Sensory Analytics – SpecMetrix Systems

Sensory Analytics supplies highly precise and patented SpecMetrix® coating thickness and film layer measurement systems to global manufacturers, coaters, and converters of films, foils, and laminated products.

The exclusive SpecMetrix ROI technology built into all SpecMetrix® systems provides customers with a real-time display of continuous absolute coating thickness data for wet or dry coatings and film layers immediately following application on a wide variety of clear, opaque and printed substrates. Most industry leaders selecting these tools to replace inefficient off-line weight checks and indirect measurement methods that require continuous calibrations.

Powered by its proprietary software, non-contact and non-radioactive SpecMetrix® systems are built to withstand the rigors of any manufacturing environment and generate more precise thickness data down to sub-micron levels. SpecMetrix systems can accurately measure thinner coatings and separate layers simultaneously and individually, helping film processors identify underlying problems with a particular film stack in real-time.

SpecMetrix systems precisely measure the absolute thickness of thinner films and coatings including:

• Adhesives
• Barrier films and coatings
• Laminated film layers
• Silicones
• Single and dual coatings
• Scratch-resistant layers
• Topcoats
• Transparent conductors
• UV coatings
• Other performance coatings

SpecMetrix Coating Measurement Systems Product Offerings:

SpecMetrix® offline lab systems provide precise and instant measurement data for flat samples and varied end-products. All SpecMetrix offline units can measure wet or dry samples in any environment from the QA lab to the factory floor. This flexibility allows for more accurate coat weight and absolute thickness checks during set-ups or QA sample testing. Global converting leaders use SpecMetrix ROI technology as a preferred tool for film weight forensics based on its unmatched ability to identify and quantify thin coating or layer thickness levels with nanometric precision.

For in-process measurement applications, fixed probe and scanning system configurations are offered to meet most plant coating QA needs. Our cutting-edge optical packages take over 100 measurements per second per probe, at line speeds up to 2,000 feet per minute. Customers can select single or multiple fixed probe mounting options to collect thickness data from the top and bottom of coated webs. Single and dual traversing measurement configuration options easily deliver in-process, cross-and-down web QA data and analysis. Plant teams can select whichever data display pattern best suits their production requirements. The ability to provide full side-to-side web coating measurements on the top and bottom of coated webs at thinner coating application levels facilitates unmatched QA process improvements.

SpecMetrix systems are also available in as OEM offerings for coaters, laminators, coating line, and conventional coating equipment suppliers. These flexible systems are designed to interface quickly and seamlessly. SpecMetrix OEM, HMI, and integrated control options are available in stand-alone or fully integrated configurations.

SpecMetrix systems are the most flexible, effective and user-friendly non-contact coating thickness measurement solutions available today. These measurement solutions optimize coating utilization and improve coating process control in diverse manufacturing environments and enable plants to move towards process digitalization. Operators obtain immediate feedback on coating quality while providing plant management with direct quality data and a permanent quality record of each run without operator involvement. SpecMetrix systems help set-up, changeover and inspection times, while also helping manufacturing plants to reduce their waste streams and environmental impact. Customers report complete ROI within an average of six to nine months after installation.
