Applications

Novasys Group Pty Ltd provides a wide range of products, processes and services that are used in the Food, Wine, Printing, Paint, Paper and Textile industries, and by research and quality assurance laboratories.

In general terms, Novasys Group provides products that address the following application areas:

Colour and Appearance

Industrial and domestic consumers of coloured products, whether food, motor vehicles, clothing, coatings or cosmetics, are using the consistency of colour and appearance of the finished products as a measure of intrinsic quality performance.

Formulations and recipes must not only be consistently repeatable and reproducible, but the product must also be monitored to check that this is being achieved in practice.

The colour and appearance of natural and processed foods, influence the consumer's choice before an opportunity to taste or smell arises.

In all cases, customers' expectations with respect to colour and appearance need to be met.

The companies below produce quality instrumentation for the assessment of colour and appearance.

Surface Characterization

Surfaces define the boundaries of liquids and solids with each other and gases and as well interact with electromagnetic radiation, including light.

Measurement of surface phenomena is being used routinely to solve industrial problems and improve product quality in many important areas of application.

Physical Analysis and Testing

Physical properties such as coating thickness, weight, density, moisture content and the adhesion of the coating to the substrate are all being routinely measured and can be easily compared to an established standard.
