PeColor Color Matching System
Professional computer colour-matching software — automatic and manual recipe formulation, batch correction and colour quality control for printing, paint, coatings, plastics, textiles, ceramics and automotive.
- Colour quality control with automatic pass/fail based on L*, a*, b* and ΔE*
- Automatic and manual recipe formulation with a choice of 1–6 colorants
- Formulation by combination — selects the optimal recipe for quality, cost and metamerism
- Colorant characterisation and automatic recipe correction after raw-material or process changes
PeColor is professional computer colour-matching software from 3nh, covering colour matching, recipe correction and archiving, and quality-control functions. The system is built for printing, industrial painting, coatings, printing inks, textiles, ceramic tiles and automotive, providing a complete colour-matching solution.
By measuring a standard and a sample, PeColor reports absolute colour values (L*, a*, b*) and colour-difference data (dL*, da*, db*, dE*), and automatically returns a pass/fail conclusion against a configured tolerance range. The software can select 1–6 colorants for automatic recipe formulation, or work in manual mode with a limited colorant set, delivering the optimal recipe for the existing process conditions.
Features
- Quality control, accuracy and flexibility — automatic pass/fail based on L*, a*, b* values and colour-difference data (dL*, da*, db*, dE*)
- Automatic/manual formulation — choose colour-matching files or a limited dye set, select 1–6 colorants for automatic quantitative recipe calculation
- Formulation by combination — from customer samples, the software provides every available recipe under the existing process, letting the technician pick the optimal one for quality, cost and metamerism
- Colorant characterisation — reads the optical properties of 5–8 concentration points per colorant to build a colorant and substrate database
- Recipe correction — automatic, fast correction when the first formulation misses spec, or after changes to raw materials, process conditions or colorant compatibility
Applications
PeColor is used in printing, industrial painting and paint manufacturing, coatings, printing inks, textiles, ceramic tile production and automotive — anywhere fast colour-recipe formulation and correction is needed.
