Automatchic™
Automatchic™ was first launched in 1993, and has since become AkzoNobel’s pioneering hand-held spectrophotometer. In its current form, in combination with our extensive database, it is the most accurate color-matching system available. Its high degree of accuracy dramatically reduces the likelihood of matching errors and eliminates the need to carry out re-works. In some cases, users report an average reduction of up to 20% in overall paint use after adopting Colorvation and its digital color tooling. Every aspect of Automatchic™ has been designed for convenience. The device is compact, easy to handle and operate, and requires minimal training. To streamline your workflow, Automatchic™ is Wi-Fi enabled. After reading the color at any location in your shop, it sends measurements directly to the mixing software on your PC, saving you time, while helping to ensure you maintain consistent and accurate results.
