Visual high-performance measurements during coating and painting

More quality in paintwork and coatings through optical analysis

A flawless coating is crucial for the quality requirements of modern applications – whether in the automotive industry, household and industrial appliances or in high-tech coatings. Faulty spray patterns, uneven coating thicknesses or overspray not only lead to material losses, but also impair product quality.

With LaVision’s optical spray analysis for coatings, you receive precise measurement data with which spray behaviour, droplet distribution and coating structure can be precisely analyzed, specifically optimized and permanently monitored.
