SpecMetrix systems are available as flexible off-line and ruggedized in-line non-contact coating measurement tools where they can measure applied wet or dry coatings over the widest variety of substrates and end-products. SpecMetrix measures sub-micron coatings and layers in real time with unprecedented accuracy – at over 150 measurements per second.

Award-winning SpecMetrix® systems deliver a transformative technology for real-time coating thickness and film layer measurement.

SpecMetrix® In-line Coating Measurement Systems

SpecMetrix offers exclusive in-line coating thickness measurement systems for coating and production lines. Designed to provide non-contact, non-destructive and real-time thickness measurements for applied coatings.

SpecMetrix non-contact, non-destructive Traversing Inline Coating and Film Thickness Measurement System is suitable for flexible and coil industries. It can deliver real-time coating and layer thickness measurement data to sub-micron level immediately following application. The system can measure coated film weight in real time in wet state, reducing set-up and changeover time which increases production output and reduced cost. SpecMetrix in-line systems provide manufacturing and QA teams with feedback on coating quality immediately following application, improving coating process control and product quality. The system can be configured as single traversing or dual traversing system.

SpecMetrix Automated Can Stand (ACS) System

SpecMetrix ACS System is suitable for 2-piece can manufacturers, canneries and coating suppliers. It can measure inside spray and over varnish on print accurately and non-destructive. Configurations available are ACS-1 for a single can and ACS-10 for measurement of 1 – 10 cans in batches in lab or production floor environment.

SpecMetrix Advanced Lab Coating Measurement System

The SpecMetrix Advanced Lab System delivers a higher standard for non-contact, non-destructive and thickness measurement for applied coatings and coated layers on samples. The system is a preferred lab forensic tool based on 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.

SpecMetrix Automated Can Stand (ACS) System

SpecMetrix ACS System is suitable for 2-piece can manufacturers, canneries and coating suppliers. It can measure inside spray and over varnish on print accurately and non-destructive. Configurations available are ACS-1 for a single can and ACS-10 for measurement of 1 – 10 cans in batches in lab or production floor environment.

Single cans or multiple cans

The SpecMetrix® ACS Systems are configured to meet your specific can plant needs. From flexible single can models or plant-floor ready systems for multiple containers, we offer a semi-automated non-contact solution that delivers highly precise film weight data that supports your intended process control, QA or claims review uses.

  • Single can: The ACS-1 System can measure the coatings of single cans, using either a 90° or flexible angle probe, and is well suited for container QA, R&D and coating supplier use.

  • Multiple cans: The ACS-10 System provides plant teams with the flexibility to measure 1 to 10 containers in batches in the lab or can be tested on production floor environments.

Complete coating insights

Through the use of the precise and patented SpecMetrix ROI optical technology, users can obtain complete coating measurement data for their metal packaging products. Whether it be for interior spray coatings, OV or other external coatings, our exclusive technology enables plan teams to obtain more precise coating measurements through non-contact and non-destructive means.

The technology is safe too – non-radioactive, non-contact and non-invasive. Our patented, exclusive optical technology is highly advanced and relied upon throughout multiple global industrial markets.
