c-tex Colour Fabric Inspection
Features
- Batch rolls according to colour variation for production planning
- Colour variation illustrated in terms of Delta E Compare suppliers colour quality.
- Colour Roll map to identify end-to-end and edge-to-edge shading.
- c-tex generates a pass or fail report based on your colour match standards.
- Either inspect against a scanned standard swatch or true colour.
- Export to marker maker/nesting software to change your markers according to colour variation across the width and length.
ADVANTAGES
- Simple colour management of fabric in your factory and factories globally
- Get the best from your fabric providers by sharing objective feedback on colour consistency
- Significantly reduce 2nd products as a result of colour mismatching
- Eliminate material losses incurred by taking swatches & reallocate valuable lab resource
- Eliminate swatching process saving materials, time and resource.
- Reduce cut panel sorting before sewing.
"Eliminates colour mismatching in garments and other sewn goods
All data is stored within the c-tex software for easy production planning. The data can also be used for consultations with your fabric providers. The c-tex colour: roll batcher can be retrofitted onto existing c-tex Fabric Inspection and Relaxing Machines and also other makes and models of inspection and re-rolling equipment. c-tex colour: roll batcher automatically generates a pass or fail report based on your colour match standards.
Specification
Technical Specifications
Delta E Equations capability: CIE1976, CMC2:1, CMC1:1
Chromaticity: TL84, D65, incandescent, cool white and others upon request
Accuracy of the system: 5 times better than visual, 0.2 Delta E (slight variation can result depending on what Delta E Equation is used)
Maximum Material Speed under sensors: 200m/min, Readings per Second: 11
Colour Monitoring of Patterned Fabric: Yes, on condition that patterns repeat throughout the length
MODE OF OPERATIONS
C-tex colour: roll batcher is made up of a sensor array and a master sensor. Colour data is input to the master sensor. The user can scan a master colour swatch as the colour template, or a fabric sample can be used as a control, or the user can key in the X, Y, Z colour coordinators. The other sensor array then compares the colour of the fabric rolls processed against the master sensor data.
