TEWS measurement systems determine process moisture in the tobacco industry with extreme precision

Hamburg, the 25 February 2013 – Semiluxury goods of all kinds require strict monitoring. This guarantees that the products can be offered at consistent quality. This is particularly important in the tobacco industry. Ultimately, the moisture content of semiluxury goods is of high significance. Only through persistent inspection of the moisture content can consistent quality of cigarettes and cigars be guaranteed. On the other hand, how can density and moisture be determined accurately and quickly?

The TEWS Electronic GmbH & Co. KG offers measurement systems of various types for industrial use. The moisture and density in medications, as well as in wood, or even in tobacco, can be measured with these patented methods. „Through our various devices and our patented method, density and moisture can be assigned to raw tobacco, leafy tobacco, cut tobacco and stems, as well as into cigarettes and cigars“, says André Tews, who sits on the executive boards of the company. Their success corroborates this statement, since the TEWS measurement systems have since been deployed in several cigarette and cigar factories in Europe, Asia, Africa and America.

Manfred Tews, the CEO and founder of the innovative company knows how important flexibility and accuracy are in today“s tobacco industry. „For this reason, our product range stretches from portable handheld devices to laboratory and process systems, and right up to custom solutions; we are able to offer correction proposals with regards to the cutting settings on the cigarette machines by means of measuring the moisture and weight distribution in individual cigarettes.“

Those interested can further inform themselves about the processes and be assured of the accuracy of the test results directly on location at the company, on their home page, or through various exhibitions, in which TEWS GmbH & Co. KG regularly participates.
