PELT® finds a new home at BYK
This innovative product family makes it possible to detect and measure the thickness of each individual layer in a multilayer coating system.
In automotive coatings, for example, PELT® gauges can be used to determine whether the film thickness of the e-coat, primer, basecoat, or clearcoat layers have each been applied within specifications. A special feature is that this ultrasound-based technology can be used on metallic as well as non-metallic materials.
We are excited to be able to offer the industry standard PELT® thickness gauging technology.
BYK Instruments ensures the success of your color control
The selection of a suitable measuring instrument is the first step for a successful color quality control program. However, many more factors play a role that determine success or failure, such as the selection of the appropriate color difference equation or setting meaningful and achievable limits.
We would like to support you in leading your color control to a successful program.
Purchase a spectro2guide by end of this year and get a “BYK-Expert for FREE” > 2-days of free consulting onsite or via several online sessions.

A very different Kind of a Sphere
When dealing with color management, the term "Sphere" is associated with sphere geometry and LEDs with illuminants and thus, automatically makes you think of a color measurement instrument. Today, we would like to introduce you to a completely different kind of a “Sphere”:
With a diameter of 157 meters and 81,300 m² of surface area, The Sphere, which opened by the end of September in Las Vegas, is the largest spherical building in the world. 54,000 m² of the exterior surface are equipped with 57.6 million LEDs, which result in 1.2 million pixels and form the world's largest LED wall.
