Coatmaster AG has announced the launch of its new, fully digital Coatmaster Flex for real-time non-contact coating thickness measurement that is optimally integrated into the production process.

According to the company, the Coatmaster Flex now offers superior WiFi connectivity, an enhanced battery management system and fundamentally revised software which promotes greater process control and automation. Its measuring process features SpectralBlue technology for disturbance-free operation.

The new WiFi module reportedly enables wireless connectivity with the cloud of up to 100 m range from the nearest access point; however, the capability to integrate and operate the device with a local server also remains an option. Meanwhile, the new battery management system enables more measurements to be taken with each individual charge.

The revised software includes automatic email notifications about the production process. In addition, new production tasks can be managed directly in the cloud, meaning that staff on the coating line only need to measure. Bi-directional communication with the coating lines enables new tasks to be automatically transmitted from the coating line to the Coatmaster Flex. Continuous information on the applied coating thickness is automatically synchronized with customers’ coating or ERP systems.

Andor Bariska, co-founder and co-CEO of Coatmaster AG, says, “By taking coating thickness measurement into the digital age, we are empowering the industry towards greater productivity and profitability with real-time information about their processes.”

Prof. Dr. Nils Reinke, co-founder and co-CEO of Coatmaster AG, adds, “Our quest has always been about enabling our customers to achieve greater economy, sustainability and ultimately profitability. The seamless embedding of non-contact coating thickness measurement in the production process is our central concern. We have created the optimal conditions for this with our open communication interfaces.”
