NovaMappatura

Understand temperature throughout your process.

NovaMappatura is the Novabase service for studying temperature distribution in heating and cooling equipment. We position probes at your premises and record temperatures during the process to identify critical areas and guide improvements.

Identify differences. Improve the process.

01 /

Critical areas

Identify cold spots in ovens and hot spots in cooling chambers.

02 /

Load arrangement

Assess how product placement changes airflow and cooking or cooling conditions.

03 /

Targeted action

Use the results to identify possible maintenance, corrective action and mechanical work on the equipment.

04 /

Product quality

Analyse non-uniform conditions that may cause processing differences and affect consistent results.

Three perspectives on your equipment.

01 /

Empty

We measure temperature distribution without product to assess equipment uniformity.

02 /

Loaded

We assess the changes introduced by the load and its arrangement, including changes in airflow.

03 /

On the product

We use surface and/or core temperature probes to observe how the product responds during processing.

A test protocol before measurement.

01

Purpose and conditions

We define the mapping type, process and test conditions, taking account of critical heating or cooling points.

02

Probes and positions

We agree on an appropriate number of sensors and their placement in the equipment and, where required, on the product.

03

Timing and limits

We establish measurement intervals, analysis duration and permissible limits for the test.

04

Recording and analysis

We record temperatures during the process and define the data required for reporting and comparing measurement points.

From trends to process decisions.

Overlaid trend charts show temperature distribution and the time needed to reach it. Depending on the agreed test, the analysis can include:

  • Ambient temperature distribution inside the equipment.
  • Deviation between the setpoint and temperature at each point.
  • Variation in product core temperature across equipment positions.
  • Information to assess maintenance, corrective action and product arrangement.

Where included in the test, calculations are available for C₀ at the product surface (reference 100 °C, z = 33 °C) and the pasteurisation F value at the product surface (reference 70 °C, z = 10 °C), according to the parameters defined in the protocol.

Which equipment do you need to map?

Tell us about the equipment, process, operating temperatures and whether you need an empty, loaded or product test. We will define the protocol and quotation together.
