Fast
SECONDS PER SAMPLE
From placing the sample to getting a result takes just seconds, greatly improving inspection efficiency on the line and in QC.
Reliable
REPEATABLE RESULTS
Fixed test conditions and an automated process ensure every measurement delivers strong repeatability.
WHAT IS UNOTA
What Is UnoTA?
UnoTA (Single-Purpose Texture Analyzer) is a texture analyzer purpose-built for quality control (QC) and fixed testing needs.
By precisely controlling probe displacement and force, it converts a product's response under load into objective data — measuring hardness, compression force, breaking force, puncture force and other physical properties, replacing inspection methods that rely on operator experience or sensory judgment.
The core value of a texture analyzer is turning a product's feel and physical properties into data that can be quantified, compared, and tracked.
WHY IT MATTERS
Why Choose UnoTA?
Traditional quality inspection often relies on manual pressing, visual checks, or taste testing — and every inspector's judgment can differ, which easily leads to batch variation, inconsistent quality, and difficulty establishing an objective standard.
UnoTA standardizes the testing process: simply place the sample and start the test to get consistent, repeatable results quickly, so quality management is built on scientific data rather than subjective experience.
HOW IT WORKS
Four Steps to Complete a Test
Place the Sample
Place the sample on the test platform and select the corresponding probe and test method.
Probe Descends
Press TEST — the probe descends at the set speed and contacts the sample surface.
Force Is Measured
As the sample deforms under load, the load cell captures force and displacement data in real time.
Result Is Produced
The LCD displays the peak force and result, and the probe automatically returns to its origin.
WHAT IT MEASURES
What Can UnoTA Measure?
Depending on the probe and test method used, UnoTA can measure a range of physical parameters — all results are given as numeric values, serving as a key reference for R&D, quality control, and batch comparison.
APPLICATIONS
What Applications Fit UnoTA?
UnoTA is widely used across food, biotech, materials, and packaging — each application simply swaps in the right probe to complete the corresponding test.

COMPARE
UnoTA vs. Traditional Inspection
| Criteria | Traditional Manual Check | UnoTA |
|---|---|---|
| Basis of Judgment | By feel | Objective data measurement |
| Inspection Standard | Differs by inspector | Fixed test procedure |
| Batch Management | Hard to compare batches | Can establish a quality standard |
| Data Tracking | No history to trace | Data can be saved and analyzed |
| Consistency | Lower repeatability | High repeatability and consistency |
CORE VALUE
UnoTA isn't just about producing a single test value — it helps your organization build a standardized quality management process.
When every test is run with the same method, the same conditions, and the same acceptance criteria, product quality no longer depends on experience — it rests on data that is reliable, traceable, and repeatable.
Make every test a result you can trust.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a texture analyzer?
A texture analyzer is an instrument that precisely controls probe displacement and force to measure how a product responds under load, converting a product's feel and physical properties (such as hardness, crispness, and elasticity) into objective, comparable data.
How does UnoTA work?
Place the sample on the test platform and press TEST — the probe descends at a set speed and compresses or punctures the sample while the load cell captures force data in real time. The probe automatically returns to its origin when the test finishes.
What's the difference between UnoTA and RapidTA?
RapidTA is a multi-purpose texture analysis platform supporting many test methods and applications. UnoTA is optimized for a single, fixed QC testing need, with a simpler operation and a more intuitive interface — ideal for repeatable inspection on production lines and QC stations.
What products can UnoTA test?
Depending on the probe and test method, UnoTA can be used on foods such as cookies, bread, jelly, fruit, and meat, as well as materials and biotech applications like packaging film, seal strength, gel, and cream texture.
How repeatable are the results?
UnoTA's fixed test conditions and automated process reduce operator error, delivering strong, consistent repeatability for the same sample and test method.
What is a compression test?
A compression test has the probe compress a sample at a fixed speed while measuring the force response — it's one of the most common methods for evaluating hardness and firmness.
Is UnoTA suitable for placement next to a production line?
Yes. UnoTA's compact desktop design and simplified one-button operation make it well suited to production floors or QC stations for quick spot checks.
