Spectro™ Color Measurement

In-line Color Measurement Technology

Color masterbatch measurement system

Spectro™ is a contactless in-line spectrometer that automatically detects color variations to a delta E of +/- 0.05. Fiber optic sensors compare color data to the preset color standard to deliver consistent and accurate color monitoring without interrupting production. Automated self-calibration eliminates special tuning and complex adjustments

Designed for plastic injection molding, blow molding, and extrusion processes, Spectro maintains uniform color standards both in-house and with contract processors.

Benefits:

  • Greatly reduces downtime for testing samples
  • Removes all subjectivity-uses L*a*b* value measurements and preset delta E threshold levels
  • Prevents excess masterbatch consumption
  • Reduces rejects and scrap
  • Records historical data to improve future productivity
  • Optional cloud service provides cell phone access
