The FIWE Advance is a fully automatic fiber analyzer designed for fast and accurate crude and detergent fiber determination according to official reference methods. This instrument ensures maximum reproducibility and accuracy while minimizing operator intervention through its intuitive user interface and cloud connectivity.
FIWE Advance automates the key steps of fiber analysis – digestion, rinsing, and filtration, ensuring consistent results in accordance with the Weende method for crude fiber and the Van Soest method for fiber fractions (NDF, ADF, ADL).
The system ensures high reproducibility and compliance with ISO and AOAC methods, while the use of glass crucibles prevents fiber loss by keeping the sample within the crucible throughout the entire analytical process – from digestion to final weighing.
FIWE Advance is designed for laboratories looking to maximize productivity and reduce costs. It requires only two minutes of operator time, compared to over 50 minutes with semi-automatic solutions.
There is no need for preheating and manual reagent addition, temperature control for proper boiling, or verification of successful filtration – all these steps are fully automated. With cloud connectivity, users can receive real-time analysis status updates and notifications.
FIWE Advance features a 7-inch touchscreen display with a user interface developed by VELP, making operations simple and efficient. Pre-installed methods, developed in accordance with official standards, allow quick analysis startup, while users can create custom methods and select favorites for increased convenience.
Integration with VELP barcode readers enables faster data entry and eliminates transcription errors, while direct balance connectivity ensures quick and automated data transfer and calculation of results.
FIWE Advance operates fully autonomously, while connectivity with the VELP Ermes cloud platform allows users to monitor and control analyses from anywhere via PC, smartphone, or tablet.
