Process reliability and efficiency are key factors for successful bodyshops. When it comes to speed and accuracy in colour matching, 100% digital colour management with the Phoenix Cloud delivers a flexible solution for refinishers. Now Spies Hecker is going one step further by optimising the processes in the mixing room with a fully automatic mixing system. The highlight: the new Daisy Wheel 3.0 dosing system is pre-loaded with ready-to-use Permahyd Hi-TEC 480 basecoats in bottles and takes care of the mixing process 100 % automatically. This eliminates a time-consuming step for the refinisher, who can use the time saved for more profitable repair tasks. The mixing machine is connected to the Phoenix colour software and, thanks to computer-controlled dosing, the colour formulas are accurate and mixed to the gram. The result: a perfectly mixed paint, faster and at the same time, a more efficient process in the bodyshop!
Time saver
A refinisher can spend the time saved on mixing doing more profitable tasks. Together with the fast drying products from Spies Hecker the time each repair spends in the spray booth can be minimised.
Space saver
The Daisy Wheel’s compact size allows it to fit easily into any bodyshop. With an ATEX and a NON-ATEX version of the Daisy Wheel it will always find a space.
Dosing with the new generation Daisy Wheel is now up to 30% faster*. Plus, the consistency and accuracy of the mixed colour is always perfect. Mixing smaller volumes accurately, e.g. for sprayouts and spot repairs is just as accurate.
* Compared to the previous Daisy Wheel generation.
A greener solution
Exactly dosed waterbased mixing tints and being able to mix even very small quantities of any repair formula reduces material waste and saves money too.
Closed system and user safety
Spies Hecker’s Permahyd Hi-TEC 480 waterborne basecoat is delivered in ready-filled bottles that can be easily replaced. Every bottle is scanned, and the paint level is monitored. A unique cleaning concept using a minimum of detergent keeps the dosing valves clean for precise dosing.
