In order to be sure that it is producing the very best quality feed, the company makes use of NIR (near infrared spectroscopy) instruments to provide rapid and accurate nutritional analyses of feed ingredients, intermediate products, and finished feeds. To this end, the company explains that 600,000 samples are manually passed through around 60 instruments annually, generating over three million analytical results. Although the samples require little preparation and results are available almost instantly, the processes are dependent on process operators to collect samples and run scans at intervals. “We wanted to know how we can relieve them from the task of chemical analysis so that they can focus on their main job, which is to produce the feed,” says Ørjan Breivik, NIR Team Lead at Skretting Aquaculture Innovation. In collaboration with Skretting Norway, they launched an online NIR project to automate a process that aims to define when to collect samples and perform the analysis – without any human intervention.
