When a cigar burns, it releases sugars and essential oils stored in the tobacco leaves. This is why the moisture content and temperature of the cigars must be controlled very closely, in order to ensure its richness and taste, whether it is during production, packaging or stored.

Standard moisture control methods can be a highly time-consuming tasks and require strong competences, for us to help the tobacco industry needs, TEWS has developed a moisture and density analyzer station for cigars.

Both parameters are obtained automatically and instantaneously and are displayed on the screen in the form of a graphic and a table.
