  • Case Study: Memmert Moisture Testing – Where Precision Meets Sustainability

Article


Moisture testing is essential across sectors like food production, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, and materials science. In these industries, consistent and accurate results are critical, not only for quality control and compliance, but also for operational efficiency and sustainability.

One standout example of innovation in this space comes from OLWO AG, a Swiss wood processing company committed to sustainability. To power its on-site district heating plant, OLWO uses wood chips generated during production. However, to function reliably as a fuel, those chips must meet strict moisture content requirements.

To manage this, OLWO partnered with WISAG and selected the Memmert UF55 Universal Drying Oven, a compact, high-precision unit with intelligent air circulation and flap control. Unlike conventional drying ovens, the UF55 actively removes moisture during the drying process, preventing saturation inside the chamber and ensuring consistent, reliable results.

Months into use, OLWO reports exceptional satisfaction with the unit thanks to:
  • Reliable operation with zero downtime
  • Consistent moisture measurement improving energy output
  • Energy efficiency that supports OLWO’s sustainability goals
  • User-friendly interface requiring minimal training


Designed for Precision and Built for Efficiency

Memmert ovens, such as the UF series are engineered in Germany for outstanding performance in even the most demanding lab environments. They feature:

  • Optional advanced twinDISPLAY interfaces for intuitive control
  • Uniform temperature distribution through natural or forced convection
  • Temperature range up to +300 °C
  • almost exclusive use of high-quality, corrosion-resistant and easily cleanable stainless steel for the working chamber and housing
These ovens are ideal for material tests, ageing of computer chips, complex experiments with highly sensitive loads, drying or tempering electronic components, hardening plastic resin or heating plasticine and more!
