GAIN SCOPE

Supreme COlour Physics Expert -- Optimal Solution for Total Colour Management

SCOPE  features:

Textile Formulation Application

The textile industry is facing challenges to supply a larger variety of coloured batches against a background of environmental awareness, Gain SCOPE is a powerful, new generation, colour physics software designed to give production efficiency.

 Gain SCOPE uses Windows based software enhanced with powerful graphic functions. It is capable of driving a wide range of spectrophotometers, and provides comprehensive functions such as colour quality control and recipe formulation comparable to an expert.

True Colour Simulation 

Gain SCOPE employs unique technology to calibrate the monitor. The predicted colour can be accurately simulated under different illuminants, thus , reducing the time and cost of sample preparation.

Expert Match

Gain SCOPE offers many techniques to obtain formulations:

  • - Automatic Match
  • - Shade Library Search and Correct
  • - "Expert Match" adjusts match based on historical data.
  • - Corrections for Lab and Production

    Dyestuff Loading

    Two sets of calibration data, with unlimited concentration levels per dyestuff, can be loaded for achieving accurate recipe.

    Each dyestuff's 1/1 Standard Depth can also be predicted for QC purpose.

    Expert Tolerancing

    Gain SCOPE provided a large range of advanced quality control formulae such as CMC (1:C), CIE 94 (KL: KC), BFD (1:c) etc.

    The expert Tolerancing function enables users to setup individual customers requirements and optimize them based upon commercial biases.

    Colour Specification & Quality Control

    The R%, K / S, CIE colorimetric values and the Munsell coordinates can be displayed and plotted. Comprehensive QC functions include Whiteness, Colour difference, Colour fastness, Standard Depth, Strength, Metamerism, Opacity and Brightness.

    "Colour Constancy" and "Colour Appearance"  functions can predict the change of colour  appearance of a single sample prior to its production.

    Other Features

    The system applies the CMC (1:c) macro colour space for shade sorting. This ensures that batches in each lot can be used in a single garment. The Shade library stores each shede¡¦s historical recipes. The Spectral Check function ensures that the instrument used is always in the best working condition.

    Total Colour Management

     The formulation obtained from Gain SCOPE can be ported to Gain Dispenser for achieving accurate physical samples.
