WineScan™ consists of the analyser and Foss Integrator software. This wine analyser gives a high accuracy and best results for your wine production. The WineScan™ can be configured to suit your specific needs. Options for WineScan™ include the possibility to upgrade with colour (VIS) module and to automatic version with XY Autosampler.

WineScan™ ensures full control of the entire winemaking process from grape harvesting to bottling. Ready-to-use calibrations allow for the simultaneous analysis of major wine quality parameters. Cost effective tool to achieve full process control With robust multi-component analysis, WineScan provides a full calibration package including 42 robust calibrations based on a FOSS database of more than 150.000 samples. With a low cost per sample, WineScan provides a cost effective way of performing analysis for a fast return of investment. Secure wine quality and sanity levels Segregate grapes for better control of final wine quality. With the grape soundness parameter package you can be in control of your final product regardless of fluctuations in grape quality. A flexible solution to suit your needs WineScan can be configured to accomodate the need and the level of throughput required in your business. WineScan Auto is configured with an autosampler for the busy laboratory, while WineScan Flex has a manual sample intake as well as the ability to accomodate different calibration packages (must, must under fermentation and finished wines).
