APC colorAdjust

Highest color precision in compounding and recycling

APC colorAdjust not only monitors color fluctuations without contact, but also directly adjusts them back to the color setpoint in the event of the smallest deviations. In this way, the processor achieves a high level of reproducibility even with input goods with a varying color spectrum. The color setpoint is quickly reached both when starting up the compounding or recycling process after a standstill and after a color change.

High reproducibility even for input goods with varying color spectrum
Fully automatic color correction
Non-contact monitoring during the process
High degree of automation
