LactiCheck™ LC-02/RR RapiRead™ Milk Analyzer

The LactiCheck™ LC-02/RR RapiRead™ Milk Analyzer is a practical, reliable and affordable alternative to previously available options for milk composition testing, the rapid (40 second test time), real-time, reliable results and straight-forward simplicity bring the benefits of state-of-the-art technology to you today!  Robust and impressively precise, the LactiCheck™ LC-02/RR can be integrated at any point throughout the processing plant, from milk reception to production to final QC/QA.

  • Minimize the "sneaker network" by screening incoming milk at the receiving station or on the production floor. Gain more in-depth profiles on suppliers or valuable production time, while freeing up lab resources
  • Make the break from bench-chemistry testing to automation and realize true transparency plus improved process control!
  • Save valuable time during product changeovers by giving production at-line results. Reduce backups caused by heavy throughput and routine maintenance requirements of other instruments or personnel issues in the lab!

Automated, affordable testing of milk composition! An ultra-user-friendly, affordable and automated system, the LactiCheck™ provides fat, solids not fat, protein, added water and lactose results simultaneously in just 40 seconds! A compact, closed unit featuring simple, push-button operation, the Model LC-02/RR is designed for testing both unprocessed and processed cow or goat milk products. Improved accuracy and convenient calibration! Based upon the latest advances in ultrasound spectroscopy, the LC-02/RR provides an alternative to tedious, time-consuming, bench-chemistry methods for composition testing. Ease-of-use and reliability make it a good back-up for other automated systems as well! Featuring improved accuracy in fat determination, the dual channels are factory slope calibrated. New LactiCAL™ milk-based controls and simple, push-button procedures facilitate validation and calibration as required.

Artisanal Cheesemakers: Many cheesemakers had to rely exclusively upon costly tests and experienced delays in results by sending samples to independent laboratories. New real-time rapid results are achievable on-site.

Dairy Processors: The move from bench chemistry to automation has been outside of the budget of many small and mid-sized dairy processors. Costs of equipment, maintenance and training have been high - but today there is an affordable alternative.

Large Dairy Processors: The LactiCheck™ is a cost-effective back-up to fully automated infrared systems and can easily be integrated into satellite positions (milk receiving, production, etc.) at critical control points. The LactiCheck™ is also a cost-effective solution to take the pressure off the central laboratory at a dairy plant – many of our customers have a LactiCheck™ on the production floor to test the change over of products or confirm completion of cleaning/maintenance.
