Tobacco leaf texture tester
1、 Background introduction of tobacco leaf tester
Tobacco leaf is the raw material of cigarette production
Its physical characteristics have an important impact on the storage process, tobacco processing, cigarette formula design, etc
it is the key evaluation index of tobacco leaf quality, processing properties and economy
The mechanical properties of tobacco leaf is not only one of its main physical properties, but also an important basis for judging the processing resistance of tobacco leaf
In order to make the processing resistance of tobacco leaves reach the state, it is necessary to study the mechanical properties of tobacco leaves
At present, the research on the mechanical properties of tobacco leaves mainly focuses on the correlation analysis between the tensile force, tensile strength, crushing resistance index and the quality of tobacco leaves
With the continuous improvement of cigarette processing technology, the testing methods of tobacco mechanical properties such as softness, adhesion, penetration, shear force and texture characteristics can be established by texture analyzer, which enriches the content of tobacco mechanical research
2、 Product introduction of Baosheng tobacco leaf tester
Baosheng tobacco leaf tester, also known as physical property tester, mainly tests and analyzes tobacco leaves and tobacco by simulating human touch
It is an accurate sensory quantitative testing instrument
Baosheng tobacco leaf tester is simple and scientific in operation, free from human factors and high in detection sensitivity
It can not only make a data representation of the main physical characteristics of tobacco leaves and tobacco, but also effectively explain the physical property changes of samples during storage, transportation and processing
3、 Application of Baosheng tobacco leaf tester physical property tester in tobacco leaf:
Baosheng technology tobacco leaf softness test: the softness of tobacco leaf is significantly related to the appearance quality, physical properties and chemical components of tobacco leaf, which can be used as an important basis to judge the quality of tobacco leaf; The softness of tobacco leaves was positively correlated with color, oil content and chromaticity, and negatively correlated with maturity, leaf structure, identity and total score
Baosheng technology tobacco adhesion test: Tobacco adhesion mainly refers to the ability of macromolecular substances such as viscous liquid or semi-liquid lipids spilled from tobacco cells to adhere to the tobacco surface
The adhesion of tobacco leaf is closely related to its moisture content and ambient temperature, and increases first and then decreases with the increase of moisture content and ambient temperature
The analysis of the relationship between the adhesion of tobacco leaf and its moisture content and ambient temperature can provide data support for the setting of moisture and temperature during threshing and redrying
The higher the oil content of tobacco leaves, the more sufficient the oil content
Some studies have pointed out that there is a positive correlation between the oil content of tobacco leaves and the quality of tobacco leaves
Baosheng technology tobacco brittleness test: it can provide data support for the crushing of tobacco in the process of processing
The greater the brittleness is, the lower the crushing resistance is; The smaller the brittleness is, the harder it is to break;
Baosheng science and technology tobacco tensile force detection: the tensile force of tobacco leaf can reflect an important indicator of the toughness of tobacco leaf, which is closely related to the maturity of tobacco leaf
The tobacco leaf with good maturity has greater penetration and tensile force, better flexibility, and better beating resistance;
Baosheng science and technology tobacco leaf strength detection: the shear force of tobacco leaf reflects the loose degree of tobacco leaf structure, which is closely related to the thickness of tobacco leaf
The thicker and tighter the tobacco leaf, the greater the shear force;
Baosheng science and technology tobacco texture detection: the tobacco texture indicators mainly include hardness, cohesion, chewiness and recoverability
Among them, hardness can reflect the firmness of tobacco leaf; Cohesion reflects the resistance of the sample to the second compression after compression, that is, the resistance of the mesophyll or main vein of tobacco leaves to damage and the structure remains intact; Chewability reflects the continuous resistance of tobacco leaves to chewing; The resiliency reflects the resilience of tobacco leaves; Tobacco leaf texture is closely related to its organizational structure, morphological structure, internal components and availability, and is an important component of quality evaluation
