Optimatch® Textiles Color Formulation Software

 

 

 

 

Optimatch® Textiles performs initial match predictions, optimizes these match predictions and ranks them based on cost and/or quality.
  • Optimatch Textiles saves sample preparation time and costs with on-screen color. You can detect relative color differences between a standard and predicted match or correction.
  • The color palette feature simplifies color selection. You can group dyes by color, dye affinity or other user selectable parameters.
  • Automatic and manual batch corrections to your initial formulation allow you to improve the match. Additionally, Optimatch Textiles allows you to compensate for overdyeing with a hue correction feature.
  • You save time with the extensive shade library. It provides quick retrieval of existing formulations so there's no need to reformulate with each new shade.

Typical solutions to color formulation challenges include:

Color-Eye® 7000A or Color-Eye 3100 and Optimatch Textiles help you quickly achieve accurate and cost-effective matches. Both instruments offer variable aperture sizes, so you can measure from 25mm large areas to 3mm small areas (for textile printing applications). Plus, when working with the effects of optical brighteners and fluorescent whitening agents, you can easily set the UV component to a level equal to that found in natural daylight. This means that the system sees the color the same way you do in daylight and in stores with windows.

The Color-Eye 2180 and Optimatch Textiles offers an economical color formulation solution. The Color-Eye 2180 is a compact, benchtop spectrophotometer that provides the color measurement accuracy you've come to expect from GretagMacbeth.
