Innovative Color-Recognition
with Rosendahl
Rosendahl developed an innovative sensor system
for color measurement in insulation lines.
The SK-400-C impresses with its easy operation
and stable production results. Color complaints
and faulty productions are now a thing of the
past.
This color-recognition sensor system is a novel sensor
for additional color monitoring in insulation systems.
The main component is the PC-based evaluation
unit with 360° camera surveillance. The precise
sensor unit of the system consists of 4 cameras and
is protected by a protective housing made of high-
quality stainless steel. The interior is sealed off from
extraneous light. This gives the manufacturer stable
and reproducible results.
The evaluation algorithm is based on the “LAB color
space”. It is used in color measurement worldwide
because it is very similar to human color perception.
The main and stripe colors, as well as the stripe width,
are measured according to previously set references.

Color deviations are detected immediately. This
enables reproducible and constant production. Scrap
and waste are significantly reduced, both at the start
of the production and during a color change. This
not only helps to save costs, but also pleases the
manufacturer. Additional production steps, such as
printing, are easy to integrate because the sensor is
completely insensitive to water and rotation.
With a maximum line speed of up to 2500 m / min,
this sensor system is also suitable for high-speed
applications. The system saves space and can be
integrated as a stand-alone unit in new or existing
systems.
