Q-Chain® LCM – Revolutionizing Paint Production with Fast, Precise Liquid Color Measurement. Available in One-Angle and Three-Angle Versions for Any Application.
Q-Chain® LCM from ORONTEC dramatically accelerates quality control and color matching by measuring liquid coatings directly in under 3 minutes. Whether you’re working with simple solid tones or complex metallic and interference pigments, the system is available in both a cost-efficient single-angle model and a powerful three-angle version for effect colors—offering unmatched precision, repeatability, and flexibility across your production process.
Versatile Control Across the Entire Paint Production Value Chain
Q-Chain® LCM is more than just a color measurement device—it’s a strategic tool for quality and process control from start to finish. At the raw material stage, it enables fast and precise evaluation of pigments and pigment preparations, including metallic and interference pigments when using the three-angle version. In the intermediate phase, it delivers consistent monitoring of semi-finished products such as slurries and dispersions, helping to ensure stable performance before they move downstream. Finally, for finished paints, Q-Chain® LCM ensures batch-to-batch color consistency with minimal need for correction, dramatically improving production efficiency and reducing cycle times.
