Avantes’ transmission and reflection spectroscopy solutions offer powerful, non-destructive tools for quality control and material characterization in the plastics industry. By enabling precise measurement of optical properties such as color, thickness, transparency, and UV stability, these spectrometers help manufacturers monitor product consistency, detect defects, and ensure compliance with industry standards. Whether integrated in-line for real-time process monitoring or used in the lab for R&D, Avantes systems support greater efficiency and quality in plastic production and processing.
A leading medical plastics manufacturer turned to Avantes for a solution to evaluate the UV stability of their syringe products. They purchased a UV spectrometer system paired with a custom-built transmission probe, enabling them to perform precise and repeatable measurements of UV transmittance through the syringe material. This setup allowed the company to quantify UV tolerance and ensure compliance with stringent industry standards for medical packaging. With real-time spectral feedback, the team could quickly assess material performance, optimize formulations, and improve quality control processes—ultimately accelerating product development and boosting confidence in long-term syringe durability under UV exposure.
