    X-Rite Incorporated and Pantone LLC jointly announced a new release of Color iMatch formulation software that accelerates color development for the paint and coatings, plastics and textile industries through better initial matches and fewer corrections. 
     
    The new version features a smarter multi-flux matching engine with a revolutionary new search and correct algorithm that enables better utilization of legacy data. 

    “In today’s just-in-time manufacturing environment, the first plastic, coating or textile supplier to deliver the best color match to a customer’s bid often secures the business,” said Richard Knapp, product manager, X-Rite and Pantone. “Speed and accuracy are essential – even as larger color palettes, complex materials and effect finishes add time to the formulation process. We have redesigned the formulation engine in Color iMatch to significantly improve initial match and correction performance, which can cut the number of steps in half to get an approved color match. This provides a significant competitive advantage to resin, colorant, pigment and dye suppliers helping them to submit bids quickly and win new business.” 

    The new version of Color iMatch release features:
    • Industry-leading multi-flux formulation engine that identifies the best candidate formulas, provides specific formulation guidance and incorporates leftover materials to work off waste. This increases the initial match rate by up to 50 percent, cuts correction steps in half and reduces waste;
    • New Search and Correct algorithm that uses proprietary search metrics to more accurately identify candidate formulas containing the most likely colorant combinations for more rapid formula convergence;
    • Optimize legacy data with colorant performance indicators and history-based dynamic correction factors to improve the formulation and reduce the number of correction steps;
    • Updated Colorant Assortment Editor provides specific guidance and guarantees match prediction confidence for maximized productivity and efficiency;
    • Dynamic formulation rules and batch processing allows users to quickly switch between jobs by standardizing process, material and customer specifications;
    • Gamut viewer to visually evaluate achievability using a unique target overlay to help users make educated formulation decisions.
    • Modern, intuitive interface that reduces training time and improves operator confidence
