Description

Brought to you by SpecMetrix, our specialist coating brand, dedicated to innovative coating thickness measurement technologies.

The SpecMetrix® Advanced Lab System provides users with a high standard for non-contact, non-destructive and real-time coating thickness measurements for applied coatings and coated layers on samples.

Streamline QA processes

The SpecMetrix® Advanced Lab System is designed to streamline QA processes. It is one of our preferred laboratory measurement systems, due to its unmatched ability to identify and quantify absolute thin coating or layer thickness with nanometric precision.

The SpecMetrix Advanced Lab System accelerates offline sample testing and improves incoming and finished product inspections.​ It is one of our advanced coating lab systems trusted by QA laboratories across multiple industries and applications worldwide.

Versatile measurement capabilities 

SpecMetrix® Advanced Lab System is an extremely versatile system, allowing users to measure virtually any coating or coated layers. 

  • Wet or dry applied coatings
  • Clear, colored or pigmented coatings
  • Coatings over any substrate, ideal for almost any industry including flexible packaging, automotive and industrial
  • Broad range of use – real-time measurements of single or dual coatings, or discrete layers down to sub-micron level
  • Modular design with instant measurement capability from QA lab to production floor​

High precision, instant measurements

SpecMetrix® Advanced Lab System provides highly accurate, non-contact sample testing in both single point and scanning mode. It delivers ultra-precise and real-time measurements of coatings and layer thicknesses to help accelerate sample testing, data collection and QA analysis.

Complete coating measurement analysis

With SpecMetrix’s precise and innovative optical technology, users can obtain complete coating measurement data for their samples. Our technology will allow you to obtain advanced coating measurements through non-contact and non-destructive means.

The technology is safe too – non-radioactive and non-invasive. Our patented, exclusive optical technology is highly advanced and relied upon throughout coating industries.

Powerful SensorMetric Software

An integral part to measurement analysis, our user-friendly software package stores all measurement data to Excel® or interfaces to plant networks for SPC analysis during or after production runs.

In addition, our software includes a Recipe Assistant that helps operators create new and edit existing coating recipes.

Optional system configurations

Discuss with our team of experts what your configuration requirements are. We can advise on the best system optimized to your laboratory or production line needs. Whether it is completely offline, periodic in-line or for fully in-line systems – we can offer a measurement system to suit your requirements.  

What are the benefits of absolute thickness measurement data?

Gathering precise measurement data in real-time allows you to accelerate sample testing, improve data collection and QA analysis, so you can ensure your substrates receive the optimum amount of coating.  

Have other businesses saved money using our systems?

Our innovative technologies have allowed various customers to achieve the following:  

  • A 15% reduction in coating consumption after system implementation on just the primer and backer processes  
  • A 30% overall cost savings for the business after system implementation on just the backer process  
  • A reduction in cost of more than $50,000 per month after system implementation on just the primer process
