Measuring the quality of liquid processes in real-time
the potential to revolutionise liquid quality control, since it enables continuous process monitoring and is universally suitable for all fluids, from thin to thick.

ollo’s new online measuring technology can detect nearly any change in liquid properties straight from the process in real- time. The novel technology has
Collo’s technology is based on RF signals that can penetrate any liquid, machine learning, and sophisticated edge computing analysis. It is a simple-to-use solution that adapts to any liquid process automatically and results in an eight-dimensional multiparameter, real-time analysis that makes it possible to adjust the process immediately when there is a quality issue.
Collo’s eight-dimensional multiparameter, real- time analysis makes it possible to adjust a wide array of different liquid processes immediately when there is a quality issue.
“The technology can detect nearly any thinkable change in the liquid properties in real-time”, says Matti Järveläinen, CEO and founder of ColloidTek. “The result is a continuous quality control, contrary to the normal, time-consuming quality control process based on blind samples and laboratory analyses.”
CUSTOMERS WORLDWIDE Collo’s liquid fingerprint technology gives the manufacturing industry an opportunity to ensure that a liquid process behaves consistently from batch to batch. As an example, it can monitor fermentation processes widely used in food, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries and many other bioprocesses, to ensure that the delicate microbiological process is progressing as intended. “The number of scrapped end-products can be minimised if the quality deviations are detected early in the process,” says Mikko Tielinen, head of Sales. “Why invest in a new factory if it is possible to radically enhance the production at the current factory just by improving the way the process quality is measured?”
That is one of the reasons why Collo is
currently building industrial partnerships worldwide, from Asia to Europe and the USA. “Since Collo can adapt to almost any fluid, it means that the manufacturing industry can focus its quality assurance on real problems in real-time, instead of relying on blind samples that only provide retroactive snapshots of the process”,
