Color Management: How to invest in spectrophotometers today leads to more profitable tomorrow

At a time when times are tough, it seems that cutting corners on color management is saving these extra dollars, but unfortunately this usually has the opposite effect. In the past decade, the dismissal of workers has become reality for many, with pay cuts and frozen pay. When we get out of this recession, we have only limited resources and outdated technology. Color management and approval are often fragmented between fewer employees and new color product development and production growth, meeting manufacturing and quality standards as real challenges. If we were to put ourselves under the spectrophotometer today, then in the highly competitive global market, we are scrambling to meet the color management standards and we'll see the color of

Save money

Did you know that in the United States, there are 165 billion U.S. dollars of food waste each year, often due to the failure of color management. Loss of income continues to increase due to the increase in the amount of wasted material due to color changes in other industries such as plastics, coatings, solvents and coatings. When color management is overlooked, the transport of many substandard materials is often rejected and returned, contributing even more to indirect costs. Even as products enter the consumer path without meeting color management standards, product names and companies are quickly becoming known for their lack of quality, and buyers are likely to shift to more reliable products.

Quality control and color management go hand in hand. No color changes were found at any time and it took valuable time to make corrections. This often results in increased labor costs for reprocessing or discards of material again. What is clear is that investing in technology can prevent these mistakes before they happen, which is an investment in profitability.

The difference between new technologies

When you rely on visual analysis or outdated equipment, errors and costs increase. Today's spectrophotometers provide state-of-the-art technology to accurately monitor and analyze color management-controlled chromatic aberration. With state-of-the-art spectrophotometers, color matching, batch-size variations, and the ability to create a broader color range with fewer colorant inventories can be done. New instrument technology virtually eliminates all the common challenges of quality control in color measurement. The ability to control lighting and background disturbances, adapt to various batch sizes, and measure various sample formats (ie, liquids, solids, and powders) has been tailored to specific markets or needs.

Spectrophotometers eliminate many of the difficulties associated with visual assessment and color standards and are constantly changing to meet not only consumer expectations, but also industry standards and regulations. These new standards have undergone constant revision and are increasingly dependent on the latest technologies of colorimetric and spectrophotometric methods. Newly designed standards lead to major improvements in color quality control, such as the Single-tone Passthrough (SNSP) system and total color difference ΔE.

In addition to these advances, quality control organizations such as USDA (USDA) and EPA (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency) are constantly revising standards and regulations for color usage and technology. Spectrophotometer manufacturers must constantly adapt their products to meet these color measurement standards for many food and environmental regulations in the chemical and plastics industries.

Choose the correct instrument
