Fakuma 2024 Październik 15 - 19, 2024

Join X-Rite Pantone at Fakuma 2024, the world’s leading trade event for industrial plastics processing, where we will be showcasing our industry-leading color measurement solutions for specification and design, formulation, production, and quality control on a variety of plastic applications.

Join X-Rite Pantone in Hall B1, Stand 1307 at Fakuma 2024!

As the urgency of climate change grows, the global plastic market faces increasing pressure to minimize its environmental impact. At X-Rite, we're leading the change by offering cutting-edge color measurement solutions tailored to meet your sustainability goals across every stage of production, from concept to final inspection. Whether you work with plastic pellets, extruded plastic, uniquely shaped bottles, transparent or translucent preforms or plaques, or materials with optical brightening agents, X-Rite solutions can help you eliminate subjective color communication and assessment that often ends with unnecessary waste, reduce the need for physical prototypes, and verify color is on target through all stages of the manufacturing process.

Join us at Fakuma 2024 to witness firsthand how our innovative technologies can help you streamline processes, reduce waste, work faster and more efficiently, and formulate with leftover or recycled materials.

When: October 15 - 19, 2024
Where: Messe Friedrichshafen, Germany
Location: Hall B1, Stand 1307

Featured Solutions for Specification & Design:

• PANTORA™ appearance software streamlines design workflows by providing industrial designers and suppliers with a solution to quickly and accurately create a digital twin of a physical material for 3D rendering, and then communicate the material data without shipping physical prototypes.
• AxF provides a standardized format for material appearance data. Used in design, development, and marketing, it helps brands reduce cycle time, control costs, and ensure color consistency.
• PantoneLIVE Production - Plastic, Coatings and Textile libraries, is a cloud-based system that enables digital specification and communication of Pantone standards across the global supply chain.

Featured Solutions for Formulation:

• Color iMatch formulation software optimizes match performance, streamlines formulation attempts, and enhances productivity through automation.
• Ci7860 benchtop spectrophotometer helps formulators quickly and efficiently meet color trends and achieve customer specifications by capturing the most precise color data.
• MetaVue VS3200 employs digital on-screen targeting and adjustable aperture sizes to capture accurate measurements on a wide range of plastic samples, including curved and small pieces like cords, buttons, and caps.
• NetProfiler software verifies all devices are calibrated and optimized for color measurement to guarantee all devices are delivering the same measurement data, reducing inconsistencies across devices and ensuring color matching confidence.

Featured Solutions for Production:

• ERX130 Inline measurement spectrophotometer offers contactless measurement with a large spot size, providing consistent color readings on textured, patterned, and glossy samples.
• Ci7800 benchtop spectrophotometer ensures precise and efficient inspection of incoming raw pellets, accommodating various sample sizes and shapes with reflectance and transmission measurement capabilities.

Featured Solutions for Quality Control:

• Ci64 handheld spectrophotometer provides high-end quality control solutions suitable for lab, field, and manufacturing plant environments.
• Color iQC software offers comprehensive quality control monitoring from specification to assembly, automating color control processes at every stage.
• MA-5 QC multi-angle spectrophotometer accurately evaluates metallic colors, and special effect finishes with five standard measurement angles.
• MA-T12 uses twelve angles of measurement and color imaging which enables full and complete characterization and detailed visualization of today’s effect and complex materials.
• MetaVue VS3200 is a non-contact imaging spectrophotometer that uses digital on-screen targeting and aperture sizes ranging from 2mm to 12mm. It can capture precise measurements on a variety of difficult-to-measure plastic samples, even curved and tiny pieces like cords, buttons, and caps.
• SpectraLight QC light booth offers 7 different light sources and accurately evaluates samples and products under the appropriate lighting conditions.
