Called Advanced Thermal Optics (ATO), the sensing means behind the system enables for highly accurate film thickness to be measured with a non-contact means on cured or uncured organic powder and powder enamel in a way that is extremely adaptable to the production environment.

Recent studies demonstrate that there is a new way to keep the industry just as effective, if not more so, while streamlining the R&D process, while saving both money and materials and better using one's staff. The key is digitizing research and development.

AW-LAKE COMPANY customized a Flow Management and Reporting Solution that automated EPA compliance of VOC emissions for an OEM manufacturer’s paint operations at three regional plants in Ohio.

Thermal oxidizers, or afterburners, are an effective method of controlling the VOCs, HAPs and odor-causing compounds from new drum manufacturing and drum reconditioning processes.

The Corrosion Inspector was designed to produce a fast and objective evaluation of filiform and other corrosion phenomena by digital analysis of coated test plates.

Because of the increased accuracy of data, measurements from spectrophotometers can be compared against standards, without the need to conduct parallel tests, effectively saving time and money in the process.

This technique provides the analyst with a "method map" for performing failure, material characterization and deformulation analyses.
