Industrial manufacturing applications can benefit greatly with investments that automate tasks and reduce human intervention. In applications where color must be monitored and controlled, inline color measurement tools create a more repeatable manufacturing process, increase the quality of manufactured goods, decrease waste, and ultimately increase profit margins.
TARGET MARKETS
Anywhere Color Accuracy & Color Consistency are Critical
- Extruded films and plastics
- Industrial Coatings
- Powder Coatings
- Coil Coating
- Paper Manufacturing
- Wood Preservatives & Coatings




Benefits of Inline
Color Measurement
Increase Color Accuracy & Consistency. Save time & materials.
- Measurement process is 100% automated & relieves burden from the operator
- Ensures that measurements occur at regular intervals throughout production
- Operators are not required to be skilled with spectrophotometers or computers
- Provides clear PASS/FAIL indication to the operator
- Alerts operator when color is drifting toward an out-of-tolerance condition
Turn-Key Solution
Includes everything required for
color monitoring
- Highly accurate scanning spectrophotometer
- Traverse arm that allows for measurements in multiple locations across material width
- Easy to use software solution and PC with touch screen display
- Light tower for instant notification if color shifts out of tolerance
