This week sees Labman exhibiting at the ever-popular European Coatings Show in Nuremberg, Germany. This year more than 1,100 exhibitors, the most ever at the show, will be showcasing the very latest in coating technologies. Beginning tomorrow, April 4th until Thursday April 6th, the show is a major event in the industry’s calendar, and our team have been hard at work over the past few weeks preparing for the exhibition. After putting the finishing touches to the stand today, our team in Nuremberg will be ready to showcase Labman’s capabilities to the tens of thousands of visitors that are expected to attend this amazing show.

Our stand will focus primarily on our TIDAS system, which was showcased to great effect last week at Coatings Korea by our distribution partners in the region, BLTec. This automated system, originally developed with Huntsman over 15 years ago, uses a Hegman gauge to measure the fineness of grind of samples, especially paint. TIDAS completely removes the objectivity and variability of results from manual operators, allowing companies with multiple users or even multiple sites to produce easily repeatable results.

If you are attending the show in Nuremberg this week, please stop by our stand in Hall 5 (Stand 5-131). Our representatives, Jo Batey, Simon Parker and Andy Brown, will be very happy to meet you and discuss your automation requirements, whether that be TIDAS or a custom robotic system.
