Essae IMA-815 Milk Collection System: Your Complete Data-Driven Dairy Management Solution
For dairy cooperatives, collection centers, and processors across India, managing milk intake is a complex operation that directly impacts profitability, farmer trust, and product quality. It's not just about weighing milk; it's about instantly analyzing its composition, calculating fair payment, managing vast member databases, and ensuring every drop is accounted for with absolute transparency. UP Scales, a trusted authorized reseller of Essae, presents the ultimate solution engineered for this very purpose: the Essae IMA-815 Milk Collection System.
This system represents a fundamental shift from basic testing to integrated, data-driven dairy management. As envisioned by Essae—India's largest manufacturer of weighing machines and milk analyzers—the IMA-815 is more than an analyzer; it's a complete "Milk Collection System." It seamlessly integrates a high-precision ultrasonic milk analyzer, a powerful Data Processing Unit (DPU), and a thermal printer into a single, robust unit. By combining swift, laboratory-accurate analysis with sophisticated software, it empowers you to make faster, more informed decisions, streamline operations from intake to payment, and build a foundation of trust with every farmer. If your goal is to redefine milk analysis with speed, accuracy, and integrated insight, the IMA-815 is the definitive choice.
Why the Essae IMA-815 System is the Smart Investment for Modern Dairies
Choosing the IMA-815 is a strategic decision to enhance efficiency, accuracy, and control at your collection point. Here’s how it transforms daily operations:
- From Testing to Total Management: Unlike standalone analyzers, the IMA-815 is built around its intelligent Data Processing Unit (DPU). This means every test result is instantly processed, linked to a farmer's ID, and used to automatically calculate payment based on your custom Fat/SNF or Fat/CLR rate charts. It turns raw data into actionable financial information in one seamless flow.
- Unmatched Speed and Accuracy for Fair Trade: With a measuring time of just 38 seconds at 30°C, the system ensures farmers spend less time waiting. More importantly, its advanced ultrasonic sensor technology delivers precise readings, such as Fat accuracy of ±0.1% and SNF accuracy of ±0.2%. This scientific objectivity guarantees every farmer is paid fairly for the true quality of their milk, eliminating disputes and building long-term loyalty.
- Engineered for Tough, Real-World Environments: Built with a Stainless Steel (SS-304) housing and offering both manual and automatic cleaning, the IMA-815 is made to withstand the demanding, wash-down conditions of a dairy. Its battery backup supports 150 operational cycles, ensuring uninterrupted testing even during power fluctuations—a critical feature in rural and semi-urban collection centers.
- Data Sovereignty and Connectivity: The system gives you complete control over your data. With a massive storage capacity of 100,000 records and support for 300 member IDs, all information is securely on-device. Data can be easily transferred via Wi-Fi, USB pen drive, or RS-232 connections for backend accounting, creating a seamless bridge between field operations and office management.
