If custom formulations are part of our expertise, our color-matching capabilities showcase another fundamental aspect: precision through technology. Thanks to a three-step process, we ensure exact color matching for any industrial application.
1. Digital Color Capture
Using state-of-the-art Capsure technology, we begin by digitally capturing and analyzing colors from any surface. This advanced spectro-colorimeter does not merely “see” colors—it reads them with scientific precision. Within seconds, it compares the collected data with our extensive color database to identify the most accurate match.
2. Automatic Precision Formulation
Once the exact color specifications are obtained, our electronic tinting system takes over. This sophisticated system translates chromatic data into precise formulas, automatically calculating and dispensing the necessary components. Automation eliminates human error, ensuring accurate and consistent results every time.
3. Scientific Verification
The final step involves using an advanced spectrophotometer to mathematically verify the color match. We don’t settle for a result that is “close enough”; we aim for documented and measurable precision that meets industrial specifications.
How Does a Spectrophotometer Work?
A spectrophotometer measures color using the Lab coordinate system*, an international standard for precisely describing chromatic characteristics:
-
L* represents brightness (0 = black, 100 = white), measuring the degree of light and dark.
-
a* represents the red-green axis: positive values indicate a red hue, negative values indicate a green hue.
-
b* represents the blue-yellow axis: positive values indicate a yellow hue, negative values indicate a blue hue.
This system allows for precise quantification of every color variation, ensuring accurate color reproduction and compliance with customer specifications.
This technological approach is what sets Farben Vernici apart in the industrial coatings sector: the ability to combine innovative custom solutions with automated precision processes. Whether it’s developing a new formulation for a specific application or ensuring a perfect color match, our commitment remains the same: precision, professionalism, and tailored solutions.
