Applications pay for themselves before having to be paid for says agent Simon Ganley

Napier, MSCNewsWire, Wednesday 22 June 2016 - Household name biscuit and snacks manufacturer Griffin’s has implemented the NDC process monitoring and control instrumentation. The NDC system is applied to Griffin’s degree-of- bake process which is central to the production of biscuits.

Now under the NDC measurement approach biscuit production becomes automatically standardised and especially as to the required moisture content and colour presentation.

The NDC instrument monitoring replicates the response of the human eye to changes in colour and ingredients.

It does so over a moving conveyor and it is ultra-sensitive in detecting thechanges in surface brownness of the biscuits.

The NDC range is managed by Simon Ganley of Ganley Engineering. His confidence in the range is reflected in his willingness to install the NDC instrumentation on the basis of a financial lease.

Mr Ganley simply informs prospects that by the time they pay him for the installation, it will have recouped many times its own costs. This will have been achieved in terms of the savings made through the elimination of wasted bakes.

The Anglo-American instrument maker NDC sprang from Britain’s pioneering aviation company Fairey made famous by its Swordfish seaplane. It is now part of Spectris a FTSE 250 company.

Griffin’s is owned by the Philippines food manufacturer Universal Robina Corporation.
