SOFTWARE
EquiColor
- Used with the Equispec Inline Color Spectrophotometer, EquiColor
- Enables operators to monitor L*, a*, b* under a series of illuminants and observers.
- Ensures that production batches are within tolerance ranges of approved standards.
- Security features allow production managers or process engineers to set standards and tolerances while letting operators use, access and recall previous operational files without affecting their settings.
- Saves all measured color values and tolerances for every job in a single file, allowing operators to review such file at any time in the future.
EquiChem
- Used with the Equispec Chemical Process Analyzer, EquiChem.
- Provides for complete configuration, data collection, and plotting, including residuals, statistics, predictions and errors, and calculation and prediction of results.
- A variety of chemometric techniques such as Multiple Linear Regression, Classical Least Squares, Principal Component Regression, and Polynomial Least Squares are used within the program.
- All models may be used online to provide real-time predictions of chemical concentrations.
