Automotive customers have absolute standards for colour matching carpet pieces and use of a colour sensor has substantially increased yields of perfect carpet sets and lowered scrap rate.
The outstanding features of this new product family include the shortest response times for high-speed applications and high colour sensitivity, in particular when it comes to dark colours and low-reflectivity objects.
Even small colour differences can be detected, for example in quality control of textiles, leather or plastics, such as in the production of automobile seats.
Colour sensors are widely used in the fields of robotics, automation and quality assurance, as well as in production processes.
