Upon completion of the acquisition, Industrial Physics customers will have the ability to measure the absolute thickness of coatings down to sub-micron levels more precisely; using advanced technology systems which are easily configured to measure webs, coils, flat sheets, small samples, or finished parts.

Chief Executive Officer at Industrial Physics, Barry Lyon, commented on the announcement: “In 2023, I shared my excitement regarding our vision for the future of Industrial Physics; building upon the existing portfolio to continue improving the range of solutions we offer to better support our customers. The acquisition of Sensory Analytics and its exclusive SpecMetrix® technologies is another successful step in that plan, complementing several of our existing product lines with laboratory, bench and in-line testing systems for precise coating thickness measurement. 

“We greatly value the unmatched SpecMetrix® technology, systems and Sensory’s inherent dedication to customer support, which will support our purpose at Industrial Physics to protect the integrity of brands and products. Now, together, we can provide an even stronger range of offerings to our customers.”

Greg Frisby, CEO of Sensory Analytics added: “We are proud to be joining Industrial Physics and collaborating to offer SpecMetrix® coating thickness measurement systems to manufacturing leaders worldwide. With industrial process digitalization demand growing rapidly, it is critical that packaging and other industrial professionals get better data in real time to ensure that safety and quality of products is not compromised. As part of Industrial Physics, we will have greater resources and global infrastructure to deliver our high-impact technology and process data to meet increasing global customer demand.”
