TEWS measurement devices for moisture measurement are sought after in several cigarette and tobacco factories around the world, and are successfully installed to determine the important values affecting tobacco, cigarettes and cigars.

Hamburg, the 25 February 2013 – Semiluxury goods of all kinds require strict monitoring. This guarantees that the products can be offered at consistent quality. This is particularly important in the tobacco industry. Ultimately, the moisture content of semiluxury goods is of high significance. Only through persistent inspection of the moisture content can consistent quality of cigarettes and cigars be guaranteed. On the other hand, how can density and moisture be determined accurately and quickly?

The TEWS Electronic GmbH & Co. KG offers measurement systems of various types for industrial use. The moisture and density in medications, as well as in wood, or even in tobacco, can be measured with these patented methods. „Through our various devices and our patented method, density and moisture can be assigned to raw tobacco, leafy tobacco, cut tobacco and stems, as well as into cigarettes and cigars“, says André Tews, who sits on the executive boards of the company. Their success corroborates this statement, since the TEWS measurement systems have since been deployed in several cigarette and cigar factories in Europe, Asia, Africa and America.

Manfred Tews, the CEO and founder of the innovative company knows how important flexibility and accuracy are in today“s tobacco industry . „For this reason, our product range stretches from portable handheld devices to laboratory and process systems, and right up to custom solutions; we are able to offer correction proposals with regards to the cutting settings on the cigarette machines by means of measuring the moisture and weight distribution in individual cigarettes.“

Those interested can further inform themselves about the processes and be assured of the accuracy of the test results directly on location at the company, on their home page, or through various exhibitions, in which TEWS GmbH & Co. KG regularly participates.

The TEWS Elektronik GmbH & Co. KG was founded at the end of the 70s by Manfred Tews in Hamburg. Initially, computer technology was produced here. Then 10 years later, the company specialized itself on the development and production of density-independent moisture measurement devices, which operate on the basis of microwave resonance technology. Today the patented microwave resonance method is used in process- as well as in laboratory applications in many industries. The range of services is being constantly expanded and now offers, with the new fourth generation devices, moisture measurement devices which are characterized by software that can be used intuitively.
