Sensory Analytics Introduces New Robotic QA Cell for Automated Coating Measurement
Las Vegas, NV (October 15, 2007) – Sensory Analytics, an emerging leader in
non-contact and non-destructive coating measurement systems, today announced
the introduction of its revolutionary new SpecMetrix® RA Coating Quality Assurance
Cells at the 2007 Pack Expo Show (Booth S-5040) in Las Vegas, NV. These systems
provide manufacturers with a new tool for increasing quality and reducing unit costs.
The new SpecMetrix® RA quality assurance cells are the first automated systems
available to manufacturers that can measure films and coatings over any substrate
material and color, to include metal, composites, glass, plastic and paper.
Specially developed to meet the stringent quality requirements of the packaging,
aerospace, electronics and medical device industries, these new automated systems
enable manufacturers and processors to measure barrier and protective coatings,
over-varnish, inside spray, primer and performance coatings in real-time with
nanometric accuracy. The new coating quality assurance cell features 5-axis
capabilities for measuring complex surfaces and multiple parts.
The new SpecMetrix® RA systems also provide users with the unique ability to
precisely measure the thickness of either wet or dry coatings on their products.
“The SpecMetrix® RA systems offer manufacturers a new means to automate their
quality processes and better keep pace with the latest advances in manufacturing
and spray automation.” said Greg Frisby, CEO of Sensory Analytics. “These new
automated QA tools can also help manufacturers reduce labor hours and increase
their throughput.”
All SpecMetrix® systems deliver precise, real-time coating measurement results
without destructive testing and with no harm to the coating itself. Capable of
measuring coating thickness and color finishes, Sensory’s line of SpecMetrix® coating
measurement systems help customers reduce labor hours in production, finishing
and quality assurance areas. The patented systems, integrated with proprietary
SensorMetric™ software, enable real-time measurement and automated recording
and storage of data for subsequent review or for use within existing quality
assurance programs.
