powders, granulates and other free flowing solids.
The system provides contamination‑free, repeatable sampling for hygiene‑critical sectors such as food processing, pharmaceuticals and chemicals.
The sampler is engineered to extract representative product samples directly from process lines, hoppers or conveyors without interrupting production. Its auger mechanism ensures consistent material capture across a wide range of particle sizes, from fine powders to coarse granules and pellets.
Trantec highlights that accurate sampling is essential for verifying product uniformity, moisture content, particle distribution and compliance with regulatory standards. The system’s enclosed design reduces dust emissions and protects operators, while its modular construction allows easy cleaning and rapid changeover between product types.
The company expects strong demand from European processors seeking to strengthen in‑line quality assurance and reduce waste associated with inconsistent sampling.
The new system forms part of Trantec’s broader portfolio of powder‑handling technologies, including feeders, conveyors and dosing equipment.
