in-process plastic solutions color the way your eye sees it

A dynamic approach to Color Process Monitoring and Analysis SpectraTrend® HT takes non-contact Color and Height measurement to their highest levels, combining versatility, simplicity and performance in one easy-to-use compact design. SpectraTrend® HT supports implementation of today’s Total Quality Management programs such as LQM, PAT, Six Sigma, DMAIC, and others that share a common goal of producing consistent product quality and reducing waste. Implementation of color control in plastic extrusion process of product. Reduce color changeover time color change - Improved efficiencies and reduced...

Cable channels Sheet Film (opaque) Vinyl Siding SHEET PLASTIC Plastic Extrusion Applications Masterbatch Recycled plastic Window Profile Custom Profile Hose/Tube Pipe Reduce Scrap and Rework - Identify color change in real-time, take corrective action before a ‘fail’ condition Problem: Time-interval based QC methods do not identify color variation that happens between QC inspections. These changes come from bulk-density changes, screw build-up that suddenly releases, screw wear and other normal manufacturing process variables. Problem Solved: Color stability and color change-outs can be more...
