Zusammenfassung: | Systems for producing, applying and evaluating coating compositions are disclosed. An automatic color matching system includes an automatic coating component dispenser, a container, a mixer for mixing the components of the coating composition and a solvent, an automatic pressurization station to apply pressure to the mixed coating composition, and a robotic arm to transport the container to and from the mixer. A coating composition dispensing system includes a computer to provide a target formulation for a coating composition, an automated component dispenser containing the components of the coating composition, a container positionable adjacent to the component dispenser to receive the components of the coating composition, and an automated component sensor to measure the amounts of each of the components dispensed into the container. The computer is programmed to store data corresponding to the measured amounts of each of the components, and amounts of components contained in the coating compositions may be monitored, along with processing parameters when the coating compositions are applied to various substrates. The characteristics of a produced sample coating may be compared with the characteristics of a target or reference coating to determine if they are sufficiently matched. |
