X-Rite Pantone color measurement and management solutions featured at NPE:
• Next Generation Ci7800 Benchtop Sphere Spectrophotometer, delivers best-in-class sample-to-sample color measurement, from raw materials all the way through to the delivery of a color-perfect product. Its many new features are designed to improve productivity throughout the entire plastics manufacturing process by eliminating color errors.
• Portable and Compact Spectrophotometers, including 45/0 spectrophotometers, that serve as a foundation for color control programs, making it easy and efficient for plastic manufacturers or suppliers to understand, manage and control color at any stage of production.
• Pocket-sized Spectrocolorimeter that can be used to compare the colors of lab samples or plastic parts in the field with reference standards, and then create reports that can be shared with supply chain partners.
• Color Management Software that reduces guesswork in evaluating color, reduces color formulation costs and allows verification, optimization and certification of performance of color measurement devices.
• Pantone Essentials and the Pantone PLUS Standard plastic chip collection, a reliable standard against which to match materials and products throughout the supply chain and to ensure accurate color specification.
“The choice of color is essential to a product’s success – it creates an emotional connection with the buyer. Suppliers that can deliver brand owners consistent colors every time have a competitive advantage in a crowded marketplace,” added Zlatic.
