*Thickness measurement functionality planned by 2027.

100% of the Production Measured

Inspection of multiple zones in few seconds. Contactless measurement. Any line speed.

Automatic Reports

Real-time production control. Automatic generation of quality reports.

REAL TIME CONTROL FOR REAL SPEED LINES

Reliable Quality Control

Rainbow is the perfect solution for quality control in continuous processes such as coil coating.

Construction

Large volumes and long production runs leave little room for rework.

Rainbow ensures consistent visual quality from the beginning, reducing scrap, avoiding costly downstream issues, and protecting brand reputation in architectural and construction materials.

White Goods

Surface quality directly impacts perceived value.

Rainbow enables quality issue detection, helping manufacturers maintain high aesthetic standards while minimizing waste and avoiding quality issues that would otherwise appear too late in the process.

Automotive and transportation parts

Consistency, traceability, and zero tolerance for defects.

Rainbow supports stable, repeatable quality control in high‑speed coil processes, helping manufacturers meet strict industry requirements without compromising production efficiency.
