\nAs a leader in colour matching technology, Axalta pioneered the development of portable colorimeters and then spectrophotometers, and was the first in the industry to offer a device that measures colour and flake appearance in 2011.<\/p>\nIn Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), today\u2019s spectrophotometers are available from each of Axalta\u2019s three premium global refinish brands \u2013 Cromax\u00ae, Spies Hecker and Standox. The devices are branded as ChromaVision\u00ae and ChromaVision\u00ae Pro from Cromax\u00ae, Color Dialog and Color Dialog Delta-Scan from Spies Hecker and Genius II and Genius iQ from Standox. The cutting-edge spectrophotometers are also available globally to Axalta\u2019s bodyshop customers as part of its extensive colour tool choices. They are sold in the US and Asia Pacific under the names Acquire and Acquire Plus EFX\u2122.<\/p>\n
Dr. Martin Wulf, Colour Marketing Manager for Axalta Refinish Systems in EMEA, says, \u201cThe devices are designed to help refinishers get the right colour match the first time by eliminating costly mistakes and by speeding up the repair process. The patented technology quickly identifies the paint colour, and users of the second-generation devices will also get the details of any paint effects. Then, the colour software selects the closest colour formula to match based on pre-set search criteria making the entire process quick, easy and effortless.\u201d<\/p>\n
Carr concludes, \u201cIt is a milestone to have Axalta\u2019s 40,000th spectrophotometer in the marketplace. It truly is a compliment that so many bodyshops realise the benefits of this device. Customers appreciate tools that help them get the job done efficiently, quickly and accurately. We are proud to offer this solution to the market and look forward to its continued growth.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
