INLINE SPECTROSCOPY



  • WE OFFER SPECTROMETERS FOR CONTINUOUS INLINE PROCESS CONTROL



    • UV/Vis, NIR, and Raman Spectroscopy

    Spectrometers find increasingly widespread use for inline monitoring of industrial processes. Feeding spectroscopic information into process control is a promising route to greater product quality and higher production efficiency.

    Our spectrometers and fiber optic probes are made for demanding production environments. Their use enables continuous observation of extrusion and other processes without physical sampling or blind spots. ColVisTec’s technology is based on inline UV-Vis, NIR, and Raman spectroscopy and is easy to use and control.

    In some applications, the usage of two probes to monitor two production lines at the same time is possible with a single system. Our technology can be installed in existing manufacturing facilities, boosting their productivity and quality.


    InSpectro X
    UV/VIS-SPECTROPHOTOMETER SYSTEM


    The InSpectro X was designed as an inline color measurement system for continuous production processes. It comprises an integrated spectrometer, which can simultaneously evaluate measurement signals from up to two probes in the wavelength range of 220 - 820 nm, in 1 nm steps. For many applications, the complex spectral information can be divided into three simple color values, e.g. L*, a*, and b*. These are automatically converted from the CIELab color space and displayed. These reduced color values serve as real-time indicators for an ongoing process.

    With the InSpectro X, it is possible to obtain information at points or locations in the process from which no measurements were previously possible. The technology is compatible with a wide range of materials, melts (e.g., plastics, pharmaceuticals), liquids (e.g., paints, inks) and powders in blending operations.

    In combination with the fiber optics RPMP and TPMP our devices can be used to measure in reflection and in transmission modes.
